New Balance 9060 - Black

Generally, New Balance trainers tend to fit true to size. However, fit can vary slightly based on individual foot shape. We recommend checking specific sizing guides if available or trying them on if possible.

While the ABZORB cushioning offers excellent comfort, the New Balance 9060 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear trainer, inspired by heritage running shoes. For dedicated running or high-impact workouts, specialized performance running shoes are recommended.

To protect the suede, it's recommended to apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear. Regular cleaning with a suede brush and using a suede eraser for minor marks will also help maintain its appearance.

No, the New Balance 9060, particularly with its suede upper, is not waterproof. Exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions should be limited, as water can damage suede. Consider a protective spray for light moisture resistance.

ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that offers superior cushioning and compression resistance. It's designed to absorb the force of impact, providing a comfortable and responsive feel underfoot.

A 'low-profile' trainer typically refers to shoes that have a thinner sole or sit closer to the ground, offering a more minimalist or sleek silhouette compared to bulkier designs. It suggests a closer connection to the ground and often a lighter feel.

> Info needed: [Specific width options for this model. New Balance often offers various widths, but it's not specified for this particular variant.] Generally, New Balance offers a range of widths. We recommend checking the product specifications or trying them on to determine suitability for wider feet.

Check if the laces are too tight or rubbing. Sometimes, a light sprinkle of baby powder under the insole can reduce friction-related squeaks.

Ensure you have the correct size. The padded tongue and cuff should provide comfort, but a short break-in period might be needed. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to alleviate pressure points. Wearing appropriate socks can also help.

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals.

Clean the durable rubber outsole thoroughly. Dirt, mud, or debris can accumulate in the textured grip patterns. Use a stiff brush and mild soap with water to restore traction.
