FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for running?

The New Balance CT302 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker. While comfortable for walking and light activity, they are not engineered for high-impact running or athletic performance.

How do I clean the pink material?

Gently wipe the pink upper with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water to protect the color and material.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of durable rubber, providing good traction and longevity for everyday wear.

Can I wear these with athletic socks?

Yes, you can wear them with athletic socks. However, with new pink shoes, it's advisable to wear darker or similarly colored socks initially to avoid any potential color transfer.

What does the 'CT' in CT302 stand for?

The 'CT' designation in New Balance models often relates to their heritage in tennis footwear, suggesting a blend of court-inspired style and modern design.

How does the UK 6.5 size fit compared to other brands?

Sizing can vary between brands. It is recommended to check New Balance's official size guide or try them on if possible to ensure the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and try to adjust them for a more comfortable fit. If persistent, consider if the size is correct for your foot.

Slight color transfer

This can occasionally happen with new dyed materials. Ensure socks are of a similar color or a colorfast type. Wipe down the interior with a dry cloth.

Squeaking sound

A squeak can sometimes come from friction within the shoe or the sole. Try adding a small amount of powder (like talcum powder) under the insole or check if the laces are too tight.
