FAQs

What makes the cushioning in the New Balance 9060 special?

The New Balance 9060 features a midsole enhanced with soft EVA foam and Abzorb technology. Abzorb is specifically designed to absorb and disperse impact energy, providing superior comfort and reducing stress on your feet and joints during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 9060 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual wear trainer, emphasizing comfort and style for everyday use. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running activities, which typically require specialized running shoe technology.

How do I clean the leather parts of the trainers?

To clean the leather, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap. Gently wipe the surface to remove dirt. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the leather finish. Always allow them to air dry.

What kind of outfits do these trainers go well with?

The 9060's modern design makes them versatile. They complement casual outfits like jeans and t-shirts, as well as more styled looks involving transitional sports jackets or athleisure wear. They are a great addition to a contemporary wardrobe.

Is the 'Vintage Indigo' color accurate to the description?

The 'Vintage Indigo' typically refers to a deep, somewhat muted shade of blue. Actual color perception can vary slightly based on screen settings and lighting conditions, but it generally represents a classic, stylish blue hue.

What is the purpose of the aggressive rubber outsole?

The aggressive tread pattern on the rubber outsole is designed to provide enhanced grip and stability on a variety of surfaces, helping to prevent slips and ensuring confident footing during daily activities.

How does the U9060 series differ from other New Balance series?

The U9060 series typically represents a modern interpretation of New Balance heritage, often featuring updated cushioning technology, contemporary design elements, and materials suited for lifestyle wear, differentiating it from more performance-focused or classic archival models.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or in any areas where friction is apparent. Ensure insoles are properly seated.

Discomfort or pressure points

Ensure you have the correct size and width. Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. If discomfort persists, check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation.

Reduced grip on surfaces

The rubber outsole may accumulate dirt or debris over time, reducing its grip. Clean the outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any embedded material. Ensure the surfaces you are walking on are not excessively wet or slippery.

Material creasing excessively

Creasing is natural with leather and synthetic materials. To minimize it, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Store the shoes with shoe trees if possible to maintain their shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent comfort due to EVA foam and Abzorb technology.
  • Durable construction with a mix of leather, mesh, and synthetic materials.
  • Superior grip and stability provided by the aggressive rubber outsole.
  • Versatile styling options for casual and athletic wear.
  • Modern design appealing to contemporary fashion trends.

Cons

  • The aggressive tread may be more pronounced than desired for some minimalist styles.

  • Specific sizing (UK 9.5) may limit immediate availability for all customers.
  • Leather material requires appropriate care to maintain its appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The New Balance 9060 trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.

Compatibility: These trainers are highly compatible with a wide range of casual and athletic apparel. They pair well with jeans, shorts, track pants, and athleisure wear. For styling, consider them a versatile option for completing a modern, relaxed look.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: For the leather and synthetic components, use a damp cloth with mild soap to gently clean away dirt and marks. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Mesh: The mesh panels can be carefully spot-cleaned with a soft brush and a mild detergent solution. Allow them to air dry naturally.
  3. Suede (if applicable to specific colorways): Use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dirt and maintain texture. For stains, consider a suede cleaner.
  4. Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them separately in warm, soapy water.
  5. Drying: Never machine dry or use direct heat sources to dry the trainers, as this can damage the materials. Air dry them away from direct sunlight.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
