FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 991v2 trainers feature ABZORB cushioning for comfort and impact absorption, making them suitable for light jogging. However, they are primarily designed as lifestyle shoes and not for high-performance running or athletic training.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot. Given these are UK-made, checking your UK sizing is recommended. Many users find them to fit true to size, but individual foot shapes can vary.

What is the benefit of the 'Made in UK' label?

The 'Made in UK' designation signifies a high standard of craftsmanship and attention to detail, reflecting New Balance's heritage in quality footwear manufacturing.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the trainers have a rubber outsole for traction, the suede and mesh upper are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.

How often should I clean my 991v2 trainers?

Clean your trainers as needed, particularly after exposure to dirt or significant wear. Regular spot cleaning and proper storage will help maintain their appearance and longevity.

What is ABZORB technology?

ABZORB is a proprietary New Balance cushioning technology that absorbs impact and provides a responsive feel, enhancing comfort during wear.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The 'Vibrant Chroma' pack specifically features this blue colorway. However, the 991v2 model is released in various colorways over time. Please check available listings for other options.

Troubleshooting

Uneven wear on outsole

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. Uneven wear can sometimes indicate improper fit or that the shoes are being used for activities beyond their intended purpose.

Discomfort after prolonged wear

Verify that you have the correct size and width. Ensure laces are tied appropriately to provide adequate support. The ABZORB midsole may require a short break-in period.

Suede appears matted or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For stubborn dirt or stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.
