FAQs

How do I clean the leather uppers?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While originally designed as running shoes, the 996 is primarily a lifestyle shoe. For serious running, consider shoes designed specifically for that purpose.

What is the ENCAP midsole?

The ENCAP midsole is a technology that provides cushioning and support for all-day comfort.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the New Balance size chart. It's recommended to measure your feet and compare them with the size chart.
