FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 996 is designed as a lifestyle trainer for casual, daily use, not as a specialized running shoe.
How should I clean my New Balance 996 trainers?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for spot cleaning. Never submerge them in water or use a washing machine.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the internal liners can be removed and replaced with custom orthotics or fresh insoles if desired.
Is this model unisex?
This specific variant is designed for adult men, though New Balance offers various series and styles suitable for different genders.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Measure your feet at the end of the day when they are at their largest. A thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe is recommended for optimal comfort.
What should I do if the shoes get wet?
Remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper to help absorb moisture from the inside. Air dry in a well-ventilated area.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel slightly tight
Ensure your laces are not overtightened; if the fit persists, wear thinner socks to allow the upper material to break in.
Sole has picked up debris
Use a soft-bristled brush or a toothpick to gently remove gravel or mud from the tread pattern.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 996 trainers last as long as possible, it is essential to keep them clean. Remove surface dirt with a soft brush after use. If the materials become damp, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials. When storing, keep them in a cool, dry place. The size UK 11 provided in this model is a standard fit; if you are between sizes, consider testing them with the socks you intend to wear most frequently.
