FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they utilize performance-heritage cushioning, they are primarily designed for casual wear and walking rather than high-intensity long-distance running.

How do I determine my size in this unisex model?

These trainers use standard adult sizing. Refer to your previous New Balance fit or use a conversion chart if moving between male and female specific size ranges.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can damage the leather overlays and the adhesive integrity of the sole unit.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a combination of breathable open-pore mesh and durable synthetic/leather overlays.

Does the heel provide extra support?

Yes, the inclusion of ABZORB SBS pods at the heel specifically targets shock absorption and provides enhanced rear-foot stability.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt trapped in the mesh upper

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently dislodge particles and wipe with a slightly damp cloth.

Midsole foam loses its 'bounce'

Ensure the shoes are rotated with another pair to allow the cushioning materials to decompress between uses.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers maintain their look and performance, begin by ensuring a proper fit; as a unisex model, consider the sizing conversion if you are transitioning between gendered sizing scales. Since these shoes feature leather and polyester elements, it is recommended to use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the mesh and overlay sections regularly. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner for the overlays and a damp cloth for the midsole. Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources to prevent the materials from warping or degrading over time.
