FAQs

How do I best clean my white New Balance 991v2?

For general cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and water. Gently scrub and wipe clean. For tougher marks, a dedicated sneaker cleaner is recommended. Always air dry away from direct heat.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 991v2 is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort and style for everyday use and light activities like walking. While they offer good support, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance running.

What is the best way to store my New Balance 991v2?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a breathable shoe bag, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.

How do I ensure I have the correct size?

This specific model is a UK size 12. It's best to try them on to ensure a comfortable fit. Your toes should have a small amount of space at the end, and the shoe should feel snug without being tight around the sides and top of your foot.

Can I machine wash these sneakers?

No, it is strongly advised not to machine wash your New Balance 991v2. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe, leading to premature wear and potential warranty voidance.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

The New Balance 991v2 is not inherently water-resistant. Exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions should be limited, especially for the white colorway. Applying a protective spray can offer some repellency.

Troubleshooting

White material appears dirty quickly

Establish a routine of wiping down your shoes with a damp cloth after each wear, especially if worn outdoors. For tougher stains, use a specialized white sneaker cleaner immediately.

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Ensure you are wearing the correct size (UK 12 for this model). Try adjusting lacing techniques; for a tighter fit, use all eyelets and pull laces firmly; for a looser feel, skip the top eyelets. Consider trying different thickness socks.

Foot odor develops

Remove insoles periodically to air them out. Use a shoe deodorizer spray or cedar shoe trees. Ensure shoes are completely dry before wearing again. Always wear clean, breathable socks.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then reinserting the insole. If the issue persists, check if the outsole is separating.

Loss of support or cushioning over time

While New Balance shoes are durable, cushioning can compress. Consider replacing the insoles with fresh, supportive aftermarket insoles specifically designed for comfort and arch support. This can refresh the feel of the shoe.

Care Instructions

Maintaining the pristine white appearance of your New Balance 991v2 is crucial for longevity and style. Follow these steps for best results:

  1. Regular Cleaning: Gently wipe down surfaces with a soft, damp cloth immediately after any minor marks appear.
  2. Spot Treatment: For stubborn stains, use a dedicated sneaker cleaner or a mild soap solution. Apply to a soft brush or cloth, gently scrub the affected area, and then wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  3. Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials.
  4. Lace Care: Remove laces and hand wash them separately with mild soap if they become soiled.
  5. Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  6. Avoid Machine Washing: Never machine wash your New Balance 991v2 sneakers as this can damage the materials and construction.
