New Balance 9060 Trainers - White - Size 8.5

The New Balance 9060 are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers, emphasizing comfort and unique style for everyday wear. While they offer excellent cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact sports, performance running, or intensive athletic activities.

Generally, the New Balance 9060 is considered to fit true to size for most individuals. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. However, foot shapes can vary, so always consider trying them on if possible or consulting a sizing guide.

Check the insoles for signs of wear and compression. Replacing the original insoles with fresh, compatible ones can significantly restore comfort and support. Also, ensure laces are properly tied to prevent excessive foot movement inside the shoe.

A squeaking sound can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's sole. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole. This can reduce friction.
