FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the New Balance 990v1 generally follows standard sizing conventions for UK adult footwear.

Can I use these for running?

While durable, the 990v1 is a lifestyle model. It is best suited for walking and casual wear rather than long-distance or high-intensity running.

How should I clean the leather or suede components?

Use a specialized leather or suede cleaner and a soft brush. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Is this a unisex model?

This specific variant is designed for men, though the 990 series does offer various models with different fit profiles.

What should I do if the shoes get wet?

Remove the insoles, stuff the shoes with paper towels to absorb moisture, and let them air dry in a well-ventilated area.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight during long wear

Adjust the lacing tension throughout the day or check if you are wearing the appropriate thickness of socks for the season.

Soles collecting dirt in the tread

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge debris from the outsoles after use to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these are standard lace-up trainers, no complex setup is required. Ensure you verify your UK foot size of 11 for the best fit, as the 990v1 series offers a consistent, standard width. To maintain the condition of your trainers, avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or degrading.
