FAQs

Are the New Balance 991v1 trainers true to size?

Yes, the 991v1 generally fits true to size for standard foot widths.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the leather, adhesives, and cushioning materials. Always clean by hand.

What is the primary difference between Encap and Abzorb?

Encap provides core support and stability with a PU rim, while Abzorb is a foam-based material focused on compression and impact absorption.

How do I protect the leather from water damage?

Apply a reputable leather-safe water repellent spray to provide a barrier against moisture and environmental stains.

Are these shoes suitable for heavy exercise?

While they are comfortable and supportive, the 991v1 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer rather than a performance-specific athletic shoe.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

Natural creasing is expected with premium leather; minimize this by using shoe trees when not in use.

Dirt stuck in debossed leather patterns

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove trapped debris without damaging the leather texture.

Reflective details appear dull

Gently clean the reflective patches with a damp cloth to remove any film or dust that obscures their light-reflecting properties.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional underfoot comfort from dual-cushioning technology
  • Sophisticated design suitable for both casual and smart-casual outfits
  • High-quality construction using premium materials
  • Reflective accents enhance safety and style
  • Proven silhouette with lasting popularity

Cons

  • Leather surfaces require specific cleaning and conditioning
  • May require a short break-in period for the leather to soften
  • Higher maintenance compared to all-synthetic mesh trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your 991v1 trainers maintain their performance, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, dry cloth after each wear. For deeper cleans, use a damp cloth and mild leather-safe cleaner, avoiding excessive water saturation.
  2. Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather fading and material degradation.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers pair well with denim, chinos, or casual trousers, making them highly versatile for a modern wardrobe. Use a water and stain repellent spray specifically formulated for leather to protect against moisture.
