FAQs

Are there other sizes available in the 996 series?
Yes, the 996 series is available in various UK sizes, including 7.5, 8, 9, and 9.5.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels slightly loose or tight
Adjust the lacing technique using the top eyelet to secure the heel, or consider thin insoles if extra space is needed.
Visible dirt on the exterior
Use a soft-bristled brush or a damp cloth to gently lift surface stains without saturating the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 996 trainers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since they are lifestyle trainers, avoid using them for heavy-duty sports that involve excessive moisture or mud. For cleaning, wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging them in water or using harsh detergents that could damage the fabric. Always store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading. Regularly check the laces and ensure the interior remains dry to extend the lifespan of the footbed.
