FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 9060 is inspired by running heritage, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle and fashion shoe. It is not recommended for high-intensity athletic training.
How do I clean the mesh portion?
Use a soft brush with a mixture of water and a mild detergent to gently scrub the mesh. Avoid soaking the shoe completely.
Do the 9060s run true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard adult UK sizing, though the thick padding provides a snug, secure feel.
What is the purpose of the plastic heel counter?
The semi-translucent heel counter provides added structural support to the rear of the shoe and contributes to the futuristic aesthetic.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the structural integrity of the suede and the adhesive used in the midsole. Always clean by hand.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede panels
Use a specialized suede brush or eraser to gently lift debris without damaging the nap of the material.
Creasing on the midsole
Midsole creasing is common in EVA-based foams; avoid heat sources like radiators to prevent further material deformation.
Midsole feels stiff
The dual-cushioning system requires a short 'break-in' period; wear them for shorter durations for the first week to allow the foam to conform to your gait.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature suede overlays, you should avoid wearing them in heavy rain or muddy conditions to prevent permanent staining. For general cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust from the mesh and suede panels. If the midsoles become scuffed, a damp cloth with mild soap is usually sufficient. Store your 9060s in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading on the grey and blue fabrics. When fitting, the 9060 typically follows standard sizing, but the bulky build may feel slightly more snug around the midfoot compared to slimmer models.
