FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?

The New Balance 983 is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear rather than technical long-distance running.

Does the 983 series fit true to size?

Generally, yes, but because of the sculpted design, some users may prefer a half-size larger depending on foot shape.

What is the primary cushioning technology used?

These shoes feature ABZORB SBS pods, which are engineered for superior shock absorption.

Can I remove the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to use custom orthotics.

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the 983 series is designed as a unisex product, though sizing is provided in standard adult UK formats.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on the upper material

This is natural for multilayered uppers; using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain the intended shape.

Difficulty cleaning textured areas

Use a toothbrush dipped in a gentle soap solution to reach into the crevices of the multilayered design.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 983 trainers stay in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and water solution on a cloth; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  2. Drying: Air dry at room temperature away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape of the sculpted midsole.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard fit, but note that material variations—such as leather versus nylon—may result in slight differences in how the shoe feels on your foot.
