Care
Proper care will help extend the life and maintain the appearance of your New Balance 9060 sneakers.
- Cleaning the Mesh: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water to gently clean mesh areas. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
- Cleaning the Suede/Pigskin: Suede requires special care. Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner and eraser are recommended. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: After cleaning, allow the sneakers to air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage materials.
- Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and textile sneakers to help protect them from elements.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
