FAQs

What is the main inspiration behind the 9060 design?

The 9060 trainers draw inspiration from the Y2K era, reinterpreting familiar 99X elements with a focus on visible technology and a futuristic aesthetic.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

While designed as unisex trainers, the fit can vary. It's recommended to check customer reviews or try them on if possible, and ensure the lacing is adjusted for comfort.

How do I clean the suede and mesh materials?

Suede should be cleaned with a brush or specialized eraser, and mesh with mild soap and water. Always air dry and avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.

What makes the cushioning system special?

The trainers utilize New Balance's ABZORB and SBS cushioning technologies, which are designed to provide superior shock absorption and support for comfortable wear.

Can these trainers be worn by both boys and girls?

Yes, the unisex design and versatile grey and beige colorway make them suitable for children of any gender.

What is the best way to ensure I order the correct size?

Measure your child's foot length and compare it to the New Balance sizing guide. Pay attention to the UK size listed, and consider measuring their current best-fitting shoe for reference.

How durable are these trainers for active children?

The combination of suede and mesh materials, along with a robust sole construction, is designed for durability during everyday activities. However, consistent heavy wear may impact longevity.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. Adjust lacing as needed for a snug but comfortable fit.

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth, then allow to air dry completely before wearing.

Cushioning feels less effective over time.

The ABZORB and SBS cushioning is designed for long-term use, but performance may naturally decrease with extensive wear. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn out. Proper care can help maintain cushioning.

Odors developing inside the shoe.

Remove the insoles and air them out separately. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out. Ensure feet are dry before putting on the shoes.
