FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 990v6 is highly supportive and comfortable for walking and casual daily wear, it is classified as a lifestyle trainer rather than a high-performance long-distance running shoe.
How should I clean the suede panels?
Use a dry suede brush to lift dirt. For spot cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and avoid excessive moisture.
Do these shoes fit true to size?
The 990v6 generally follows standard sizing, though the structure of the v6 may feel slightly more contoured compared to earlier 990 models.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is best to avoid wet conditions, as moisture can damage the suede and make the light-colored mesh difficult to clean.
What does MiUSA stand for?
MiUSA stands for 'Made in USA,' indicating that the shoe is manufactured in New Balance’s domestic production facilities to meet high quality and craftsmanship standards.
Troubleshooting
Surface scuffing on suede
Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft, dry brush to gently buff away marks.
Staining on light fabric
Apply a gentle, water-based foam cleaner specifically formulated for suede and let it air dry completely.
Comfort or fit adjustment
Experiment with different lacing techniques to adjust the tension across the midfoot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature delicate suede, proper care is essential. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dust or surface dirt after each wear to prevent it from settling into the fabric. For deeper cleaning, utilize a dedicated suede cleaner and avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them through a washing machine, as this can damage the material and affect the adhesive bonds. Keep them stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white colors from fading or yellowing over time.
