FAQs

What is the ABZORB system in these trainers?

ABZORB is a New Balance technology that combines specific foam compounds to provide optimal cushioning and shock absorption, reducing impact stress on the feet and joints.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

The New Balance 9060 series, including the "Truffle Salt" model, is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good comfort and cushioning for walking, they are not engineered for high-impact sports or competitive running.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. These trainers are listed with UK adult sizes. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately for the best fit.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Excessive exposure to water can damage the suede and affect the comfort. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.

What other colors are available in the 9060 series?

The 9060 series is available in other colorways such as 'Khaki', 'Grey', 'Beige', and 'Rich Oak', as well as variations within the Grey and Purple families.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.

Is the 'Truffle Salt' colorway unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 9060 "Truffle Salt" trainers are designed as a unisex model, suitable for both men and women.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure laces are not overtightened. Try adjusting the lacing pattern. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe's width is suitable for your foot.

Suede material looks dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift dirt. For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner, following the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced grip on surfaces

Check the outsole for embedded debris. Clean the sole with a damp cloth. If the tread is significantly worn down, consider that the lifespan of the grip may be nearing its end.

Mesh sections appear worn or damaged

Avoid abrasive cleaning methods. Gently clean with a damp cloth. If the mesh is torn or significantly frayed, this indicates wear and tear that may require professional assessment or replacement.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush or a dry cloth to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Avoid getting the suede excessively wet.
  2. Cleaning Mesh: Gently wipe the mesh areas with a damp cloth. Mild soap can be used for tougher spots, but avoid harsh chemicals.
  3. Sole: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush.
  4. Drying: Always air dry the trainers away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
