FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 996 Made in USA trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. For intense running or training, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I determine my correct size?

It is best to measure your foot length and compare it with the New Balance sizing guide available on their official website or consult with a retailer for precise measurements.

What does 'Made in USA' signify?

'Made in USA' signifies that at least 70% of the shoe's value is of domestic origin, reflecting New Balance's commitment to manufacturing in the United States and upholding quality standards.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve their material and longevity.

What materials are typically used in the 996 series?

The 996 series often utilizes a combination of premium suede, mesh, and synthetic materials, contributing to their durability, breathability, and classic aesthetic.

How do I clean the white and black colour scheme?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap for cleaning. Ensure to use separate cloths for white and black areas if there's a risk of colour transfer, and always allow the shoes to air dry.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Consult the New Balance sizing chart or try the shoes on in person. Variations can occur between models and even within the same series.

Discomfort during initial wear

New shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your foot.

Minor scuffs or marks on the surface

Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away scuffs. For tougher marks, a specialized shoe cleaner for leather or suede (depending on material) may be used cautiously, following product instructions.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Genuine New Balance laces or comparable aftermarket options are recommended.
