FAQs
Are these shoes unisex?

Can these be used for running?
While they provide excellent support, they are primarily categorized as lifestyle trainers rather than performance running shoes.
Do the shoes run true to size?
Yes, the 993 series generally adheres to standard sizing, though individual preference for toe room may vary.
How do I clean the black suede/mesh mix?
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner for suede or a damp cloth with mild soap, taking care not to saturate the materials.
Is the sole removable?
Yes, the inner liner is designed to be removable if you need to insert a custom orthotic device.
What is the primary material used?
The 993 typically features a high-quality combination of suede and breathable mesh for a balance of durability and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of stiffness in the sole
The 993 series requires a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations over the first few days to allow the foam to conform to your gait.
Accumulation of dust on black fabric
Use a soft lint roller or a specific suede/fabric brush to gently lift particles from the textured panels without damaging the fabric fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 993 trainers maintain their shape and support, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: Ensure you select the correct UK size. The 993 series is known for a consistent fit, but consider room for natural foot swelling throughout the day.
- Maintenance: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush or a dry cloth. Avoid machine washing, which can degrade the cushioning materials.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent premature fading of the black upper materials.
- Insoles: If you use custom orthotics, the factory insoles are generally removable to accommodate a personalized fit.
