Product Information

Full details

The New Balance 9060 'Workwear' trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of retro and futuristic style for everyday casual wear. The key benefit is their unique Y2K-inspired aesthetic combined with modern comfort technologies. A potential caveat is that the 'Workwear' colorway, while distinctive, may be more suited for casual occasions than formal settings. These trainers feature an extended upper inspired by the 990 series and an ABZORB and SBS cushioning platform for enhanced comfort and support.

FAQs

What does 'Workwear' refer to in the New Balance 9060?

'Workwear' refers to the specific colorway and aesthetic of these trainers, inspired by practical and durable work-inspired styles, but reinterpreted with a modern, Y2K-influenced design. The color scheme includes earthy tones like brown and yellow.

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

The New Balance 9060 'Workwear' is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer. While it offers good cushioning and support for walking and everyday activities, it is not optimized for high-impact sports like running.

What materials are used in the New Balance 9060 'Workwear'?

The 'Workwear' iteration typically uses a combination of materials including nylon, leather, and potentially suede or mesh, depending on the specific design elements. This provides a mix of durability, breathability, and visual texture.

How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?

For suede sections, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner is recommended. Always brush in one direction and allow to dry naturally. Avoid using water directly on suede.

Is the New Balance 9060 'Workwear' a unisex model?

While the 9060 silhouette is often available in unisex sizing and styles, the specific 'Workwear' colorway described here (U9060WOR-110) is listed as Male. However, New Balance does offer variations that cater to a unisex market.

What is the main difference between the 9060 and other New Balance series like the 990?

The 9060 takes design cues from the 990 series, such as the extended upper, but features a more contemporary, Y2K-inspired silhouette and often incorporates more advanced cushioning technologies like the SBS platform, offering a distinct blend of heritage and future-forward design.

What UK shoe size does 'UK 11' correspond to?

UK 11 is a standard adult men's shoe size in the United Kingdom, typically referring to a larger foot size.

Troubleshooting

Uneven fit or discomfort

Ensure laces are properly tied, not too tight or too loose. Try different sock thicknesses. If persistent, consider the possibility of needing a different size or width.

Discoloration or staining

For light stains on nylon or mesh, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth. For suede or nubuck, use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced cushioning feel over time

While designed for durability, cushioning can naturally degrade with extensive use. Ensure proper care to maximize lifespan. For significant loss of cushioning, replacement may be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As footwear, the New Balance 9060 'Workwear' trainers require no setup. Simply lace them up and wear them.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult use and are generally compatible with most casual attire. They are suitable for varied foot shapes due to their design, but individual fit can vary.

Care:

  • Cleaning: For minor dirt, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid excessive water.

  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to maintain their shape and protect from dust.
