Product Information

Full details

The New Balance Numeric 340 is a versatile, low-profile skate shoe designed for skaters and casual wearers seeking a blend of durability and board feel. It features a robust suede construction with strategic reinforcements, making it an excellent choice for daily skate sessions or urban commuting; however, users should note that the low-profile design provides less ankle support than high-top alternatives.

FAQs

Is the New Balance Numeric 340 good for walking?

Yes, the low-profile design and cushioned PU heel wedge make it a comfortable option for casual walking and daily use.

Are these shoes unisex?

Yes, the New Balance Numeric 340 is designed as a unisex trainer suitable for all genders.

How do I clean the white sections of the shoe?

Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water for the non-suede sections, and a suede cleaner for the black suede panels.

Will the suede stretch over time?

Suede is a natural material and will experience a small amount of natural stretching as it conforms to your foot shape after being broken in.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics or higher-support insoles as needed.

Is this shoe suitable for wet weather?

While the shoe is durable, it is primarily made of suede, which is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to maintain the material quality.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt or scuffs on the suede

Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft suede brush to gently lift debris without damaging the nap of the material.

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Ensure the laces are tensioned properly across the midfoot and check that your current socks provide enough friction; replacing the factory insole with a performance-fit version may also help.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent board feel due to the low-profile vulcanized design
  • Reinforced stress points increase overall shoe longevity
  • Breathable mesh panels prevent overheating
  • Clean aesthetic suitable for both skating and casual styling

Cons

  • Low-top silhouette lacks extended ankle coverage
  • Suede material requires specific care to prevent water staining
  • Requires a brief break-in period for the vulcanized sole

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance Numeric 340s last, it is recommended to apply a suede-specific water repellent spray before initial use. For cleaning, avoid submerging the shoes in water; instead, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or mud from the suede surface. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry at room temperature away from direct heat sources, which can cause the material to warp or crack. Because these are standard trainers, they are compatible with most aftermarket insoles if you require additional arch support. Ensure you check the sizing guide carefully, as suede material may exhibit slight natural give over the first few weeks of consistent use.
