New Balance 990v4 Trainers - Orange - Size 7 UK

While the ABZORB midsole offers excellent cushioning, the 990v4 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and everyday trainer rather than a performance running shoe. For dedicated running, a specialized New Balance running shoe is recommended.

The translucent heel clip can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch or cloud the surface.

'Made in USA' signifies that at least 70% of the shoe's value is produced domestically, reflecting New Balance's commitment to quality manufacturing in the United States.

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or placing them in their original box can help maintain their shape.

While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the suede and mesh from damage and prolonged dampness.

Each version of the 990 line (v1, v2, v3, v4, v5, v6) features updated technology, design elements, and cushioning systems while maintaining the core ethos of comfort and quality. The v4 is known for its specific blend of ENCAP and ABZORB cushioning and its distinct aesthetic.

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner.

Wear with thinner socks or allow the shoes to break in naturally. Ensure the laces are not over-tightened.

This is uncommon but can occur if the sole is wet and in contact with light-colored materials. Ensure soles are dry before wearing with sensitive fabrics.

Replace laces with a similar style and length. Many shoe care retailers offer replacement laces.
