FAQs
What age group are the New Balance 9060 trainers designed for?
These trainers are designed for kids and youth, with a unisex fit. Available sizes cater to children's foot sizes.
Are these trainers suitable for sports activities?
The 9060 trainers offer good everyday comfort and support, but they are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers and not for specialized high-impact sports training.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper of this specific model is made of leather, providing durability and a premium look.
How does the 9060 compare to other New Balance series?
The 9060 is a new expression of the classic 99X series, incorporating Y2K-inspired design elements and a more pronounced, sculpted midsole with advanced cushioning technologies like ABZORB and SBS.
Can these trainers be machine washed?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and construction of the trainers. Hand-cleaning is the preferred method.
What is the main benefit of the ABZORB and SBS cushioning?
ABZORB technology absorbs impact, while SBS (Sumil-based Silicone) provides cushioning and stability, working together to offer comfort and support for daily wear.
How do I find the correct size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for kids' footwear. It's recommended to measure your child's foot and compare it to the provided measurements for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Scuffs or marks on leather
Gently wipe with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner and follow product instructions.
Discoloration of cushioning pods
Clean with a damp cloth. Avoid excessive exposure to direct sunlight, which can sometimes affect colour over time.
Slightly loose fit
Tighten the laces to achieve a more secure fit. If the shoe remains too loose, consider using insoles for a snugger feel.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For stubborn stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a damp cloth or a soft brush to clean the midsole and rubber outsole. Remove any dirt or debris.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
- Laces: Remove laces before cleaning for a more thorough wash. They can be hand-washed with mild soap and water.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
