FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 992 features high-quality cushioning, it is categorized as a lifestyle trainer and is better suited for walking and everyday use rather than high-performance distance running.
How do I clean suede shoes?
Avoid submerging them in water. Use a suede-specific brush or eraser. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and apply it sparingly with a soft cloth.
Are these shoes true to size?
New Balance 992s generally run true to standard adult sizing, though preferences can vary based on individual foot width.
What is the primary material?
The upper is crafted from premium suede, providing both durability and a classic, high-end appearance.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if necessary for personalized arch support.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt or dust on the suede surface
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift and remove dry dirt particles in a consistent direction.
Light scuff marks on the suede
Gently rub the affected area with a clean pencil eraser or a dedicated suede cleaning block to lift the nap.
The shoe feels slightly tight at first
Ensure the laces are properly loosened; suede typically allows for slight natural expansion after a few wears.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are designed for immediate wear right out of the box, requiring no complex break-in period. For optimal longevity, store your New Balance 992s in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the suede. If the shoes become wet, air-dry them naturally at room temperature—avoid using direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as these can warp the material or cause the glue to weaken. We recommend using a specialized suede brush to remove surface dirt and a protective suede spray before initial use to provide a barrier against moisture and environmental debris.
