FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
The New Balance 9060 White Navy trainers are designed with ABZORB and SBS cushioning for everyday comfort and light athletic use. For marathon running, specialized high-performance running shoes are generally recommended.
How do I clean the white mesh parts without them turning yellow?
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and cool water solution. Gently scrub the mesh. Avoid using bleach or hot water, as these can damage the material and cause yellowing. Always air dry away from direct heat.
What is the primary material used for the overlays?
The overlays are made of leather, providing structure and durability to the white mesh upper.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some traction, the mesh upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may affect the materials and comfort.
What is the main technology in the midsole?
The midsole features a dual-density construction incorporating ABZORB and SBS cushioning technologies for enhanced shock absorption and support.
How do the sizes compare to other New Balance models?
The 9060 series generally runs true to size. However, fit can vary slightly by individual foot shape. It is recommended to consult New Balance's official sizing chart for the most accurate measurement.
Is this a limited edition release?
The New Balance 9060 White Navy was released on June 16th, 2023. While specific availability may vary, it is part of the general 9060 collection.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods initially.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a similar durable pair. Ensure knots are not tied excessively tight during wear.
Slight color transfer from navy accents
This is more likely to occur when the shoe is new or wet. Allow the shoe to dry completely and avoid contact with light-colored materials when damp. Professional shoe cleaner for leather and suede may help remove minor transfer marks.
Midsole creasing or deformation
Some creasing in the midsole is normal with wear. Avoid folding the shoes sharply when storing. Ensure proper fit to prevent excessive stress on the midsole.
