FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

The 990v3 generally runs true to standard New Balance sizing. If you have owned previous versions of the 990, the fit should be consistent.

What is the significance of the 2006 and 2021 embroidery?

These numbers commemorate the founding of Bodega in 2006 and their 15th anniversary in 2021.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. The suede upper can be easily damaged and stained by water and moisture.

How do I best preserve the suede finish?

Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and apply a suede protector spray before the first wear.

Where are these shoes manufactured?

This model is part of the New Balance Made in USA collection.

Troubleshooting

Visible surface dust on suede

Use a dry, soft-bristled brush to gently stroke the suede in one direction to lift off dirt.

Creasing on the leather overlays

Use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the shape and reduce permanent creasing in the leather.

Minor scuffs on midsole

Wipe with a melamine sponge or a damp microfiber cloth to restore the cream finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your sneakers remain in prime condition, avoid machine washing or submerging them in water. For general cleaning, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt from the suede panels. If the leather portions become marked, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap solution. It is recommended to use a suede-specific water-repellent spray to protect the exterior against moisture. Since these are standard UK size 11, ensure you pair them with athletic socks that provide adequate moisture-wicking properties to keep the interior lining fresh for extended use.
