FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 'Blue Haze' are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort and support, they are not engineered for high-impact running activities, which may require specialized athletic footwear.
How do I clean the 'Blue Haze' colorway?
For the 'Blue Haze' colorway, use a soft brush or damp cloth to gently clean the upper. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, especially on leather components. Allow to air dry.
What is the main benefit of the micro-curved toe design?
The micro-curved toe design enhances flexibility in the forefoot area, allowing for a more natural foot movement and providing a degree of protection.
Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?
While the rubber sole provides some grip, these trainers are not waterproof. Extended exposure to heavy rain may lead to wetness and potential damage to the materials.
What does the 'Blue Haze' color signify?
The 'Blue Haze' colorway is inspired by the blue sky, intended to evoke a sense of calmness and relaxation in its aesthetic.
What materials are used in the midsole?
The midsole is constructed from a combination of EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) and rubber, providing both cushioning for comfort and durability for impact reduction.
How does the sizing typically run?
These trainers generally follow standard New Balance sizing. It is recommended to refer to the brand's sizing chart for the most accurate fit, as individual foot shapes can vary.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or poor fit
Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. If discomfort persists, consider if the shoe's shape suits your foot type.
Squeaking noise
This can sometimes occur due to friction. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or to the tongue area.
Material scuffing or marking
For leather, use a leather cleaner or conditioner. For fabric, follow the cleaning instructions. Minor scuffs on leather can sometimes be buffed out.
