FAQs

What type of activities are these shoes suitable for?

The New Balance 990 V6 is primarily designed for everyday casual wear, walking, and general daily activities. Its non-slip and shock-absorbing features provide excellent comfort and support for urban environments and extended periods on your feet.

How do I clean the premium leather upper?

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner, following the product instructions carefully. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemical cleaners.

Are these shoes true to size?

New Balance shoes, including the 990 V6, generally run true to size. It is recommended to select your standard UK size for adult men. If you are between sizes, consider trying your usual size first.

What are the benefits of the shock-absorbing construction?

The shock-absorbing construction is engineered to significantly reduce the impact on your feet and joints with each step. This provides enhanced comfort, support, and helps minimize fatigue during prolonged wear.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the non-slip construction offers improved traction, the premium leather material is not inherently waterproof. It's advisable to avoid heavy rain or standing water to protect the leather's quality and longevity. For added protection, consider applying a water-resistant spray specifically for leather.

Is the sole replaceable?

The outsole of the New Balance 990 V6 is not designed to be easily replaceable. However, the insole is removable, allowing you to replace it with custom orthotics if needed for personalized comfort and support.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure correct sizing; New Balance shoes typically run true to size. Allow a brief break-in period for the premium leather to conform to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different lacing technique.

Squeaking sound when walking

Check if the insole is properly seated within the shoe. Sometimes, removing and reinserting the insole can resolve this. Also, clean the outsole thoroughly for any trapped debris that might be causing friction.

Leather appears dull or scuffed

Clean the affected area promptly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Apply a suitable leather conditioner or polish, specifically designed for premium leather, to restore shine and protect the material. Regular conditioning can prevent dullness.

Noticeable odor from shoes

Ensure shoes are fully aired out after each use. Remove insoles occasionally for separate airing. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Avoid wearing the same pair every day.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your premium leather New Balance 990 V6:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather surfaces with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft brush or cloth, following the product's instructions.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This helps maintain the material's natural sheen.
  3. Drying: If shoes become wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  5. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
