FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for intense running?
While the 990v6 offers great support, it is primarily designed as a high-performance lifestyle trainer rather than a dedicated long-distance running shoe.
How do I maintain the beige and grey finish?
Use a protective water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for suede and mesh before the first wear.
Is the sizing true to standard UK measurements?
Yes, the shoes are designed according to standard UK sizing, though we recommend trying them on in the afternoon when feet are slightly swollen for the best fit.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
We strongly advise against machine washing, as the agitation and heat can damage the adhesives and delicate upper materials.
What is the primary difference between the 990v6 and previous versions?
The 990v6 features updated midsole cushioning and refined paneling for a modern look and an even smoother ride.
Troubleshooting
Visible surface stains on the light material
Gently spot clean with a mixture of mild soap and water, using a clean cloth. Avoid soaking the shoe completely.
Laces becoming loose during wear
Ensure a double knot is used if the laces are prone to slipping, or replace with high-friction performance laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Upon receiving your trainers, ensure the fit is snug but comfortable to allow for natural foot expansion during the day. For daily maintenance, brush off loose dirt using a soft-bristled brush after use to prevent debris from settling into the fabric. If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede and mesh cleaner to ensure the integrity of the textures remains intact.
