Troubleshooting

Sizing seems incorrect

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for UK adult sizes and compare with your foot measurements. Consider the '550' series may have a specific fit.

Leather creasing excessively

Compatibility: The New Balance 550 trainers are designed for general footwear use and are compatible with standard casual and athletic apparel.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains on leather, use a specialized leather cleaner.

  4. Soles: Periodically check the rubber soles for any embedded debris and clean gently.
