FAQs
What does 'Miuk' stand for?
'Miuk' refers to 'Made in the UK', indicating the premium manufacturing origin of this sneaker line.
Are these suitable for running?
While they offer excellent cushioning for walking, the 991v2 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual wear sneaker, not for high-impact running.
How do I clean the suede and mesh parts?
Use a suede brush for dry dirt and a suede cleaner for stains. Wipe mesh and synthetic parts with a damp cloth. Always air dry.
What is ENCAP midsole cushioning?
ENCAP technology combines a soft foam core with a durable polyurethane rim to provide support and stability throughout the day.
What is ABZORB SBS heel cushioning?
ABZORB SBS is an advanced cushioning technology in the heel that offers additional stability and comfort by absorbing impact.
Can I wear these in wet weather?

What sizes are available?
These sneakers are available in a range of adult sizes. Please refer to the product listing for specific size availability.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking sound from shoes
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area.
Laces wearing out quickly
Ensure laces are tied comfortably and not excessively tight, which can cause premature wear. Consider replacing with high-quality replacement laces.
Uneven wear on the outsole
Check your gait and walking pattern. Consistent uneven wear might indicate the need for an insole adjustment or a professional shoe fitting assessment.
Discoloration of suede
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive moisture. Use a suede protector spray and clean promptly with appropriate suede care products.
