FAQs

What material are the New Balance 550 trainers made of?

These trainers feature a premium leather upper, offering both durability and a classic look.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic activities?

The New Balance 550 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer support, they are not intended for high-impact athletic performance.

How should I clean my leather trainers?

Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a leather-specific cleaner, and always allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat.

Do these trainers come in other colours?

This specific model is the 'White Vintage Indigo' with a white and blue colour scheme. Other colourways may be available in the New Balance 550 series.

What is the typical fit of New Balance 550s?

The fit can vary slightly, but they are generally considered to have a standard width. It's recommended to check sizing guides and consider trying them on if possible.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended. Using a waterproof spray designed for leather can help provide additional protection.

What does 'Vintage Indigo' refer to?

This refers to the specific colourway of the trainers, indicating a blend of white with shades of blue that evoke a vintage aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Try wearing thinner socks or consider a different size. For minor tightness, wearing them for short periods may help them stretch slightly.

Scuff marks on leather

Use a leather eraser or a specialized leather cleaner to gently remove scuff marks. For persistent marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.

Discolouration from cleaning

Ensure you are using appropriate cleaners for leather and have tested them on a small, hidden area first. Always follow product instructions carefully.

Soles becoming detached

This indicates a more significant issue. It is recommended to take the shoes to a cobbler for repair or consider replacement if the damage is extensive.

  2. Suede/Nubuck (if applicable): Use a suede brush to remove dirt and maintain texture. Avoid water on suede or nubuck sections.
