FAQs
What is ABZORB cushioning?
ABZORB is a proprietary cushioning technology from New Balance that provides a responsive and supportive feel by absorbing shock effectively.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While the 992 offers excellent comfort, they are primarily designed for lifestyle wear and light athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized performance running shoes are recommended.
How do I clean the mesh parts of the trainers?
Use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the mesh areas. Avoid excessive scrubbing and allow to air dry.
What is the difference between the 992 and other New Balance series?
The 992 is known for its specific combination of ABZORB cushioning, premium materials, and a distinct design that balances classic style with modern technical elements, often distinguishing it from other series like the 990 which has its own unique characteristics.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The suede and mesh materials are not fully waterproof. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The trainer should feel snug but not tight, with enough room in the toe box to wiggle your toes comfortably. The heel should not slip excessively.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing
Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. Check for any internal seams or tags that might be causing irritation.
Suede appearing matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. For persistent dirt, use a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Laces wear out
Replace laces with a standard pair of athletic shoelaces. Measure your old laces or count the eyelets to determine the appropriate length.
