FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
New Balance typically runs true to size for most users, but it's always recommended to refer to a size guide if available or try them on to ensure the best fit. This particular model is UK size 10.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the rubber sole offers traction, the suede and mesh upper is not inherently waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials. A water-repellent spray can offer some protection against light moisture.
What does 'Made in UK' signify?
'Made in UK' indicates that these sneakers are crafted in New Balance's factory in the United Kingdom, signifying a commitment to premium materials, quality craftsmanship, and often more traditional manufacturing techniques.
How do I clean the rubber sole?
The rubber sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap or a specialized sole cleaner. A soft brush can help scrub away dirt from grooves and textures.
Are these suitable for athletic activities?
The New Balance 991v2 is designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker, emphasizing style and comfort for everyday use. While supportive, they are not specifically engineered for high-performance athletic activities like running or intense sports.
How often should I clean them?
For optimal appearance, especially with a white colourway, it's best to gently brush off dirt after each wear. A more thorough cleaning can be done every few weeks or as needed, depending on how frequently they are worn and the conditions.
Troubleshooting
My white sneakers are getting dirty quickly.
Regularly brush off loose dirt with a soft brush after each wear. For more stubborn marks, use a sneaker cleaner specifically designed for white footwear and follow the product's instructions carefully. Consider applying a stain repellent spray.
The suede looks dull or matted.
Use a suede brush or eraser to gently lift the nap and remove surface marks. Brush in one consistent direction to restore its original texture. Avoid excessive rubbing which can damage the suede.
My feet feel uncomfortable after wearing them for a long time.
Ensure the lacing is not too tight or too loose. The chunky sole provides comfort, but a break-in period might be needed. Consider trying different socks or custom insoles if discomfort persists. Ensure you have the correct size.
The shoe makes a squeaking sound when I walk.
Often, squeaking comes from the insole rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, cleaning the area, and sprinkling a small amount of talcum powder underneath. If the squeak persists, it might be the sole material, which usually resolves with more wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The New Balance 991v2 requires minimal setup. Simply lace them up to your preferred tightness. Ensure a snug fit that allows for natural foot movement without excessive pressure. Experiment with different lacing patterns if you experience discomfort or pressure points.
Compatibility: These sneakers are highly versatile and complement a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They pair well with jeans, chinos, shorts, and even some relaxed trousers. Consider the white colourway as a neutral base that can elevate various outfits.
Care:
- Regular Cleaning: For the suede and mesh upper, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust after each wear.
- Spot Cleaning: For stains on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and brush, working in one direction to maintain the nap. For mesh, a mild soap solution with a soft cloth can be used. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
- White Maintenance: The crisp white colour requires more frequent attention. Use a sneaker cleaner designed for white shoes to keep them looking fresh. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Always air dry your sneakers away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and mesh to provide an extra layer of protection against the elements.
