FAQs

Are the New Balance 993 trainers suitable for running?

While the 993 offers good support and comfort, they are primarily designed as lifestyle and casual trainers with a retro athletic aesthetic. For serious or performance running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.

How do I ensure the correct UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance or the retailer. The UK 8 specified in the title is a standard sizing reference, but trying them on or comparing with known New Balance sizing is advised for the best fit.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet conditions as water can stain and damage the suede material. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally and use a suede brush.

What is the main difference between this model and other 99x series shoes?

The 993 retains the classic silhouette of the 99x series while often incorporating updated cushioning and materials for enhanced comfort and performance, embodying a refined version of the established design.

Is the 'Red Suede' color easily maintained?

The vibrant red suede offers a striking look but may require more diligent care to prevent visible dirt and stains compared to darker or less sensitive materials. Regular brushing and prompt cleaning of spills are key.

Are these trainers genuinely made in the USA?

Yes, the 'Made in USA' designation signifies that these trainers are manufactured in New Balance's facilities in the United States, indicating a commitment to quality craftsmanship and authenticity.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and spot-test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Shoes feel slightly stiff initially

This is common with new suede and durable materials. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. The materials will naturally conform to your foot shape over time.

Discoloration from water

Suede can be sensitive to water. If exposed, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat. Brush the suede once dry to restore its texture. Consider using a suede protector spray for future prevention.

Care Instructions:

  • Material Cleaning: Wipe synthetic areas with a slightly damp cloth.
