FAQs
Are the New Balance 9060 suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 features cushioning and support technologies like ABZORB and SBS, making them comfortable for general wear and light athletic activities. For dedicated, high-impact running, specific running shoe models might offer more specialized performance features.
How do I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
For pigskin suede, it's best to use a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Avoid using water excessively as it can damage the suede.
What does the translucent CR device on the heel do?
The translucent CR device is primarily an aesthetic element that nods to the heritage of the 99X series, contributing to the shoe's distinctive and modern look. It does not have a functional purpose beyond design.
How does the sizing of the 9060 compare to other New Balance models?
Sizing can vary slightly between New Balance models. It is recommended to consult the New Balance sizing chart and customer reviews for the 9060 specifically, as some users find they run true to size, while others may need to size up or down.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
While the trainers offer some protection, they are not fully waterproof. The mesh upper can allow moisture in, and the suede is susceptible to water damage. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
What is the main inspiration behind the 9060 design?
The New Balance 9060 draws inspiration from the brand's 99X series, particularly noted in elements like the translucent CR device and the tongue logo referencing the 991. The outsole pattern is inspired by the classic 860 design.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lacing system. Try different lacing techniques to find a secure yet comfortable fit. If the issue persists, consider the specific size and consult sizing guides.
Suede material looks worn or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions. Apply a suede protector spray to prevent future stains.
Reduced grip or slippery sole
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. If the shoes have been exposed to wet surfaces, dry them thoroughly. For heavily worn outsoles, consider replacement if the tread is significantly diminished.
Discomfort during wear
Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Ensure you have selected the correct size and width. Check for any internal seams or rough spots that may be causing irritation.
