Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 9060 trainers in Grey Moonbeam are designed for adult males seeking a blend of speed, agility, and comfort. Offering a JD-exclusive colorway, these trainers feature a breathable mesh upper with supportive suede and leather overlays, a cushioned midsole with ABZORB and SBS technology for exceptional comfort, and a durable rubber outsole for reliable grip. A potential caveat for some users might be the relatively thick and curvy midsole design, which, while stylish and functional, may require a brief adjustment period for those accustomed to flatter footwear.

FAQs

What is the main benefit of the ABZORB and SBS cushioning?

ABZORB and SBS cushioning provide superior shock absorption and a comfortable, responsive feel underfoot, reducing impact during wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

While designed for speed and agility, they are best suited for daily wear, training, and shorter runs. For marathon distances, specialized running shoes with different support structures might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used sparingly, followed by air drying. Avoid excessive moisture.

What does 'JD-exclusive' mean for this colorway?

'JD-exclusive' means this specific Moonrock/Moonbeam colorway is only available for purchase through JD Sports or its associated retailers.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The mesh upper is not fully waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain may saturate the materials. Using a suede protector spray can offer some water resistance.

What is the primary material used for the upper?

The upper is primarily constructed with breathable mesh, complemented by leather and suede overlays for structure and style.

How does the sizing compare to other New Balance models?

Sizing can vary slightly between models. It is recommended to check the New Balance size guide or try them on if possible for the best fit, as fit can be subjective.

Troubleshooting

Tight fit upon initial wear

Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure laces are not over-tightened. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct.

Discoloration of suede or mesh

Avoid exposure to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently with appropriate cleaners for suede and mesh. Consult care instructions for specific cleaning methods.

Reduced grip or slippery sole

Clean the outsole regularly to remove embedded dirt or debris. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before use on smooth surfaces.
