FAQs
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 993 series is designed as a unisex trainer suitable for all adults.
Are these true to size?
Generally, the New Balance 993 fits true to size, but individual preference for roominess may vary.
How should I clean the black suede or mesh parts?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a specialized suede eraser for marks on the upper.
Can I use these for running?
While they provide support, the 993 is primarily a lifestyle trainer; they are better suited for walking than technical running.
Do these provide good arch support?
Yes, the series is well-regarded for providing firm, reliable arch support suitable for daily wear.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
New Balance is known for offering various widths; ensure you check specific listings if you require a wider fit than the standard offering.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Loosen the laces throughout the eyelets to allow for extra volume, or wear thinner socks during the initial break-in phase.
Insole slipping or moving
Remove the insole, ensure the interior of the shoe is free of debris, and re-insert firmly. If it continues to move, consider aftermarket replacement insoles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are lace-up sneakers, ensuring a proper fit is essential. We recommend trying these on in the afternoon when your feet are at their largest to account for natural swelling throughout the day. To keep your black 993s looking their best, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean the upper with a soft-bristled brush and a mild detergent. If the sneakers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the materials to stiffen or warp over time.
