FAQs
Is the New Balance 992 suitable for running?
While the 992 features great comfort and support, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle and walking sneaker rather than a technical performance running shoe.
How should I clean the suede portions of the shoe?
Use a dry suede brush or eraser. Do not machine wash or use harsh chemical cleaners on the suede.
Does the shoe fit true to size?
The New Balance 992 generally follows standard sizing for adult men, but it is recommended to reference the specific UK size 10.5 if you are accustomed to US or EU sizing systems.
Can I use water-repellent spray on these?
Yes, a protective spray designed specifically for suede and leather can help prevent stains, but ensure you test a small, inconspicuous area first.
What is the purpose of the yellow details?
The yellow details are part of the specific color-blocking aesthetic of the 992 model, providing a modern contrast to the grey and blue color palette.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede panels
Use a specialized dry suede brush to gently lift debris without damaging the fibers.
Creasing in the leather overlays
Use shoe trees when not wearing the trainers to help maintain the structure of the toe box and upper.
Stains on mesh fabric
Apply a mild soap solution with a soft cloth and dab the area; avoid soaking the entire shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these sneakers utilize suede and leather, proper care is essential. To maintain the condition of the grey panels, use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dust regularly. Avoid wearing these shoes in wet or muddy conditions, as water can cause the suede to stiffen and lose its texture. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees or paper stuffing to help the leather maintain its shape. To preserve the yellow lace accents, consider spot-cleaning them separately with a mild detergent if they become discolored.
