FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

No, the New Balance 373 trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for running or intense athletic activities.

How should I clean the white trainers?

Gently clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.

What is the purpose of the stiffened heel counter?

The stiffened heel counter provides support and helps maintain the shoe's structure and your foot's stability during wear.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the ribbed sole offers some traction, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions.

What other colours are available?

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If still tight, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe needs a brief breaking-in period.

Soles feel slippery

The ribbed sole is designed for grip, but may perform differently on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean from debris.

Discoloration on white material

Spot clean gently with a mild soap and water solution. For persistent stains, consult specialized shoe cleaning guides for white trainers.

Care Instructions:

  2. Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause warping or material degradation.
