FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 992 "Olivine" trainers are primarily designed for everyday wear, walking, and casual use. While they offer good support, they may not provide the specialized cushioning and features required for serious or long-distance running.
What is the "Olivine" color?
"Olivine" is a shade of green, inspired by the mineral of the same name. It's a versatile, subtle green that complements many casual outfits.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box and the heel does not slip when walking. Trying them on indoors before outdoor use is recommended.
Can I machine wash these trainers?

What is the warranty period for New Balance shoes?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring an even distribution of pressure. Consider wearing them for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in.
Discoloration on the upper.
Gently wipe the affected area with a clean, slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution sparingly and rinse with a clean, damp cloth. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first.
Slight squeaking noise during wear.
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces. If the noise persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help absorb moisture causing friction.
Sole appears worn or damaged.
Inspect the sole for significant damage like cracks or detachment. Minor wear is normal. For significant damage, professional shoe repair may be an option, or consider replacement.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning the Upper: For synthetic leather and textile areas, use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which can damage the materials.
- Suede Accents (if applicable to specific variants): Use a dedicated suede brush to clean any suede components. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner may be necessary.
- Laces: Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
- Drying: Always air dry the trainers. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can cause materials to shrink or warp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or original box to protect them from dust and damage.
