FAQs

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the New Balance 991V2 is designed as a unisex model.

Where are these shoes manufactured?

These trainers are part of the 'Made in UK' collection, crafted at the New Balance factory in Flimby.

Can I use these for running?

While they feature high-tech cushioning, they are lifestyle trainers designed for walking and daily wear rather than performance running.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from a premium blend of materials, primarily high-quality suede.

Do they have reflective elements?

Yes, the model includes 3M reflective details for added visibility.

How do I maintain the suede texture?

Regularly use a suede brush to keep the fibers lifted and apply a protective suede spray to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede upper

Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift and remove surface dirt.

Slight discomfort during initial wear

The 991V2 features robust construction that may require a short 'break-in' period; wear them for short durations indoors first.

Material scuffing

Use a suede eraser tool to gently buff out scuff marks without applying excessive pressure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your 991V2 trainers maintain their structure and aesthetic, follow these guidelines:

  1. Protection: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray before wearing them outside to shield against moisture and stains.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the suede texture.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading of the suede panels.
  4. Fit: These trainers are generally true to size. Ensure you have the correct UK size before breaking them in during short walks.
  5. Maintenance: If the shoe gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
