New Balance 992 - Grey

While the 992 features excellent cushioning, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear and daily comfort, not high-performance athletic activities like running or intense sports.

'MiUSA' stands for 'Made in USA.' It signifies that the shoe has been crafted in New Balance's factories within the United States, representing a commitment to quality and American craftsmanship.

The metallic accents are generally durable. To maintain their shine, simply wipe them gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes that could scratch the finish.

New Balance sizing is generally consistent. However, fit can vary slightly between models and individual foot shapes. We recommend trying them on or consulting a New Balance size guide for the most accurate fit.

Due to the pigskin suede and mesh upper, these shoes are not ideal for heavy rain or wet conditions. Exposure to excessive moisture can damage the suede and potentially cause discoloration. Consider applying a water-resistant spray for light protection.

ABZORB is New Balance's proprietary foam-based cushioning technology that provides superior shock absorption and compression resistance. This translates to enhanced comfort, reduced impact on your joints, and support for all-day wear.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently brush the affected areas, lifting the nap and restoring its original texture. For stubborn matting, a suede eraser can be effective.

Remove the insoles and allow them and the shoes to air out completely. Sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes and on the insoles overnight to absorb odors, then shake it out. Specialized shoe deodorizers can also be used.

Often, squeaking comes from the insole rubbing against the shoe's interior. Try removing the insoles and sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or talcum powder underneath them. If the squeaking persists, it might indicate a manufacturing issue; contact customer support.
