FAQs
Are New Balance 9060 trainers true to size?
Yes, most users find that the 9060 fits true to size, though the layered upper may feel slightly more snug than other models.
Can I put my 9060 trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede footwear as it can damage the materials and structural integrity of the shoe.
What is the difference between ABZORB and ABZORB SBS?
ABZORB provides standard shock absorption, while ABZORB SBS is an enhanced foam compound that offers increased cushioning and stability.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they utilize performance cushioning technology, the 9060 is designed as a lifestyle and fashion trainer, not for dedicated long-distance running.
How do I protect the brown suede from water?
It is recommended to use a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or light stains on the suede upper
Use a soft suede brush to gently stroke the area in one direction to remove surface debris.
Creasing near the toe box
This is common with suede footwear; use a cedar shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the shoe's shape.
Loss of cushioning feel over time
Check the interior for debris and ensure the original insole is correctly positioned, as shifting insoles can alter the feeling of the cushioning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 9060 trainers maintain their appearance, regular care is essential. Since the upper is constructed from premium suede, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or muddy conditions to prevent staining and water damage. If the shoes become dirty, use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt and restore the nap of the material. For deeper cleaning, use products specifically formulated for suede and leather. Ensure you allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the midsole or stiffen the suede. For optimal fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate size for your foot width, as the structured, layered upper provides a snug lockdown.
