FAQs
Are these New Balance 996 trainers suitable for running?
While durable and comfortable, the 996 is primarily a lifestyle and casual walking shoe, not a dedicated high-performance running sneaker.
How do I determine if a UK 7.5 is the right size for me?
It is recommended to measure your foot in the afternoon when it is at its largest and compare it against the New Balance standard sizing chart.
Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?
It is strongly advised against putting sneakers in the washing machine as it can damage the structural adhesives and materials.
What does the MiUSA designation mean for these trainers?
MiUSA refers to 'Made in USA,' indicating that the shoes are crafted in New Balance's domestic manufacturing facilities, often associated with premium materials and craftsmanship.
How should I store my New Balance trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the Pink Haze color to fade over time.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the Pink Haze surface
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution or a mild soap-water mix with a soft-bristled brush to gently scrub the affected area.
Laces becoming frayed or damaged
Replace with standard length athletic laces that match the gauge of the originals to maintain the intended look.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 996 trainers maintain their appearance, proper care is essential. Given the Pink Haze upper, it is recommended to treat the shoes with a protective spray suitable for sneakers before the first use to repel liquids and dirt. If the shoes become soiled, spot clean them using a soft brush or a clean cloth dipped in mild soapy water, avoiding harsh chemicals that could discolor the materials. Regarding compatibility, this UK 7.5 size is designed for a standard adult fit. Always ensure you are wearing socks that match the activity level to maintain the internal integrity of the lining.
