Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the New Balance 2010 features premium suede, it is important to treat them with a protective water-repellent spray before their first wear to prevent staining. When cleaning, avoid fully submerging the shoes in water; instead, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a dedicated suede cleaner in small, circular motions and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can cause the material to stiffen or shrink. To maintain the shape, store them in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if possible.
