Counting the upkeep before buying
Plenty of people buy white and regret it a month later. The right question before purchase is not which colour is prettier, but how many minutes a week you can give to cleaning a shoe.
Design philosophy
The grey gradient in the sole serves twice. Visually it stops the shoe reading as one black mass, and functionally it disguises the scuffing along the sidewall that appears quickly on pale midsoles.
Material quality and our inspection standard
During inspection we noticed the black outsole is cut deeper than on other versions we checked within the same range, which means better grip on smooth floors. The dark grey mesh also holds its shape under pressure without denting.
The acquisition experience
It arrives in brand packaging with a dust bag. If you plan to wear it daily, ask the concierge on WhatsApp about a spare footbed.
Styling
Black with dark grey works with everything, and it is the ideal choice for frequent travellers or anyone walking cities for hours. For black without contrast there is the 9060 triple black, and for classicism New Balance 990. Everything is in New Balance.
Frequently asked
How does it differ from the other black and grey
The build is very close, differing in mesh value and the size of the grey heel panel.
Does black heat up in the sun
It absorbs more heat than pale colours, though the mesh and thick sole soften the effect considerably.
How often does it need cleaning
A soft brush every fortnight is enough, far less than pale colours demand.
Does it handle work and long walking alike
Yes, and it is among the most practical options in the whole range.
