FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic training?

While the 993 series has roots in performance, the "Red Suede" variant is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear due to its premium suede materials. For rigorous athletic training, dedicated New Balance performance trainers are recommended.

How do I clean mud or dirt from the suede?

Allow mud to dry completely, then gently brush it off with a suede brush. For tougher dirt, use a suede eraser. Avoid using water, as it can stain or damage the suede.

What is the advantage of Made in USA construction?

Made in USA products from New Balance signify a commitment to high-quality materials, meticulous craftsmanship, and adherence to manufacturing standards that have been honed over decades.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet weather as water can cause staining and damage to the material. Consider using a suede protectant spray, but understand it will not make the shoes fully waterproof.

What does the '993' series signify?

The 993 is part of New Balance's premium 99x line, known for its blend of comfort, stability, and classic design, often incorporating advanced cushioning technology for its time.

Is the sizing true to fit?

Generally, New Balance trainers are known for consistent sizing. However, it's always advisable to consult the brand's sizing chart and consider trying them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between models and individuals.

What other colors are available in the 993 series?

The 993 series has been released in various colorways over the years, with popular options including grey, navy, and black, often in suede and mesh combinations.

Troubleshooting

Suede color transfer to socks

This can sometimes occur with new suede. Wear darker socks initially or consider using a suede protectant spray to minimize color bleeding. Ensure the suede is completely dry before wearing.

Stiff materials causing discomfort

New shoes, especially those with suede, may require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the lacing is adjusted for a comfortable fit.

Soles appear dirty or scuffed

Use a damp cloth and mild soap to gently clean the rubber sole. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser or specialized sole cleaner can be used carefully.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush specifically designed for suede to remove dry dirt and dust. For stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can cause discoloration or damage.
  2. Cleaning Synthetic Materials: Wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  3. Lining: If the interior needs cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a cloth, ensuring not to oversaturate the material. Allow to air dry completely.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain color and material integrity. Using shoe trees can help retain the shape.
