FAQs
Are the New Balance 9060 trainers suitable for running?
The 9060 trainers feature cushioning technologies like ABZORB and SBS, making them comfortable for walking and daily wear. However, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers and not specialized for high-impact running activities.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance or measure your foot length from heel to toe and compare it with the UK sizing conversion. The product information indicates this specific pair is UK 12.5.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, cushioning, and adhesives. Hand-wash using a damp cloth and mild soap as per the care instructions.
What is the warranty period for New Balance trainers?
Warranty details can vary. Typically, New Balance offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. It is best to check the specific warranty policy provided at the time of purchase or on the official New Balance website.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
The New Balance 9060 series is available in multiple colorways and designs. This guide focuses on the Black/Green variant (MPN: U90602P8).
How do the ABZORB and SBS cushioning differ?
ABZORB cushioning absorbs impact, providing a responsive feel. SBS (Shop-to-Store) cushioning offers enhanced stability and comfort, particularly in the heel area, working together for overall foot support.
Troubleshooting
Uneven fit or discomfort
Ensure laces are tied evenly and not too tight. Consider wearing thicker socks for a snugger fit or trying a different size if the issue persists, as foot shape can vary.
Squeaking noise from the sole
This can sometimes occur due to moisture trapped between layers. Try ensuring the shoes are completely dry and airing them out. A light dusting of talcum powder inside the shoe may help if the squeak is internal.
Color transfer from shoe to socks
Some dyes, especially in darker colors, may transfer slightly when new or when wet. This should diminish with wear. It's advisable to wear darker socks initially.
