FAQs

Are these New Balance 373 trainers suitable for running?

While the New Balance 373 trainers are inspired by classic running shoes, they are primarily designed for casual wear and light, everyday activities. They offer comfort for walking and light use but are not optimized for intense or performance-focused running.

How do I determine the correct size?

The New Balance 373 trainers typically run true to size. It's recommended to order your usual UK shoe size. If you are unsure, you can refer to New Balance's official sizing chart for precise measurements.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The suede and mesh upper provides some protection, but these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet conditions may damage the materials and reduce comfort. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in very wet weather or use a protective spray for suede.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper of the New Balance 373V2 trainers is constructed from a blend of synthetic suede and mesh, offering a balance of durability, style, and breathability.

How do I maintain the navy blue color?

To maintain the deep navy blue color, avoid harsh cleaning chemicals and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading. Use cleaning products specifically designed for colored suede and mesh, and clean regularly to prevent dirt buildup.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the cushioned insoles in the New Balance 373V2 trainers are generally removable, allowing for replacement with custom orthotics or other supportive inserts if desired.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove loose dirt and restore the texture. For tougher stains, apply a suede-specific cleaner as directed.

Shoes feel less supportive over time

Consider replacing the existing insoles with new, supportive aftermarket insoles to revitalize cushioning and arch support.

Odor develops inside the shoes

Allow shoes to air out after each wear. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not in use to absorb moisture and neutralize odors.

Poor grip on certain surfaces

Regularly clean the rubber outsole to prevent dirt and debris buildup that can reduce traction. Ensure the outsole tread is not excessively worn.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning the Suede: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For stains, apply a suede cleaner with a clean cloth, following product instructions carefully. Avoid excessive water.
  2. Cleaning the Mesh: For mesh areas, use a mild soap solution (like dish soap diluted in water) and a soft brush or cloth to gently scrub away dirt. Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  3. Cleaning the Outsole: The rubber outsole can be cleaned with warm water, soap, and a brush to remove mud and grime, which also helps maintain traction.
  4. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage materials.
  5. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
