FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 997H trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not engineered for high-impact running or athletic training.

How do I clean the suede and mesh parts?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth for general cleaning. For stains on suede, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always air dry away from heat.

What is the main difference between the 997H and other New Balance models?

The 997H is a modern, streamlined evolution of the classic 997, designed for lifestyle wear with a focus on contemporary aesthetics while retaining heritage design cues.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the suede and mesh offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Using a suede protector spray can add some water resistance.

What size is UK 9 in other measurements?

UK size 9 typically corresponds to approximately US size 10 and EU size 43, but it's always best to consult a specific size chart for precise conversions.

What materials are used in the construction?

These trainers feature a combination of suede and mesh for the upper, with a rubber sole for durability and traction.

How durable are the New Balance 997H trainers?

Built with quality materials and New Balance's reputation for durability, the 997H is designed for regular wear. Proper care and maintenance will extend their lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For more stubborn stains, use a suede cleaner and follow product instructions. Allow to air dry.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly tight, wearing them with medium-thickness socks for short periods can help them stretch. Consider different lacing techniques for pressure relief.

Mesh material shows signs of wear.

Avoid excessive friction or snagging on rough surfaces. Clean gently with a damp cloth.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces.

The sole grip may vary by surface. Ensure the soles are clean. For persistent issues on specific surfaces, consider consulting a shoe repair specialist for potential sole treatments.
