FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear, emphasizing comfort and style. While they offer good cushioning for walking, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact running activities and may lack the specialized support required.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, typically available on the product page or the manufacturer's website. Measure your foot length and compare it to the provided UK, US, or EU sizing. It's also helpful to read customer reviews regarding fit.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the trainers can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. For heavy rain, it's advisable to avoid wearing them. Applying a water-repellent spray designed for footwear can offer some protection against light splashes and stains.
What is the main difference between the 9060 series and other New Balance trainers?
The 9060 series is characterized by its modern, exaggerated design elements, drawing inspiration from classic models while incorporating contemporary chunky aesthetics and advanced cushioning technologies. They often feature a bolder visual profile compared to more traditional New Balance silhouettes.
How should I clean the Black Cement and Dry Lime color combination?
Use a soft brush or cloth with a small amount of mild soap and water to gently clean the surfaces. For suede or nubuck parts, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush. Always allow the shoes to air dry completely away from heat.
Is the 'Dry Lime' color very bright?
The 'Dry Lime' is a vibrant accent color that contrasts with the primary 'Black Cement'. It is designed to be noticeable and add a pop of color, but its intensity can appear differently depending on lighting conditions.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Try wearing thinner socks. Loosen the laces and re-tie them more loosely. Break-in period may be required for new shoes.
Color transfer onto socks
This can sometimes occur with new, dark-colored footwear. It's recommended to wear darker socks initially. Washing the inside of the shoe gently with a damp cloth might help reduce excess dye.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
New shoes may have a smoother outsole. With use, the sole will naturally scuff and gain traction. For immediate improved grip, consider a specialized sole grip spray or rubber sole inserts.
