FAQs
Are the New Balance 997 trainers waterproof?
No, they are made of leather and are not classified as waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.
Can I use these for running?
The 997 is a lifestyle trainer. While it provides comfort for walking, it is not designed for distance running or high-intensity athletic training.
How should I clean the cream-colored leather?
Use a soft, dry brush to remove dust and a damp cloth with a mild leather-safe cleaner for stains. Do not machine wash.
Is the 997 true to size?
Generally, the New Balance 997 fits true to standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual size for the best fit.
What is the primary material used in this model?
This specific variant features a high-quality leather construction for the upper, paired with a supportive foam midsole.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface shows scuff marks
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth to gently buff the affected area.
Midsole feels less bouncy over time
Rotate your trainers with another pair to allow the foam to decompress fully between wears.
Shoes develop an odor from daily wear
Remove the insoles and allow the shoes to air out in a well-ventilated area for 24 hours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your New Balance 997 trainers in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is constructed from leather, avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh industrial chemicals. Instead, use a soft-bristle brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the material. Ensure you select the correct UK size, as the 997 series offers a consistent, standard fit designed for adult foot dimensions.
