FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 480 trainers are designed for casual wear and offer comfort for everyday activities. They are not specialized running shoes and may lack the advanced cushioning and support required for intense athletic training.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a soft suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, apply a specialized suede cleaner sparingly with a clean cloth or brush, following the product's instructions. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid getting the suede wet.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

It is not recommended to wear suede trainers in wet weather as moisture can damage the material, cause staining, and affect the texture. Consider using a suede protector spray to add some water resistance, but avoid prolonged exposure to rain or puddles.

What is the primary material of these trainers?

The primary material for this specific variant is suede, with a secondary color detail in white.

What is the intended gender and age group for these trainers?

These trainers are designed for adult males.

How do I determine my correct shoe size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot length. Ensure you are measuring from the heel to the tip of your longest toe. Compare this measurement to the chart to find your corresponding UK size.

What other color and material options are available for the 480 series?

The 480 series is available in various color families, including beige and brown, and materials such as suede and leather. There are also different model variations like the 480L.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede cleaner and a suede brush. Follow the cleaner's instructions, typically involving gentle brushing and spot treatment. For stubborn stains, professional cleaning may be necessary.

Shoes feel too tight.

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If slightly tight, wearing them with thinner socks or allowing a brief break-in period may help. If significantly too small, consider a larger size.

Sole is dirty.

Wipe the soles with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid getting the suede upper excessively wet.

Color transfer from suede to socks.

This can occasionally happen with darker suede. It is recommended to wear darker socks, especially during the initial wear, or use a suede protector spray to help seal the color.
