FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 trainers feature advanced cushioning like ABZORB and SBS, making them comfortable for everyday wear and light activities. However, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers and may not offer the specific support or features required for serious or long-distance running.
How do I clean the White/Grey colourway?
For the white mesh and grey synthetic upper, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water. Avoid harsh chemicals. For any leather or suede elements, use appropriate cleaners for those materials. Always air dry.
What does the '9060' in the name signify?
The 9060 series represents a reimagining of New Balance's heritage, specifically drawing inspiration from the classic 99X series models and incorporating a Y2K-era aesthetic with visible technology.
Is the sizing different for men and women?
These are unisex trainers, meaning they are designed to fit both men and women. It's important to consult the New Balance sizing guide and measure your foot to find the correct UK size, as unisex sizing can sometimes differ from gender-specific sizing.
What is the CR device mentioned in the description?
The CR device is a component located at the heel of the trainer that provides additional support and stability, contributing to a more secure and comfortable fit during wear.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning technologies. Hand cleaning with a soft brush and mild soap is the preferred method.
Troubleshooting
Unsure about sizing
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot. Consider the unisex nature of the shoe; UK sizes are provided. It may be helpful to try them on in-store if possible.
Dirt or stains on the upper
Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution. For specific materials like suede, use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
Reduced cushioning or support over time
The cushioning technology is designed for durability, but performance may naturally decrease with extensive wear. Ensure you are following care instructions to prolong the life of the materials and cushioning.
