FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the New Balance 57/40 generally follows standard UK sizing conventions.

Can I use these for intense sports?

While supportive for daily use, these are lifestyle trainers and are not intended for high-intensity athletic performance or specialized gym training.

How do I maintain the leather material?

Keep the leather clean and hydrated with leather-safe products, and avoid submerging the shoes in water.

Is this a unisex model?

While specific sizing is labeled, the 57/40 design is widely considered suitable for all genders depending on the preferred fit.

Does the Mindful Grey colourway show dirt easily?

As with most grey footwear, light dust may be visible, but the leather material is relatively easy to wipe down compared to suede or mesh.

Troubleshooting

The leather feels too stiff upon first wear.

This is common with leather footwear. Wear them for short periods around the house to help the material flex and conform to your foot.

Scuffs appearing on the grey leather surface.

Use a specialized leather conditioner and a soft buffing cloth to gently polish out minor surface scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 57/40 trainers remain in excellent condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: Wear them for short durations during the first week to allow the leather to soften naturally.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a dedicated leather cleaner or a damp cloth for deeper stains. Avoid machine washing, as this can degrade the leather.
  3. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading.
  4. Compatibility: These trainers fit standard adult sizing. It is recommended to use the same UK size you typically select for other New Balance athletic models.
