The New Balance 997 Black Grey trainers are designed for adults seeking a versatile, low-top shoe that bridges the gap between classic aesthetic and modern performance. These trainers offer exceptional comfort through advanced midsole cushioning technology, making them an excellent choice for daily wear; however, users should note that the leather and nubuck construction requires specific care to maintain the material's integrity over time.

No, while the 997 series offers great comfort and cushioning, it is designed primarily as a lifestyle trainer for casual, everyday use rather than high-performance distance running.
Use a damp, soft cloth to wipe the leather. Avoid harsh chemicals and always test a small, inconspicuous area first.
Yes, the New Balance 997 typically fits true to your standard UK shoe size.
Yes, the factory insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.
No, the leather and nubuck materials are not waterproof. We recommend applying a water-repellent spray specifically designed for leather/suede to protect against minor moisture.
ABZORB is a proprietary foam material focused on shock absorption, while ENCAP is a core of soft cushioning surrounded by a durable polyurethane rim to provide stability.
Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help the shoe maintain its shape and absorb excess moisture.
Use a specialized nubuck eraser or a suede-safe cleaning solution to gently lift stains rather than scrubbing with water.
Ensure the laces are tied using the 'runner's loop' eyelet to lock the heel securely in place.
To ensure your New Balance 997 trainers last, follow these guidelines for maintenance and care. Since the shoes are crafted with leather and nubuck, avoid machine washing or total submersion in water, as this can damage the leather finish and warp the structure. Instead, use a specialized leather cleaner or a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For the nubuck sections, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dust. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators. Regarding compatibility, these trainers are true to size; ensure you select your standard UK sizing for the best fit. For those who wear custom orthotics, the internal space is generally accommodating once the factory insole is removed.
