Full details
The New Balance 992 Colorblock is designed for adult men who value a mix of high-performance comfort and a standout, energetic aesthetic.

FAQs
Are the New Balance 992 true to size?
Yes, the 992 series generally fits true to size for most users, offering a standard width.
Can I put my New Balance 992s in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can cause permanent damage to the suede, colors, and adhesives of the shoes.
What is the primary material of these trainers?
The exterior features a combination of premium suede overlays, leather accents, and durable blue mesh underlays.
Is the 992 suitable for running?
While the 992 offers excellent comfort and stability, it is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for daily wear rather than high-performance distance running.
How do I maintain the vibrant color accents?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and moisture, which are the primary causes of color degradation in suede footwear.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede panels
Use a dry suede brush in one direction to lift the nap and remove surface debris.
Stains on the midsole
Wipe the rubber midsole with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid getting water on the suede sections.
Creasing at the toe box
Use shoe trees when not in use to help the shoe retain its shape and minimize deep creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 992 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Treat the suede components with a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather/suede before initial use.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For deeper stains, use a suede-specific eraser or cleaning solution, dabbing gently rather than scrubbing to avoid damaging the nap.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant colors from fading.
- Moisture Prevention: Avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain, as water can leave permanent marks on the suede and affect the midsole bond.
