FAQs
What materials are the New Balance 9060 Trainers made from?
These trainers feature a premium suede and mesh construction for the upper, an EVA midsole, an ABZORB sole unit for cushioning, and a durable rubber outsole for traction.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While rooted in New Balance's running heritage, the 9060 is designed more as a lifestyle or fashion trainer. Its chunky design and focus on comfort make it excellent for daily wear and light activity, but it's not specifically engineered for high-performance running.
How should I clean my New Balance 9060 Trainers?
For the suede, use a soft brush and a dedicated suede cleaner. The mesh can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air dry the trainers completely, away from direct heat.
Are the New Balance 9060 Trainers unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 9060 series, including this Grey UK 4 model, is designed to be a unisex trainer, suitable for all adults.
What is the ABZORB sole unit?
ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary blend of foam cushioning and compression set, providing optimal impact absorption and energy return, enhancing overall comfort.
What makes the 9060's design unique?
The 9060 blends design elements from classic New Balance 990 and 860 running silhouettes, creating a conceptual, futuristic, and chunky aesthetic that stands out as an 'elevated finish' to footwear.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or discolored
Use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, apply a suede cleaner according to product instructions, then brush gently to restore nap. Consider a suede protector for future prevention.
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Adjust the lace-up closure for a customized fit. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for your usual comfort level. If issues persist, verify you have the correct size.
Sole traction feels reduced
Inspect the rubber outsole for any embedded debris or wear. Clean the treads with a small brush or damp cloth to remove dirt that might be affecting grip. If the outsole is significantly worn, performance may be affected.
Unpleasant odor develops
Allow trainers to air out after each use, especially if they become damp. Consider using shoe deodorizers or placing baking soda in the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Remove insoles occasionally for separate airing and cleaning.
