The New Balance 991v2 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual shoe, offering superior comfort and support for daily wear, city walks, and light travel. While they provide excellent cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-intensity or performance running.
For suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner product, following its instructions carefully. Avoid using water directly on suede.
ENCAP is a core New Balance midsole technology that combines a soft EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) foam core with a durable polyurethane rim. This construction provides a blend of soft cushioning and stable support for all-day comfort and durability.
'Made in the UK' means these trainers are crafted at New Balance's Flimby factory in the United Kingdom. This designation highlights premium craftsmanship, meticulous attention to detail, and often involves high-quality materials and production standards.
New Balance 991v2 models are generally considered to fit true to size. However, foot shape can vary, so if you are between sizes, it's often recommended to try them on or consult a size chart. This specific model is a UK 7.
While the trainers offer durability, the pig suede upper is not naturally waterproof and can be susceptible to water damage and staining. It is recommended to apply a protective suede spray to enhance water resistance and avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their appearance.
ABZORB SBS is an advanced cushioning compound used by New Balance, specifically in the heel area for the 991v2. It's a non-compressible, gel-like material designed to provide superior shock absorption and stability, contributing to overall comfort and reducing impact on your feet.
Gently brush the affected suede areas with a dedicated suede brush. This helps to lift the nap and restore its original texture and appearance. For deeper cleaning, use a suede eraser or cleaner.
Ensure you have the correct size. New trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to conform to your feet. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different lacing technique or consulting a footwear specialist.
Allow your trainers to air out thoroughly after each wear. Remove insoles occasionally to air them separately. You can also use shoe deodorizers, cedar shoe trees, or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors.
Clean the rubber sole with a mild soap and water solution using a brush or sponge. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser can be effective. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the rubber.
Your New Balance 991v2 trainers require no special setup. Simply unbox them and they are ready to wear. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and fit.
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your New Balance 991v2:
