New Balance U9060EEC Olivine The New Balance 9060 Olivine is a sneaker that pays homage to the design of the 99X model with several modern and futuristic updates.This iteration of the New Balance 9060 is made with a high-quality leather and breathable mesh upper. Light olive green mesh forms the base of the upper, while leather and synthetic overlays adorn the midsole, toe, and heel in different shades of green. The New Balance "N" logo appears on the midsoles under the laces, with one of them being solid white outlined in green and the other being made up of white dashes. The heel collar is a dark olive green and displays the "NB" logo, while the "NB 9060" logo appears on the tongue. The durable rubber outsole provides excellent grip, while the sole is cushioned with ABZORB cushioning. Our favorite feature of this shoe is the muted green colorway. This allows the shoe to exude style and functionality in a subtle way. The New Balance 9060 Olivine was released on March 30, 2024, for a retail price of $160. The 9060 is a new expression of the refined style and innovation-led design of the classic 99X series. The 9060 reinterprets familiar 99X elements with a warped sensibility inspired by the proudly futuristic, visible tech aesthetic of the Y2K era. Sway bars, taken from the 990, are expanded and utilized throughout the entire upper for a sense of visible motion, while wavy lines and scaled up proportions on a sculpted pod midsole place an exaggerated emphasis on the familiar cushioning platforms of ABZORB and SBS. | New Balance Unisex 9060 in Green Suede/Mesh, size 8. 5
