FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 373 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and walking. They offer comfort and style but lack the specific cushioning and support features required for running or high-impact sports.

How do I clean the trainers?

To clean, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water for stains. Gently scrub with a soft brush and wipe clean. Always air dry away from heat.

What is the material of the trainers?

The description mentions a suede material for some variants, and generally, they are constructed with a combination of synthetic and textile materials for durability and comfort.

Can I wear these with orthopedic insoles?

Yes, the trainers should accommodate most standard-width orthopedic insoles if the original insole is removable. Check for ample space once the original insole is out.

What does the ribbed outsole do?

The ribbed outsole is designed to provide enhanced traction and grip on various surfaces, contributing to stability during everyday walking.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or bag, to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and try them on again. If still uncomfortable, consider if the size is correct or if a break-in period is needed. Ensure socks are not too thick.

Slight squeaking noise

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a short period to see if it subsides. Ensure the insoles are properly seated.

Outsole seems slippery on certain surfaces

The ribbed outsole provides grip, but performance can vary on extremely smooth or wet surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris that could affect traction.
