FAQs
What are the main materials used in the New Balance 9060 'Driftwood'?
These sneakers primarily feature a combination of soft Pale Pink suede panels and creamy leather accents, with a mesh foundation.
How should I clean the suede parts of the shoe?
Gently brush off dry dirt with a soft-bristled brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, testing in an inconspicuous area first. Always allow suede to air dry.
Are these sneakers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 'Driftwood' are primarily designed for casual wear and lifestyle. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running activities.
What does the 'Driftwood' in the name refer to?
'Driftwood' likely refers to the earthy, natural-toned color palette of the sneaker, which includes the 'Stone Pink Sea Salt' shades.
What is the recommended way to store these sneakers?
Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and light. Avoid storing them in direct sunlight or humid conditions.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the suede can be treated with protectant spray, it is not recommended for heavy rain. Suede can be permanently damaged by excessive moisture.
What sizes are available for the New Balance 9060 'Driftwood'?
These sneakers are available in various adult sizes. Please check the product listing for the specific UK size availability, such as UK 9.5 as indicated for this guide.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained.
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, apply a small amount of suede cleaner with a clean cloth and gently work the stain. Allow to air dry and brush again.
Laces are worn out.
Replace laces with a similar color or a contrasting one to refresh the look. New Balance offers replacement laces, or you can find compatible ones from other brands.
Sole feels stiff.
Ensure the shoes fit correctly. The chunky midsole is designed for support and may require a short break-in period. Consistent wear will help them mold to your feet.
