FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 9060 trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer good cushioning, they are not optimized for high-impact athletic activities like serious running.
What are the main cushioning technologies used?
The 9060 model features ABZORB and SBS cushioning technologies, designed to provide excellent shock absorption and comfort for everyday wear.
How do I clean the pink and purple leather/suede parts?
For general cleaning, use a soft brush or damp cloth with mild soap and water. For suede, use a dedicated suede cleaner and brush. Always air dry away from heat.
What inspired the design of the 9060?
The design is a new expression of the classic 99X series, reinterpreting familiar elements with a warped, futuristic sensibility inspired by the visible tech aesthetic of the Y2K era.
Is this a unisex model for kids?
Yes, this model is listed as unisex and is specifically sized for kids.
What is the primary material used for the upper?
The upper primarily uses leather, with suede accents contributing to the design and texture. Specific material composition may vary slightly.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions to maintain their appearance and longevity.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or loose
Adjust the laces using the lacing system for a personalized fit. Ensure the correct size was selected based on foot measurement.
Discoloration or stains on the upper
Gently clean the affected area with a damp cloth and mild soap. For suede, use a specialized suede cleaner. Test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
Squeaking noise during walking
This can sometimes occur due to new materials or moisture. Try wearing them in different conditions or check if any part of the sole is rubbing against itself. Ensure the insoles are properly seated.
