FAQs
Are the New Balance 9060 trainers suitable for running?
While the 9060 features cushioning, it's primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for comfort and style in daily wear, rather than for high-impact athletic activities like serious running.
How do I find the right size?
It is recommended to consult the official New Balance size guide, which provides measurements for foot length in relation to UK, US, and EU sizing. Measuring your foot and comparing it to the chart is the most accurate method. Reading reviews for this specific model may also offer insights into its fit.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The 'Angora Sea Salt' colorway is best kept dry. While they offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions may lead to discoloration or damage to the materials.
What is the main difference between the 9060 series and other New Balance trainers?
The 9060 series is characterized by its exaggerated, bold design, featuring a chunky sole and distinctive overlays. It represents a more contemporary and fashion-forward approach compared to some of New Balance's heritage or performance-focused models.
What does 'Angora Sea Salt' refer to?
'Angora Sea Salt' describes the colorway of the trainers. 'Angora' often implies a soft, wool-like texture or a light, muted color, while 'Sea Salt' suggests a creamy, off-white tone, combined here with beige for a neutral and versatile aesthetic.
Are there other color options available for the 9060 series?
Yes, the New Balance 9060 series is typically released in a variety of colorways. While this guide focuses on the 'Angora Sea Salt' variant, other options are usually available from New Balance and its retailers.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and compare with your foot measurements. Consider trying them on in-store or checking customer reviews for fit advice, as some users find this model runs slightly large or small.
Discoloration on beige/white upper
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, consult a professional shoe cleaner or use a dedicated sneaker cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Laces fraying or breaking
Replace laces with a similar style and length from a reputable shoe accessory provider. You can often find direct replacements in similar colors.
Reduced cushioning over time
While the cushioning is designed for durability, natural wear can occur. Ensure you are not over-exerting the shoes beyond their intended use. For significantly degraded cushioning, replacement may be necessary.
