FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 9060 features performance cushioning technology, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for daily use rather than a dedicated track running shoe.
What material is the upper made from?
The upper is constructed from durable polyester, designed to balance breathability with structural support.
Do these shoes provide good arch support?
Yes, the combination of the sculpted pod midsole and the sway bar construction offers significant stability and support for children's feet.
How do I determine the right size?
New Balance sizes follow standard UK sizing; ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe for proper comfort.
Can these shoes be put in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as the heat and agitation can damage the ABZORB and SBS cushioning components.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the mesh or polyester panels
Gently scrub with a soft brush and a mixture of water and mild soap, then allow to air dry completely.
Midsole looks scuffed from play
Use a magic eraser or a soft cloth dampened with mild soap to carefully buff the scuff marks on the rubberized sections.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for ease of use right out of the box. To ensure they stay in top condition:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt from the polyester upper. For stubborn stains, apply a mild detergent diluted with water to a cloth and gently wipe the affected areas.
- Drying: Always air dry the trainers at room temperature. Avoid placing them directly near heaters or in direct sunlight, as this can degrade the midsole cushioning materials.
- Fit: Ensure the size is appropriate for the child's foot growth stage to maximize the benefit of the pod midsole support.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the integrity of the synthetic materials.
