Matt Varga If any brand best represents where the sneaker game is a quarter through the century, it’s New Balance. If any shoe best represents their approach, it’s the New Balance 9060, carving out a sizeable lane in lifestyle footwear through a combination of dad shoe aesthetics and all-day comfort. With the dozens upon dozens of colorways that the Boston brand printed on the 9060 now in the rear view, the new year brings a return to roots for the silhouette, emerging in a conservative black and grey combination.
Lifestyle looks remain the bread and butter for the silhouette, almost eschewing link-up efforts entirely in 2024 as general release pairs now outnumber collab efforts nearly ten to one. Though we’ve seen this sort of steely take on the shoe plenty of times before, ushering in a fresh easily-worn edition is thus a cogent play, tapping into the enduring demand for the comfort-minded model, still sporting all-day tech with a combination of ABZRB and SBS cushioning.
Look for the New Balance 9060 “Black/Grey” on NewBalance.com and local retailer shelves in the coming weeks. Retail is set at $150.
