FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 9060 is comfortable for walking and casual play, it is primarily categorized as a lifestyle trainer and may not provide the same technical performance as a dedicated running shoe.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and the leather components. Hand cleaning is recommended.

How do I determine the right size for my child?

Measure the child's foot in centimeters or inches and refer to the standard New Balance UK size guide to match their measurements.

Are these trainers unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 9060 is designed as a unisex product suitable for all children.

What materials are the uppers made of?

The uppers are a composite of high-quality leather and breathable textile/mesh materials.

What is the main benefit of the ABZORB technology?

ABZORB technology provides superior impact absorption, which helps cushion the foot and reduce stress on joints during movement.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on mesh areas

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt, then wipe with a lightly dampened cloth.

Midsole appearing scuffed

Use a specialized rubber cleaner or a melamine sponge to gently buff away scuffs on the synthetic midsole pods.

Shoes feel tight after prolonged use

Ensure laces are not overtightened; if the fit remains uncomfortable, the foot may have grown and a larger size is required.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent impact absorption thanks to ABZORB technology
  • Stylish, modern chunky aesthetic
  • Durable leather and mesh material composition
  • Provides a stable and supportive base for all-day wear

Cons

  • The chunky design is heavier than standard athletic shoes
  • Limited to specific black/grey color profiles
  • Requires proper care due to leather components

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 9060 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  • Sizing: These trainers are available in various UK children's sizes; ensure a thumb's width of space at the front for proper growth.
  • Cleaning: Since the upper contains leather and textile, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the mesh areas. For leather, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can warp the rubber midsole or cause the leather to crack.
  • Maintenance: Check the outsoles periodically for debris caught in the midsole pods to maintain consistent grip and balance.
