FAQs
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the trainers feature suede and mesh components which are not waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain.
Can I use these for intense running?
The 2010 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for daily use rather than a performance running shoe.
How do I clean the mesh portion?
Use a cloth dampened with mild soapy water to gently wipe the mesh, taking care not to saturate the surrounding suede.
What is the primary benefit of the Stability Web?
It provides arch support and helps stabilize the foot, reducing the risk of strain during prolonged activity.
Is the sizing consistent with other New Balance models?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent across series, but it is always recommended to refer to your specific size measurements.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the suede material
Use a dry suede eraser or soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt particles without damaging the nap.
Feeling discomfort in the arch area
Ensure the laces are tied with proper tension and consider wearing thin moisture-wicking socks to improve the internal fit.
Creasing near the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the upper maintain its shape and minimize deep-set creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 2010 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear the shoes for short intervals indoors before committing to a full day of walking to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Do not submerge the shoes in water. Use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede cleaner and apply it sparingly.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the black finish over time.
- Weather Protection: Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray compatible with suede to guard against light rain and spills.
