FAQs
Are New Balance 990v6 trainers suitable for running?
While the 990v6 offers superior cushioning and energy return, it is primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. For serious running, New Balance offers specialized running shoe lines that are optimized for athletic performance.
What does 'MiUSA' mean?
'MiUSA' stands for 'Made in USA.' It signifies that the trainers are crafted with precision and quality in New Balance factories located within the United States.
How do I determine the correct size?
New Balance trainers generally run true to size, but it's always recommended to consult the official New Balance size guide or try them on to ensure the best fit. Your foot measurements (length and width) are key.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
The suede and mesh materials are not fully waterproof. While light rain might be tolerated, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended as it can damage the materials and affect the trainers' longevity. They are best suited for dry conditions.
How often should I clean my 990v6 trainers?
Regular, light cleaning after each wear can prevent dirt buildup. A more thorough cleaning should be performed as needed, depending on how often they are worn and the conditions they are exposed to.
Do these trainers provide good arch support?
Yes, the New Balance 990v6 is known for its supportive design, incorporating cushioning and structural elements that contribute to good arch support, making them comfortable for extended wear.
Troubleshooting
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are tying a double knot. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new ones of a similar type and length.
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The trainers may require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short durations over a few days to allow the materials to adapt to your foot. Ensure you have the correct size.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Check if the insole is properly seated; sometimes readjusting it can resolve the issue. If the squeak persists, ensure the outsole is clean and free of debris. Info needed: If the squeak is from internal components, consult New Balance support.
Minor scuffs or dirt on the suede/leather.
For suede, use a suede brush and eraser. For leather, a damp cloth followed by a leather conditioner can often buff out minor marks. Always clean gently and test on an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Your New Balance 990v6 Trainers come ready to wear. Simply unbox, lace them up to your preferred tightness, and enjoy the comfort.
- Lacing: Ensure laces are threaded evenly through all eyelets. Start with a comfortable snugness that allows for foot flexibility without constriction.
- First Wear: Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot's shape, enhancing personalized comfort.
Compatibility
The sleek black, grey, and white design makes these trainers highly versatile. They complement a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits, from jeans and chinos to shorts. Their classic aesthetic also pairs well with athleisure wear.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your 990v6 Trainers, especially with their mixed material construction.
- General Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (e.g., a suede brush for suede areas). For mesh and leather panels, wipe with a damp cloth.
- Spot Cleaning: For stubborn marks, use a specialized sneaker cleaner designed for multi-material footwear. Apply a small amount to a clean cloth and gently blot the stain. Avoid saturating the materials.
- Suede Care: Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper stains on suede, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid water directly on suede.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the materials and construction.
