FAQs
Are the New Balance 990v4 trainers suitable for running?
While the 990 series was originally designed with running in mind and offers excellent comfort and support, the v4 is now more widely considered a lifestyle and fashion sneaker due to its premium materials and refined aesthetic. For serious athletic training, dedicated running shoes might be more appropriate.
How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by New Balance or your retailer. Generally, UK sizes are measured differently than US or EU sizes. Measuring your foot length and comparing it to the chart is recommended.
Can these trainers be worn in wet weather?
The suede and mesh materials are not inherently waterproof. While they can handle light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Allow them to air dry thoroughly if they get wet.
What does 'Made in USA' signify for this product?
'Made in USA' signifies that at least 70% of the shoe's value is from domestic materials and labor, indicating a commitment to domestic manufacturing and often a higher standard of quality and craftsmanship.
How often should I clean my 990v4 trainers?
Clean your trainers as needed based on wear and visible dirt. Regular brushing of the suede can prevent excessive dirt build-up. Avoid overwashing.
What is the main difference between 990v3 and 990v4?
The v4 refined the modernization introduced in the v3, offering subtle updates to the silhouette and construction for an even sleeker look and enhanced comfort, while maintaining the core design ethos.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels stiff or uncomfortable
The 990v4 may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct size.
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions.
Discoloration on suede or mesh
Avoid exposure to excessive moisture or direct, prolonged sunlight. Clean gently with a damp cloth or appropriate cleaner for the material.

Care: To maintain the premium appearance and longevity of your 990v4 trainers:
