FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 9060 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running activities.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of breathable mesh and durable synthetic materials, providing both comfort and longevity.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight around the midfoot and heel.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the trainers can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain to prevent damage and discomfort.

What is the 'CR device' at the heel?

The CR device is a component designed to provide additional stability and support to the heel of the foot.

How does the Y2K aesthetic influence the design?

The design takes inspiration from the early 2000s tech aesthetic, featuring exaggerated proportions, visible design elements like sway bars, and a 'warped' interpretation of classic New Balance designs.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure. Hand wash gently as per the care instructions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. If they still feel tight, try wearing them with thinner socks or loosen the laces. Allow for a short break-in period as the materials adjust to your foot shape.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur due to friction between internal components or if moisture has entered the shoe. Ensure the insoles are properly seated. If the issue persists, try a sprinkle of talcum powder inside the shoe (avoiding direct contact with the foot).

Discoloration on white/grey areas

Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher stains, a specialized shoe cleaner for white materials may be used, following product instructions carefully. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The New Balance 9060 trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for a comfortable fit.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for general adult use and are compatible with most casual outfits. They are not intended for specific athletic performance requirements like professional running or basketball.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic upper with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush, then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  2. Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap solution to clean the midsole and outsole. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the materials.
  3. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials and shape.
  4. Laces: Remove laces for separate cleaning. Hand wash with mild soap and water, then air dry before re-lacing.
