Our take on the New Balance 9060 Silver Grey (GS)

The New Balance 9060 is a kids' lifestyle sneaker that takes the 99X running line and exaggerates it: sculpted overlays, a wavy swollen midsole and a high-wrapping heel. ABZORB and SBS cushioning from the performance line keep the oversized shape comfortable for everyday wear. It suits kids and teens who want a chunky, fashion-forward shoe, and it runs true to size with a roomy forefoot. Against slimmer retro runners, it trades a low profile for bulk and plush cushioning.
