FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the 990v6 offers good cushioning and support, they are primarily designed as trainers for daily wear, walking, and moderate athletic activities. For high-impact running, dedicated running shoes might be more appropriate.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Ensure your heel is snug and there's adequate space in the toe box without being too loose. The UK 15 is a large size, so double-checking measurements against New Balance's official size chart is recommended.
Can I put these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for these trainers, especially due to the suede materials. Hand cleaning with specific products designed for suede and trainers is the best approach.
What does 'MiUSA' stand for?
MiUSA stands for 'Made in USA,' indicating that these trainers are manufactured in New Balance's facilities within the United States.
How does the Blue and Grey colorway look in person?
The Blue and Grey colorway offers a classic yet modern aesthetic. The blue typically forms the base or primary color, complemented by grey accents on overlays or branding, creating a visually appealing contrast.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
With proper care and regular use, the New Balance 990v6 trainers are known for their durability and can last for several years, maintaining their comfort and structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or stained
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and eraser, following the product's instructions carefully. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have the correct UK size. If the shoes are new, they may require a short break-in period. Wearing them with thinner socks can also offer more immediate comfort.
Laces wear out or fray
Replace the laces with standard shoe laces of a similar length. You can find replacements at most shoe stores or online retailers.
Inside lining feels uncomfortable
Try wearing the trainers with different types of socks, such as moisture-wicking athletic socks or thicker cushioned socks, to improve comfort.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust from the suede. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner and eraser can be used, following product instructions carefully.
- General Cleaning: Wipe down other parts of the shoe with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh detergents or soaking the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or intense sunlight, which can cause materials to crack or fade.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
