FAQs

What kind of cushioning does the New Balance 9060 use?

The New Balance 9060 features a combination of ABZORB and SBS cushioning in its sculpted pod midsole. This provides exceptional comfort and shock absorption for all-day wear.

Is the New Balance 9060 true to size?

Generally, New Balance sneakers, including the 9060, are considered true to size. However, individual foot shapes vary. It's recommended to try them on or refer to New Balance's sizing guide if unsure.

How do I clean the pigskin suede upper?

For pigskin suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and a suede eraser for minor marks. For deeper cleaning, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions and always allow to air dry. Avoid using water directly on suede.

Can I use the New Balance 9060 for running or sports?

The New Balance 9060 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and fashion sneaker, offering exceptional comfort for everyday wear and walking. While it provides good cushioning, it is not engineered for high-performance running or intense sports activities.

What does 'Y2K-inspired design' mean for this shoe?

The 'Y2K-inspired design' refers to aesthetic cues from the late 1990s and early 2000s. For the 9060, this translates to a bold, chunky silhouette, expanded proportions, and dynamic design lines, reimagining elements from New Balance's iconic 99X series with a futuristic twist.

Is the New Balance 9060 suitable for wide feet?

The 9060 typically comes in standard widths. While the toe box offers a comfortable fit, individuals with particularly wide feet may find it snug. New Balance does offer some models in wider widths, but for the 9060, it's best to try them on or check specific variant availability for wider options if concerned.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap. Brush in one direction for best results. For stubborn areas, a suede eraser can help lift dirt and refresh the texture.

Shoes feel too tight or loose.

Ensure you have the correct size. The 9060 is designed for a snug yet comfortable fit. Adjust your lacing style; looser lacing can provide more room, while tighter lacing offers more support. Consider trying different sock thicknesses.

Squeaking sound from the sole.

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, under the insole, to reduce friction between components. If the squeak persists, check for any debris lodged in the outsole.

Difficult to clean stubborn stains on suede.

For tough stains, it's recommended to use a professional suede cleaner or take them to a shoe care specialist. Avoid harsh household cleaners, as they can permanently damage the suede.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Comfort: The combination of ABZORB and SBS cushioning delivers remarkable comfort for extended wear.
  • Unique, Bold Aesthetic: Its Y2K-inspired design and expanded proportions make a strong fashion statement.
  • Premium Material Quality: Constructed with a blend of breathable mesh and durable pigskin suede.
  • Enhanced Stability: Features like sway bars and the CR device contribute to a secure and supportive feel.
  • Versatile Styling: Despite its bold look, it pairs well with a wide range of casual and contemporary outfits.

Cons

  • Distinctive Design: The Y2K-inspired, chunky profile might not appeal to everyone or suit more understated styles.
  • Suede Maintenance: The pigskin suede upper requires specific care and cleaning to maintain its appearance.
  • Bulkier Feel: Due to its sculpted sole and expanded features, it may feel larger or heavier than some other sneakers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The New Balance 9060 is ready to wear right out of the box. Simply unbox, lace them up, and adjust to your preferred tightness for a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent slippage during wear.

Compatibility

This sneaker features a unisex design and a Brown colour_family, making it a versatile addition to almost any wardrobe. It pairs well with jeans, chinos, joggers, and shorts, complementing a range of casual and streetwear styles. Its bold design allows it to be a focal point of your outfit.

Care Instructions

Maintaining the aesthetic and longevity of your New Balance 9060, particularly its mesh and pigskin suede upper, requires specific attention:

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede and nubuck. This creates a protective barrier against spills and dirt.
  2. Regular Cleaning (Mesh): For mesh areas, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a mild soap solution (e.g., diluted dish soap) and a soft cloth, dabbing gently. Avoid saturating the mesh.
  3. Regular Cleaning (Pigskin Suede):
  • Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap.
  • For tougher stains, use a specialized suede eraser or cleaner. Apply gently and brush away residue.
  • Avoid water and harsh chemicals directly on suede, as this can stain or damage the material.
  1. Midsole & Outsole: Clean the sculpted midsole and diamond outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and grime. A soft-bristled brush can help with hard-to-reach areas.
  2. Drying: Always allow your sneakers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can warp materials or cause discolouration.
  3. Storage: Store sneakers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to prevent dust accumulation.
