FAQs
How do I clean the suede on my 992 trainers?
Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner sparingly, following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 992 features ABZORB cushioning for comfort and impact absorption, making them excellent for walking and everyday wear. However, they are not specifically designed as performance running shoes.
What does 'Made in USA' signify?
'Made in USA' indicates that at least 70% of the shoe's value is manufactured and assembled in the United States, reflecting a commitment to domestic production and quality standards.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, which typically provides conversions between international sizing systems (US, UK, EU) and measurements in centimeters or inches for accurate fitting.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is strongly advised not to machine wash suede and mesh trainers, as this can damage the materials, adhesives, and cushioning. Hand cleaning is the recommended method.
What is the difference between the color variations?
The color variations refer to the specific combinations of hues used in the upper, sole, and accents. The 'Blue/Green' variant mentioned features deep slate, green apple, and corn accents, while other variations may use different secondary colors like purple.
How long should the ABZORB cushioning last?
The durability of ABZORB cushioning depends on usage. For average daily wear, it should provide significant comfort for an extended period, typically several years, before noticeable degradation.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove superficial dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner.
Mesh feels stiff or less breathable
Ensure the mesh is clean and free from debris. A gentle wipe-down with a damp cloth can help restore its texture.
Sole shows signs of wear
Regular cleaning of the outsole can prolong its life. For significant wear, consider professional sole repair if available.
Discomfort after prolonged wear
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Break-in periods can vary; continue to wear them for shorter durations initially if discomfort persists.
