FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 993 series offers excellent support, they are primarily designed as performance-lifestyle trainers suitable for walking and everyday wear.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if needed.
How do I choose the correct size?
The New Balance 993 generally fits true to size, but we recommend measuring your foot length and comparing it against the official New Balance size chart.
Are these shoes waterproof?
They are not specifically treated to be waterproof, so it is best to avoid heavy rain to maintain the integrity of the materials.
What is the best way to clean the black suede sections?
Use a specialized suede brush or a soft eraser to gently lift dirt without damaging the texture.
Does this model come in wide widths?
New Balance offers various width options across the 993 range, though stock availability may vary per retailer.
Troubleshooting
Feeling too tight or stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors over a week to allow the materials to soften and adapt to your foot shape.
Surface dirt accumulation
Use a dry, soft brush after every use to prevent debris from setting into the fabric.
Odour buildup from regular wear
Remove the insoles to air out the shoes overnight and use specialized foot powder or deodorizing sprays if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 993 trainers, avoid machine washing or drying. For routine cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust and dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and wipe gently with a cloth. If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the materials. Ensure you select your proper UK size, as the 993 fit is generally consistent with standard adult sizing charts.
