FAQs

What material are these New Balance 990v6 trainers made from?

These trainers are crafted with premium leather, offering both durability and a high-quality finish.

Are these trainers suitable for running or high-intensity sports?

The New Balance 990v6 is designed for comfort, style, and everyday wear, featuring shock-absorbing technology. While they provide excellent support, they are generally intended for casual use, walking, and light activities rather than high-performance running or intense sports.

What does 'Made in USA' signify for these trainers?

'Made in USA' indicates that these New Balance trainers are manufactured in the United States, adhering to specific quality and craftsmanship standards often associated with premium products.

How should I clean my black and white New Balance 990v6 trainers?

For cleaning the premium leather, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, then gently wipe with a damp cloth and a specialized leather cleaner. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Regular conditioning will help maintain the leather's quality.

Do these trainers provide good grip?

Yes, the New Balance 990v6 features a non-slip outsole designed to provide enhanced traction and stability on various surfaces, contributing to safer all-day wear.

Are New Balance 990v6 trainers true to size?

New Balance sizing is generally consistent. However, individual foot shapes can vary. It's recommended to refer to a New Balance size guide or try them on to ensure the best fit, especially for this UK 11 model.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel uncomfortable or too tight.

Ensure you have selected the correct size (UK 11 for this model). Check if the lacing is too tight; try loosening them for a more relaxed fit. Break-in period might be needed for new leather shoes.

Slight squeaking sound when walking.

Often, squeaking can come from the insole. Remove the insoles, clean them and the inside of the shoe, then reinsert. If the issue persists, a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole can help reduce friction.

Scuffs or minor marks on the leather.

For light scuffs, a soft cloth and a dab of leather conditioner or a specialized leather balm can often buff them out. For deeper marks, professional leather care might be required. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Care

Maintaining the premium leather of your 990v6 trainers is key to their longevity and appearance. Follow these guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, dry brush or cloth after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth, following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. ![Cleaning leather shoes](#)
  • Conditioning: Periodically apply a quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. This is particularly important if the shoes are exposed to dry conditions.
  • Water Protection: While the leather offers some natural resistance, consider applying a water-resistant spray specifically designed for leather to protect against moisture and stains. These trainers are not fully waterproof.
  • Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
