FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the New Balance 990v4 generally fits true to size for most adults, though those with wider feet may prefer the standard width or a half-size adjustment.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No. Machine washing can ruin the integrity of the pigskin suede and the structural adhesives used in the construction.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper consists of a high-quality combination of breathable mesh and premium pigskin suede overlays.
Are these suitable for intense athletic activity?
While the 990v4 was built with performance running roots, it is today primarily regarded as a lifestyle sneaker for daily comfort.
How often should I clean the suede?
It is best to brush the suede lightly after every few wears to prevent dirt from embedding into the material.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a suede brush or a clean, dry toothbrush to gently brush the fibers in one direction to restore the nap.
Midsole shows surface scuffs
Use a magic eraser or a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild dish soap to gently rub the scuffed area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 990v4 trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to protect the pigskin overlays.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or dust from the mesh and suede. For deeper stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding complete saturation of the material.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the brown and pink colorways over time.
- Air Dry: If the shoes get wet, air dry them naturally at room temperature. Never use a tumble dryer or direct heat sources like radiators, as this can warp the sole and ruin the leather quality.
