FAQs
What is ABZORB cushioning?
ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary technology that provides superior shock absorption and cushioning, helping to reduce the impact on your feet and joints.
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While they offer excellent comfort and support for everyday wear and walking, the 992 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual trainer, not a specialized running shoe.
How do I know if my UK size is correct?
It is recommended to measure your foot and consult a New Balance size chart that specifically details UK sizing conversions to ensure an accurate fit.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, mesh, and cushioning materials.
What is the difference between suede and leather versions?
Suede versions typically offer a softer, more casual aesthetic and require specific care. Leather versions may offer slightly more durability and water resistance but can be stiffer initially.
Where are these trainers manufactured?
These New Balance 992 trainers are crafted in the USA.
What is the typical lifespan of these trainers?
With proper care and regular use, these trainers are designed for durability. Lifespan can vary depending on usage intensity, but typically they last for several years of consistent wear.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort after initial wear
New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time.
Suede appears dirty or stained
Gently brush off dry dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions, and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you are using the correct sizing conversion if ordering internationally. Try wearing thinner socks or consider a professional stretching service if the fit is consistently tight.
Laces fraying
Replace laces with new ones. New Balance offers replacement laces, or choose a similar style from a reputable accessory brand.
