FAQs

Are the New Balance 9060 trainers good for running?

The 9060s are primarily designed as lifestyle and casual wear trainers. While they offer good cushioning and support for walking and everyday activities, they are not optimized for dedicated running due to their design and weight.

How do I clean the suede material?

For suede, use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Avoid using water excessively.

What does 'Y2K aesthetic' mean for these trainers?

The Y2K aesthetic refers to the style popular around the year 2000, characterized by futuristic elements, visible technology, and often chunkier silhouettes. The 9060 incorporates these influences through its design details and proportions.

Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?

The unisex design generally offers a standard fit. If you have wider feet, it is advisable to try them on in person or check specific sizing guides for width options, as the 9060 model tends to have a more substantial build.

What is the main difference between the 9060 and classic 99X models?

The 9060 reinterprets classic 99X elements with exaggerated proportions, a more pronounced midsole, and a distinct Y2K-inspired design, whereas classic 99X models typically have a more traditional and understated aesthetic.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the suede and mesh materials.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound during walking

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces. If it persists, a common fix is to apply talcum powder under the insole, though this may void some warranties.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow for a break-in period of a few wears. If discomfort persists, ensure you have the correct size and consider using different socks.

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions.
