FAQs

Are the New Balance 990v4 suitable for wide feet?

The 990v4 is generally known for its accommodating fit. While specific widths may vary by release, the overall design offers good room for many foot types. It is recommended to check for specific width options if available.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the New Balance size chart or try on a pair in-store if possible. Generally, measure your foot length and compare it to the chart. The UK 7 is listed for this specific product.

Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?

While the trainers are made with durable materials, they are not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain to protect the suede and mesh components and to prevent discomfort.

What is the main difference between the 990v4 and other 990 versions?

Each version of the 990 series introduces updates in cushioning, materials, and design. The v4, introduced in 2016, refined the model with updated aesthetics and specific comfort enhancements characteristic of that era's innovation.

How often should I clean my 990v4 trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after heavy use or exposure to dirt. Regular light brushing of the suede can help maintain their appearance between deeper cleans.

Is the 'Made in USA' tag significant?

Yes, 'Made in USA' signifies New Balance's commitment to manufacturing quality and craftsmanship within the United States, often associated with premium materials and construction standards.

What type of socks are best with these trainers?

Athletic or performance socks made from moisture-wicking materials like wool or synthetic blends are recommended for comfort and to help manage sweat.

Troubleshooting

Slight stiffness upon first wear

This is normal for premium suede and mesh. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape.

Color transfer from suede

New suede can sometimes transfer color, especially when wet. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or with light-colored socks until they have been conditioned or are thoroughly dry.

Uneven wear on the outsole

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. Uneven wear can sometimes indicate an improper fit or a specific gait pattern. Consult a professional if concerned.

Care:
