FAQs

What is Abzorb cushioning?

Abzorb is a proprietary New Balance cushioning technology that provides excellent shock absorption and energy return. It's designed to reduce impact forces and offer superior comfort during activity and everyday wear.

Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?

While providing excellent comfort and cushioning, the New Balance 9060 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker. For serious running or performance sports, New Balance offers dedicated athletic footwear lines.

How do I ensure the best fit?

New Balance shoes generally run true to size, but individual foot shapes vary. We recommend referring to New Balance's official sizing chart and, if possible, trying them on to ensure the most comfortable fit for your foot, especially considering the UK 11 sizing.

What materials are used in the upper of the New Balance 9060 Charcoal?

The upper features a combination of breathable mesh as the base, reinforced with durable suede overlays in a matching Charcoal color for support and a premium feel.

When was the New Balance 9060 Charcoal released?

This specific model, the New Balance 9060 Charcoal, was released on July 31, 2024.

Can I machine wash my New Balance 9060 sneakers?

No, it is strongly advised against machine washing these sneakers. Machine washing can damage the suede, mesh, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Please follow the manual cleaning instructions provided in the 'Care Instructions' section.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper stains, apply a high-quality suede cleaner following its instructions. Always test on a small, hidden area first.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the lacing pattern or wearing thinner socks. If discomfort persists, consider trying a half size up (if available) as shoe fit can vary.

Midsole or outsole looks discolored or scuffed.

Clean the midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For scuffs, a magic eraser can sometimes carefully lift marks from rubber parts of the midsole. For deeper wear, consider professional shoe restoration.

Shoes develop an odor.

Ensure your feet are clean and dry before wearing. Use odor-absorbing inserts or sprays designed for footwear. Allow shoes to air out thoroughly between wears, removing insoles if possible.
