FAQs
What inspired the design of the 9060?
The New Balance 9060 trainers are inspired by the futuristic Y2K tech aesthetic, reimagining familiar elements from the classic 99X series with modern flair and exaggerated proportions.
What are the main cushioning technologies used?
The 9060 features an ABZORB midsole for impact absorption and dual-density cushioning, utilizing technologies like ABZORB and SBS for enhanced comfort and support.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the 9060 offers excellent cushioning for daily wear and comfort, they are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual athletic use, not high-impact running.
How do I clean the suede and mesh parts of the shoe?
Use a soft brush for suede and a damp cloth with mild soap for mesh. Avoid machine washing. For stubborn stains on suede, a specialized suede eraser can be used.
What is the significance of the diamond outsole pattern?
The diamond outsole pattern on the 9060 is a nod to the iconic 860 design, providing both a unique visual element and reliable grip.
Do the 9060 trainers fit true to size?
Generally, the New Balance 9060 trainers are designed to fit true to size. However, personal preference for fit can vary, and some users may prefer to size up or down slightly.
What makes the sway bars in the 9060 different?
The expanded sway bars, derived from the 990 model, are integrated across the upper of the 9060 to provide enhanced stability and dynamic motion.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct UK size. Consider using thinner socks or breaking them in gradually with short periods of wear.
Squeaking sound during walking
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more days. If persistent, check that the laces are not tied too tightly or that no debris is caught in the outsole.
Visible creasing on the midsole
Minor creasing on the sculpted pod midsole is a normal characteristic of the design and cushioning technology. It does not typically affect performance.
Discoloration of materials
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and harsh chemicals. Clean only with mild soap and water as per care instructions.
