FAQs
Where are the New Balance Miuk 991V2 sneakers made?
These sneakers are proudly Made in the UK at the brand's Flimby factory.
What are the primary cushioning technologies used?

What materials are used in the upper construction?

How should I clean the suede parts of the sneaker?

Are these sneakers suitable for running?
While they offer excellent comfort and support for walking, they are primarily designed for casual wear and not for high-impact athletic activities like running.
What is the fit like?
The fit is generally considered true to size for a casual sneaker, but due to the premium materials and construction, trying them on or consulting a size chart is recommended for the best fit.
Can these sneakers be worn in wet weather?
The materials offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their appearance and material integrity.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialist suede cleaner and follow instructions carefully.
Laces are difficult to tie or come undone
Ensure laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. Consider using a double knot for added security if they frequently come undone.
Unusual noise (squeaking) when walking
This can sometimes occur due to newness or friction within the shoe. Try wearing them for a few more sessions to break them in. If the noise persists, check for any loose components or debris inside the shoe.
Cushioning feels too firm initially
The ENCAP and ABZORB SBS cushioning may require a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your foot.
