FAQs

Are these trainers truly unisex?

Yes, the design and sizing are intended to be suitable for both men and women.

How should I clean the orange mesh parts?

For the mesh areas, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid soaking the material or using harsh cleaning agents.

What does 'Made in UK' signify?

'Made in UK' signifies that the product is manufactured in New Balance's facilities in the United Kingdom, often associated with premium materials and craftsmanship.

Can I wear these for running?

While comfortable for walking, the 991v2 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer, not for high-impact athletic activities like running.

How do I protect the suede from water damage?

You can apply a waterproofing spray specifically designed for suede. Ensure it is compatible with suede and follow the product's application instructions.

What is the inspiration behind the 'Vibrant Chroma' colorway?

The colorway is inspired by the elemental contrast of fire and water, featuring a blend of red-tinged orange and pure orange hues.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner.

Color transfer onto socks or lighter clothing

This can sometimes occur with brightly dyed materials. Ensure the shoes are dry and consider using a color-protecting spray specifically for footwear. A first wash of socks separately might help.

General wear and tear on the sole

Regular cleaning of the sole with a damp cloth can prevent debris buildup. For significant wear, consult a professional shoe repair service.
