FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?
While the New Balance 9060 offers good cushioning and support, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers with versatility for shorter runs or active wear. For dedicated long-distance running, specialized running shoes may offer more advanced features.
How do I clean the suede and cream sections?
Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt from the suede. For the cream sections and general cleaning, use a soft cloth slightly dampened with water and a mild soap. Blot the area and let it air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals.
What is the primary inspiration for the 'Quartz Grey Team Cream Sea Salt' colorway?
The colorway is inspired by the natural beauty of quartz grey, cream tones, and sea salt, aiming to bring an organic and serene aesthetic to the sneaker design.
Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?
The trainers offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. The non-slip treads will provide better grip on wet surfaces, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water is not recommended and may affect the materials.
What does the '9060' in the product name signify?
The 9060 represents a new chapter in New Balance's performance-inspired lifestyle offerings, combining a heritage aesthetic with modern design and technology.
How do I find the correct UK size?
The product specifies UK sizing. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to New Balance's official size chart, which is usually available on their website, to ensure the best fit for UK 12.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise during wear
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more sessions to break them in. If the noise persists, check if the insole is properly seated or try a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.
Traction feels reduced
Ensure the non-slip treads are clean and free from debris, mud, or excessive dust. Wipe them down with a damp cloth. If the shoe material itself is worn down, traction may be permanently reduced.
Discomfort around the ankle
The soft heel material is designed for comfort, but some users may need a break-in period. Ensure the laces are tied correctly, not too tight or too loose. If discomfort persists, consider using thicker socks or consulting a shoe specialist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
These trainers require no specific setup; they are ready to wear out of the box. Their compatibility is with typical streetwear and activewear. To care for your New Balance 9060 trainers, it is recommended to spot clean with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used gently on the suede or leather components.
