The Sydney Levrone 9060R’s futuristic silhouette and soft tonal palette demand precision when it comes to lace selection.

Light Grey - Thin Oval Laces

The Sydney Levrone 9060R already sits on a heavy, sculpted sole, so adding thick rope laces can easily make the top look cluttered. Going with our Light Grey Thin Oval Laces keeps the overall look clean and balanced. They lay smooth across the tongue, tie up tight, and won't slip loose while you're wearing them.

Why Light Grey Thin Ovals Work

The Sydney Levrone 9060R color way is all about soft, muted tones, and premium layers. Pure white laces can jump out as too bright, while dark grey or black laces can overpower the pair. Light Grey hits the exact sweet spot by blending seamlessly into the color way while maintaining a cohesive aesthetic.

Frequently Asked Questions

What lace length fits the Sydney Levrone 9060R?

For the Sydney Levrone x New Balance 9060R, a 54" lace length is recommended for a standard fit tied with a classic bow across its 6 to 7 eyelets. If you prefer a loose laced, untied look with minimal dangle on the sides, opt for a 45" lace instead.

Should I use flat or rope laces on a Sydney Levrone 9060R?

For the Sydney Levrone x New Balance 9060R, thin oval (4.8–5mm) or flat laces are recommended over rope laces. Because the 9060R features a bold midsole paired with thick rope laces tend to crowd the eyelets and create unnecessary bulk at the front of the shoe. A flat or thin oval lace lays smooth across the tongue, maintaining the sneaker's sleek lines while providing a clean finish that holds a tight knot all day.

What color laces go best with a Sydney Levrone 9060R?

For the Sydney Levrone x New Balance 9060R, Light Grey Thin Oval Laces are the top recommendation to seamlessly complement the sneaker's subtle suede and mesh accents. Sail or Cream laces bring out the warm underlays for a soft vintage vibe. Classic White provides a crisp contrast against the darker overlays. Tonal Beige creates a monochromatic look.
