Is the New Balance 9060 good for all-day walking?

Yes. The ABZORB midsole is cushioned and supportive, and owners commonly wear it for full days on foot. The chunky sole adds weight, so it is not the lightest option.

How does the 9060 compare with the 2002R?

The 9060 has a bulkier, more sculpted sole and a more layered upper. The 2002R is lower-profile and lighter. Both use ABZORB cushioning, so comfort is close; the choice is mostly about how chunky a look you want.

Does the 9060 run true to size?

Reports are mixed. Some wearers find it roomy and size down, while others stay with their usual size. The layered upper has little stretch, so a snug fit at first is normal.

Can you run in the New Balance 9060?

It is a lifestyle shoe, not a running shoe. The cushioning and outsole are built for walking and everyday wear, not for training mileage.

What is underfoot on the 9060?

An ABZORB foam midsole in a sculpted, pod-style shape, with a rubber outsole for traction. That combination gives the soft, supportive feel and the signature wavy profile.

Is the 9060 a unisex shoe?

The 9060 is sold in men's and women's versions with their own sizing. This listing is the women's version, so check the size conversion if you usually buy men's sizing.
