FAQs

Do these trainers fit true to size?

Yes, the New Balance 9060 trainers are designed to fit true to size according to standard UK men's sizing.

How should I clean the suede parts?

Gently brush the suede with a soft brush. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's specific instructions. Avoid using water excessively on suede.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, it is strongly advised not to machine wash these trainers. This can damage the suede, mesh, and midsole cushioning. Clean them manually with a damp cloth.

What is the main benefit of the midsole cushioning?

The dual-density midsole, featuring Abzorb and SBS cushioning, provides excellent shock absorption and support, contributing to enhanced comfort during prolonged wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are primarily designed for everyday comfort and urban style. While they offer good cushioning and support for light activities like walking or casual jogs, they are not specialized running shoes.

What does the 'CR' in the translucent heel device stand for?

CR typically refers to 'Collision Resistance', indicating that the heel device is designed to provide added stability and impact protection for the heel.

Troubleshooting

Slight tightness or discomfort on first wear

This is common with new footwear. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot shape. Adjust the lacing for a more comfortable fit.

Suede appears dull or stained

Use a soft brush to gently lift the nap of the suede. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

The midsole cushioning is designed for longevity, but prolonged heavy use can lessen its responsiveness. Ensure you are cleaning the shoes regularly and avoiding excessive heat, which can degrade materials.

Traction seems poor on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides good grip, performance on extremely wet or slick surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is free of debris, as this can also impact traction.
