FAQs

What does 'Y2K inspired design' mean for the 9060 trainers?

The Y2K inspired design refers to the aesthetic trends popular around the year 2000. For the 9060, this translates into a chunky silhouette, wavy lines, scaled proportions, and a bold, almost futuristic look that reinterprets classic New Balance elements from the 99x and 860 series.

Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?

The New Balance 9060 trainers are primarily designed as a lifestyle shoe for everyday casual wear. While they offer excellent comfort and stability, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running or intense sports. For athletic activities, New Balance offers specialized performance footwear.

How do ABZORB and SBS cushioning work?

ABZORB cushioning is a blend of foam cushioning and compression set, providing optimal shock absorption and energy return. SBS cushioning is a non-cellular, foam-free cushioning system for superior stability and comfort. Together, they create a highly comfortable and supportive experience in the midsole.

What is the 'CR device' at the heel?

The transparent CR device at the heel is a stability feature. It helps to support and secure the heel, contributing to overall foot stability during movement, while also adding a distinctive design element to the shoe.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The New Balance 9060 trainers are made from synthetic and mesh materials with leather overlays. While they can withstand light moisture, they are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions may cause water to penetrate, potentially affecting comfort and material integrity. It's best to avoid heavy wet weather.

How do I ensure I get the correct size?

The New Balance 9060 generally runs true to size with a regular fit. We recommend referring to New Balance's official sizing chart and considering your usual trainer size. If you are between sizes, or prefer a looser fit, you might consider going up half a size.

Troubleshooting

My trainers feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the laces are not tied too tightly. The New Balance 9060 has a regular fit, but it may take a few wears for the materials to conform to your foot. If discomfort persists, check if the size is correct or consider trying different lacing techniques.

The white material is getting dirty quickly.

As the trainers are predominantly white, they are prone to showing dirt. Regularly wipe them down with a damp cloth after each wear. For more stubborn marks, use a small amount of mild soap with water and a soft brush, then gently wipe clean. Consider using a protective spray designed for synthetic and leather materials.

The cushioning doesn't feel as responsive as it used to.

Cushioning can naturally compress over time with extensive wear. Ensure you are following proper care instructions. If the trainers are old and heavily used, the cushioning may have reached its lifespan. While advanced, ABZORB and SBS cushioning still have a finite life.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the aesthetic and longevity of your trainers:

  • Cleaning: The primary material is synthetic, with leather overlays. For general cleaning, wipe the trainers with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean.
  • Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent discoloration and material degradation.
  • Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the shoe's structure and materials.
