FAQs

Are the New Balance 9060 trainers true to size?

Generally, New Balance trainers tend to fit true to size. However, fit can vary slightly based on individual foot shape. We recommend checking specific sizing guides if available or trying them on if possible.

Can I use these trainers for running or intense workouts?

While the ABZORB cushioning offers excellent comfort, the New Balance 9060 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear trainer, inspired by heritage running shoes. For dedicated running or high-impact workouts, specialized performance running shoes are recommended.

How do I protect the suede material?

To protect the suede, it's recommended to apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear. Regular cleaning with a suede brush and using a suede eraser for minor marks will also help maintain its appearance.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the New Balance 9060, particularly with its suede upper, is not waterproof. Exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions should be limited, as water can damage suede. Consider a protective spray for light moisture resistance.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that offers superior cushioning and compression resistance. It's designed to absorb the force of impact, providing a comfortable and responsive feel underfoot.

What does 'low-profile' mean in the description?

A 'low-profile' trainer typically refers to shoes that have a thinner sole or sit closer to the ground, offering a more minimalist or sleek silhouette compared to bulkier designs. It suggests a closer connection to the ground and often a lighter feel.

Are these suitable for wider feet?

> Info needed: [Specific width options for this model. New Balance often offers various widths, but it's not specified for this particular variant.] Generally, New Balance offers a range of widths. We recommend checking the product specifications or trying them on to determine suitability for wider feet.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking sound while walking.

Check if the laces are too tight or rubbing. Sometimes, a light sprinkle of baby powder under the insole can reduce friction-related squeaks.

Uncomfortable fit or rubbing.

Ensure you have the correct size. The padded tongue and cuff should provide comfort, but a short break-in period might be needed. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to alleviate pressure points. Wearing appropriate socks can also help.

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals.

Reduced grip on the outsole.

Clean the durable rubber outsole thoroughly. Dirt, mud, or debris can accumulate in the textured grip patterns. Use a stiff brush and mild soap with water to restore traction.

Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning Suede: Gently brush off dry dirt with a soft suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing or excessive water.
  • Cleaning Outsole: Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt and maintain grip.
  • Drying: If wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage suede.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially before first wear.
