FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the necessary support or performance for intense running.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the New Balance official size chart, typically available on their website or product pages. Measure your foot length and compare it to the chart for the corresponding UK size.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede materials. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.
How do I protect the suede from getting dirty?
Apply a suede protector spray before wearing them for the first time and reapply periodically. This helps repel water and stains.
What is the main difference between the 9060 series and other New Balance models?
The 9060 series typically features a more contemporary, progressive design with enhanced cushioning and a bolder silhouette compared to some of New Balance's more classic or performance-focused lines.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the New Balance 9060 series is available in a variety of colorways. The specific model U9060ERA focuses on the 'Black Castlerock' and grey combination.
Troubleshooting
Tying laces is difficult.
Ensure laces are not frayed. Consider replacing them with a different type of lace, such as flat waxed laces, for easier handling.
Shoes feel too tight.
Try loosening the laces. If still uncomfortable, consider wearing thinner socks or exploring the possibility of a slight break-in period. If the tightness is significant, ensure you have the correct size.
Suede material looks scuffed.
Use a suede eraser to gently lift scuffs. For more persistent marks, apply a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions.
