FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

While the New Balance 992 features responsive cushioning technology (ENCAP and ABZORB) derived from running shoes, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for daily wear and casual activities, not performance running.

What materials are used in the upper?

The upper typically features a blend of airy mesh with premium materials such as suede and leather, providing both breathability and a classic aesthetic. This specific variant has a leather upper.

How do I clean my New Balance 992 trainers?

Gently wipe the mesh and synthetic/leather/suede upper with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. For specific materials like suede or leather, use appropriate cleaning products. Do not machine wash.

Is the sizing true to fit?

New Balance 992 trainers generally run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. This specific variant is UK 7.

What does 'Made in USA' signify?

The 'Made in USA' designation for New Balance 992 trainers indicates that these shoes are manufactured in the United States using domestic and imported materials, often signifying premium craftsmanship and quality.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The mesh and suede/leather upper offers some protection but is not fully waterproof. For optimal longevity, it's best to avoid heavy rain or prolonged exposure to moisture. Consider using a water-repellent spray for added protection.

Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the lacing system. The lace-up design allows for custom tension. Try different lacing patterns if standard lacing doesn't provide the desired comfort.

Foot odor develops.

Ensure trainers are fully dry after each use. Use odor-absorbing inserts or sprays. Allow them to air out in a well-ventilated area. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.

The NDurance outsole provides good traction, but extreme conditions (e.g., icy, oily surfaces) can still be challenging. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris. If the problem persists, evaluate the environment.

Discoloration or scuffs on the upper.

For light discoloration, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. For suede, use a suede cleaner and brush. For leather, use a leather-specific cleaner and protectant. Address scuffs promptly with appropriate material care products.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your New Balance 992 trainers is straightforward:

  1. Lace-Up: Ensure the laces are loosened sufficiently. Slide your foot into the trainer.
  2. Adjust Fit: Tighten the laces from the bottom upwards, ensuring an even tension across your foot. The lace-up design allows for a secure and customized fit.
  3. Knot: Tie the laces securely to prevent them from coming undone during wear.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for:

  • Adults: Specifically sized for adult feet (UK 7 in this variant).
  • Casual Wear: Ideal for daily activities, urban environments, and lifestyle use.
  • Various Outfits: Complements a wide range of casual and smart-casual clothing.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance 992 trainers, follow these care guidelines:

  • General Cleaning: For regular maintenance, gently wipe the mesh and synthetic/leather/suede upper with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild soap solution for stubborn dirt.
  • Suede/Leather Care: For suede sections, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For leather, use a leather cleaner and conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.
  • Outsole Cleaning: Use a stiff brush (like an old toothbrush) to clean dirt and debris from the NDurance rubber outsole.
  • Drying: Always allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, as these can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading and material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can severely damage the materials and construction.
