Product Information

Full details

These New Balance Made in USA 990v4 trainers are designed for the adult male seeking premium, stylish, and comfortable footwear with a nod to heritage running shoe design. The key benefit is the blend of luxurious materials, superior comfort from the ABZORB midsole, and the distinct 'Magic Blue' accents that set them apart from typical neutral offerings. A potential caveat is their premium price point, reflecting the 'Made in USA' craftsmanship. Key features include a suede and mesh upper, leather detailing, an ABZORB midsole for cushioning, and a durable rubber outsole.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 990v4 has heritage as a running shoe and offers excellent cushioning, they are primarily considered lifestyle trainers today. They are suitable for light jogging or gym use but may not offer the specialized features of modern performance running shoes.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate foot measurements. Generally, these trainers fit true to size, but personal preference for snugness or roominess can influence the best fit.

What is the main difference between the 990v4 and previous versions?

The 990v4, introduced in 2016, refined the v3 with updated aesthetics and materials, including enhanced cushioning and a modernized silhouette, while retaining the core comfort and support principles of the original 990 line.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The suede upper is not inherently waterproof. While they can withstand light moisture, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended without appropriate protective treatments. Ensure they are dried properly if they get wet.

What does 'Made in USA' signify for these trainers?

'Made in USA' signifies a commitment to premium craftsmanship and quality. These shoes are produced in New Balance factories in the United States, reflecting meticulous attention to detail and superior materials.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight. Avoid storing in damp conditions.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight

Wear with thinner socks initially, or consider trying a half-size up if the tightness persists after a break-in period. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.

Suede material showing scuffs

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove superficial scuffs. For deeper marks, a suede eraser may be effective.

Sole feels stiff

The ABZORB midsole may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your feet.

Discoloration on mesh areas

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.
