FAQs

Are the New Balance 9060 suitable for running?

The 9060 is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, emphasizing comfort and style. While they offer good cushioning, they are not optimized for high-performance running activities.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by New Balance, typically based on UK shoe sizing. Measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. This model is unisex, so consult the specific sizing guide for men's and women's equivalents if needed.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The trainers feature suede and mesh, which are not inherently waterproof. While they can withstand light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended and may require immediate cleaning and drying.

What is the primary difference between the 9060 and older 99X models?

The 9060 takes inspiration from the 99X series but reinterprets it with a more pronounced Y2K aesthetic, featuring exaggerated proportions, a sculpted pod midsole, and expanded sway bars for a futuristic look and enhanced cushioning.

Is the black and grey colorway versatile?

Yes, the black and grey color scheme is highly versatile and pairs easily with a wide range of casual outfits, making it a practical choice for everyday wear.

How often should I clean my 9060 trainers?

Regular spot cleaning after wear is recommended to maintain their appearance. A more thorough cleaning, following the care instructions, should be done as needed based on usage and dirt accumulation.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted.

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, consult a suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Trainer feels too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing pattern to achieve a more personalized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size.

Cushioning feels stiff initially.

New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the cushioning to adapt to your foot.
