New Balance NB996 Deep Blue Trainers - UK 7

The New Balance NB996 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good support for walking, they are not optimized for high-impact running or athletic performance.

Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner, testing it on an inconspicuous area first. Allow them to air dry naturally.

The 996 series is renowned for its iconic, timeless silhouette that balances retro aesthetics with modern comfort, making it a versatile choice for everyday style.

While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage and maintain their appearance. Ensure they are properly dried if they get damp.

The NB996 model is available in various colourways and sizes. You may find other options by checking the product listings for the New Balance 996 series.

With proper care and regular use for intended purposes, the durable leather construction of the NB996 trainers typically allows for several years of wear.

Try the trainers with different sock thicknesses. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a half-size up or down based on typical New Balance sizing recommendations. Refer to the size chart for accurate measurements.

Use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner to gently remove marks. For minor scuffs, a soft brush might help restore the texture.

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to provide adequate support without being too tight. Break-in periods can vary; continue wearing them for short periods to allow them to conform to your foot.
