FAQs
What age group is the New Balance 9060 youth trainer designed for?
This trainer is designed for kids and young individuals, referred to as 'youth' sizing.
What are the main cushioning technologies used in this shoe?
The New Balance 9060 features ABZORB and SBS cushioning platforms for enhanced comfort and support.
What is the primary design inspiration for the 9060 series?
The design is inspired by the refined style of the classic 99X series, reinterpreted with a Y2K-era futuristic, visible tech aesthetic.
How should I clean the trainers?
Spot clean with a mild soap and damp cloth. Remove laces for separate cleaning. Allow to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
While they offer good cushioning and support for active play, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers with a strong aesthetic focus. For high-impact sports, specialized athletic footwear might be more appropriate.
What does 'sway bars' refer to in the shoe's design?
Sway bars are design elements derived from the 990 series that have been expanded and utilized throughout the upper of the 9060 to create a sense of visible motion and visual interest.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as this can damage the materials and construction. Spot cleaning is the preferred method.
Troubleshooting
Sizing seems incorrect.
Refer to the New Balance size chart for youth footwear and ensure accurate foot measurements. Different models can have slight variations.
Color transfer from fabric to socks.
This can sometimes occur with new, brightly colored footwear. It is recommended to wear dark socks initially. Repeated washing of the shoes (following care instructions) may reduce this tendency.
Materials appear stiff or difficult to bend.
New shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to conform to the foot's shape.
