New Balance is prepared to drop another tonal iteration of the signature 9060 sneaker model as it gets a red and blue colorway update this time around. The shoe boasts a split tonal design and has a mixed material construction featuring premium suede and mesh at the base.
The forefoot features a Bordeaux red along the mesh base and a deeper red that makes up the shaggy suede overlays on top. This is followed by a white outlined grey N logo on the lateral side of the shoe and marine blue makes up the suede overlays on the other side of the shoe. This is detailed with a deeper blue that makes up the mesh base under.
