FAQs
What makes the 9060 'Blue Haze' different from other New Balance models?
The 9060 series often features a more contemporary, bold design inspired by Y2K aesthetics, combined with modern comfort technologies. The 'Blue Haze' colorway offers a specific aesthetic blend of blue and beige.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
No, the New Balance 9060 trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort for daily activities. They do not provide the specialized support or cushioning required for marathon running.
How should I clean the synthetic and mesh upper?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap and cool water. Gently scrub away dirt and wipe clean. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information can vary by retailer and region. Please refer to the point of purchase or the official New Balance website for specific warranty details applicable to your purchase.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some grip, the synthetic and mesh upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof footwear is recommended.
What type of socks are best to wear with these trainers?
For optimal comfort and breathability, consider wearing moisture-wicking athletic socks made from materials like polyester blends or merino wool. Cotton socks can retain moisture.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The New Balance 9060 model is available in various colorways. Specific availability may depend on the retailer and current stock.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels off
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a different size or consulting the New Balance size guide. Fit can vary between individuals.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Check the outsole for excessive wear or debris. Clean the rubber tread with water and a brush. If the outsole is significantly worn, replacement may be necessary.
Discomfort during prolonged wear
Ensure the laces are adjusted for a comfortable fit without being too tight. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially.
Upper material appears dirty
Spot clean the affected area using a soft cloth with mild soap and cool water. Gently brush away dirt, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
