FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear or just running?
The New Balance 990v6 is designed with advanced running technologies like FuelCell and ENCAP for optimal performance during athletic activities. However, its premium materials and sophisticated, streamlined aesthetic also make it a comfortable and stylish choice for everyday casual wear.
What do 'FuelCell' and 'ENCAP' technologies do?
FuelCell is a high-rebound foam integrated into the midsole that provides increased propulsion and a more energetic feel, enhancing your running efficiency. ENCAP is a core of soft EVA foam with a tough polyurethane rim, offering durable support and maximum shock absorption, particularly under the heel.
How should I clean the suede and mesh materials on my 990v6?
For best results, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose dirt from both the suede and mesh. For stains, gently wipe with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild shoe cleaner designed for suede. Always allow your shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources.
What does 'MADE in USA' signify for this product?
The 'MADE in USA' designation for the 990v6 means that the shoe has a domestic value of 70% or more, reflecting New Balance's commitment to quality craftsmanship and domestic manufacturing standards.
Is the sizing true to fit for the New Balance 990v6?
New Balance 990v6 generally runs true to size. We recommend selecting your standard UK shoe size. If you are typically between sizes, it's often advisable to try the larger size for running shoes or consult a detailed New Balance sizing guide for the best fit.
Can I use these shoes for sports other than running?
While optimized for running, the stable design and comfortable cushioning of the 990v6 make it suitable for light gym workouts or extended walking. However, for sports requiring specialized lateral support, ankle stability, or specific grip patterns, dedicated footwear might be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose during wear.
Adjust the lacing tension. Consider trying different lacing patterns that provide more or less room in specific areas. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size 8; comfort can vary with foot width and arch.
Suede material appears dirty, faded, or stained.
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For deeper stains, carefully blot with a damp cloth and a small amount of specialized suede cleaner, then allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Experiencing discomfort or rubbing during runs.
Ensure your socks are appropriate for running and fit well. Allow for a short break-in period if the shoes are new, as materials conform to your foot over time. If discomfort persists, consult a running specialist for gait analysis to confirm the shoe's suitability for your stride.
Shoe sole feels less responsive or worn out quickly.
The lifespan of running shoe soles depends on usage. FuelCell and ENCAP are durable, but heavy use will lead to natural wear. Ensure proper cleaning to prevent dirt from degrading materials. If the responsiveness significantly diminishes, it may be time to consider replacement.
