The 'Vintage Sports' collection draws inspiration from the refined leisure of sports like tennis, featuring color palettes and design cues that evoke a classic, sophisticated athletic feel. The burnt orange colorway specifically references clay courts.

How do I clean my suede trainers?

Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions. Always air dry away from heat.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The 991v2 is designed as a lifestyle trainer, offering excellent comfort and support for daily wear. While they can handle light activity, they are not specialized for high-impact running.

The 991v2 typically features updated cushioning technology and design refinements compared to earlier 991 models, while maintaining the core aesthetic and quality.

How does the unisex sizing work?

The upper is constructed from a premium combination of suede, mesh, and synthetic materials.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off

Ensure laces are properly adjusted. If the issue persists, consider the fit based on your foot shape and compare with other New Balance models you own.

Discoloration on suede

Address stains promptly with a suede-specific cleaner and brush. Avoid exposure to excessive moisture or harsh chemicals.

Reduced cushioning over time

While designed for durability, cushioning may naturally lessen with extensive use. Ensure proper care to maintain material integrity.
