FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?

The New Balance 997H Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good support for walking, they are not specialized athletic shoes and may not provide the necessary performance or protection for intense sports activities like running or basketball.

How do I clean the white suede material?

For white suede, use a dry suede brush or eraser to remove dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test cleaners on a small, hidden area first and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat.

What type of socks should I wear with these trainers?

You can wear these trainers with a variety of socks, from thin athletic socks to thicker casual socks, depending on your preference and the weather. Ensure the socks are clean and comfortable for all-day wear.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

These trainers are not waterproof. While the rubber sole offers some protection, the suede and textile materials can be damaged by prolonged exposure to water. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. Applying a suede protector can offer some water resistance.

What is the main benefit of the cushioning in these trainers?

The extra cushioning provides enhanced comfort and support, reducing fatigue for your feet during extended periods of standing or walking. It gives a softer feel with every step, making them ideal for daily use.

How does the breathable technology work?

The breathable technology is integrated into the materials used for the upper part of the shoe. This allows for better air circulation, helping to keep your feet cool and preventing them from becoming too warm or sweaty.

Are these trainers available in other colors or sizes?

Yes, the New Balance 997H series often comes in various colorways and sizes. Please check the product listings or New Balance's official site for available options beyond this specific white model.

Troubleshooting

Slightly tight fit upon first wear.

Wear the trainers around the house with socks for a short period to allow the materials to mold to your feet. Avoid wearing them outside until they feel comfortable.

Dirt or stains on the white suede.

Gently use a suede eraser for dry marks. For tougher stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a cloth and follow the product instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Fading of color or material damage after cleaning.

Ensure you are using appropriate cleaning products specifically designed for suede and textile. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat.

Discomfort after prolonged wear.

Ensure you have the correct size and width. The cushioning is designed for comfort, but individual foot shapes vary. Consider if the activity exceeds the intended use for casual trainers.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a soft brush or a suede eraser to gently remove dry dirt and marks. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Avoid using water excessively, as it can damage suede.
  2. Cleaning Textile and Rubber: Wipe down textile areas with a slightly damp cloth. The rubber outsole can be cleaned with mild soap and water.
  3. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can warp the materials.
  4. Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially for the white colorway.
