FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the New Balance 993 series generally fits true to standard UK sizing.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing will damage the suede and the structural integrity of the shoe.
What is the benefit of the ACTEVA midsole?
ACTEVA is a foam technology designed to provide responsive cushioning that is lightweight yet supportive.
Is the suede treated for water resistance?
The suede is not inherently waterproof. You may use a gentle, leather-safe water repellent spray, but test a small patch first.
What does 'Made in USA' signify?
It indicates that the shoe meets high domestic production standards and utilizes a significant percentage of U.S. materials.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs or dirt on the suede
Use a dry suede brush or eraser to gently lift the dirt without wetting the material.
Creasing in the toe box area
Insert shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe maintain its original shape.
Internal lining odor
Remove the insoles to air them out and use a mild, shoe-safe deodorizing spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Upon receiving your trainers, ensure the UK 12 sizing fits comfortably with your preferred sock thickness. To maintain the appearance of the suede and mesh:
- Avoid Water Exposure: Do not submerge in water or wear in heavy rain, as this can damage the suede texture.
- Routine Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust after each wear.
- Spot Treating: For minor marks on the suede, use a specialized suede eraser rather than liquid cleaners.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and keep the materials supple.
