FAQs

Are the New Balance 991v2 suitable for running?

While the 991v2 features advanced cushioning like FuelCell, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers with enhanced comfort. For serious or performance-based running, New Balance offers specialized running shoe models.

How do I clean the pigskin suede and mesh upper?

Gently brush the suede with a soft brush. For dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and mild soap if necessary, then wipe clean with a dry cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes.

What does 'Made in England' signify for these trainers?

'Made in England' signifies that these trainers are manufactured in New Balance's UK factory, reflecting a commitment to premium craftsmanship and quality materials.

Is the sizing standard for these trainers?

The 991v2 generally follows standard New Balance sizing. It's recommended to consult the size guide and consider your usual fit for trainers.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, the 991v2 are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their materials and appearance.

What is the main difference between the 991 and the 991v2?

The 991v2 features a more streamlined silhouette and integrates full-length FuelCell cushioning, along with updated ABZORB SBS pods, offering enhanced comfort and a modern update to the classic 991 design.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or stained.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.

Laces feel worn or dirty.

Laces can be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water, then air-dried. Replacement laces are also readily available.

Sole feels slippery.

Ensure the rubber outsole is clean from any mud or debris. If wear is significant, consider that the outsole may be nearing the end of its lifespan.

Discomfort during initial wear.

New balance shoes, especially those with advanced cushioning, may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
