Hi. I'm just wondering am i too old for new balance trainers. I have veja but they absolutely hurt my feet. I saw the new balance 9060 but thinking am I too old. I'm in my late 40's. Need the wide fit and comfort. Thanks.

My dad in his 70s wears them. I don't think they're a young brand in anyone's eyes.

They're a middle age brand. I've unfortunately ended up with two pairs in different styles and they are no where near as good as Nike / running trainers sadly. The 9060's I could literally take a blow torch to as they're as solid as a brick. Trying to wear wear mine out so I can get rid of them.

Thanks this is great to know. Was just conscious that they may be a young person thing.

That’s so weird as absolutely love my 9060s, always wear them to the airport/travel as they are so comfortable for me. I’m eyeing at least two more pairs for spring/summer.

Just shows how we’re all different!

I'm 66 and have 4 pairs
