FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 992 trainers are designed primarily for comfort and style in everyday wear. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specialized for high-performance running and may lack the specific support features of dedicated running shoes.
How should I store my New Balance 992 trainers?
Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. It's best to keep them in a box or a breathable shoe bag.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the suede and mesh offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Wearing them in heavy rain may damage the materials, particularly the suede, and affect the cushioning. It's advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
What does 'MADE US' signify?
'MADE US' signifies that at least 70% of the value of the shoe is of U.S. origin and assembly, indicating a commitment to domestic manufacturing and quality standards.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Your heel should be snug, with about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The width should allow your foot to sit comfortably without being squeezed. Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear.
Are there other color options available?
The New Balance 992 series is often released in various colorways. While this guide focuses on the Green/Beige option, other color combinations may be available depending on the season and retailer.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth.
Shoe feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If new, the shoes may need a short break-in period. Loosen the laces and re-tie them for a more customized fit.
Midsole cushioning feels less responsive
Over time, cushioning can naturally decrease. Ensure the shoes are clean and free from debris that might affect performance. For significant loss of cushioning, consider replacing the shoes.
Color transfer from suede
This can occur if the suede is wet. Ensure shoes are fully dry before wearing, especially in damp conditions. Using a suede protector spray can help prevent color transfer.

Care:
