New Balance 9060 “Sea Salt/Raincloud” U9060HSC

The New Balance 9060 has been an unexpected success for the brand, offering heritage in a futuristic package.

Joe Freshgoods helped debut the model in May 2022 to much fanfare. Follow-up releases have experienced similar fervor, although the silhouette has become an easily-accessible option for casual and savvy fans alike. The plethora of overlays across the New Balance shoe’s upper has allowed for multi-colored arrangements, but the NB 9060 has also enjoyed a healthy number of tonal styles. A recent “Sea Salt” and “Raincloud” finish emerged on the sneaker, adding yet another tally to its simple, near-uniform looks. The off white hues have also landed on other popular New Balances over the past year, delivering easy-to-wear footwear that arguably looks better with wear. Branding and other supporting accents throughout the shoe invoke Boston-based heritage, while surrounding components keep things clean. Lastly, the robust sole unit underfoot indulges in an “aged” aesthetic that compliments the remainder of the design.

Enjoy detailed photos of the shoes ahead, and anticipate a newbalance.com launch by the time autumn rolls around.
