FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
No, the New Balance 373 Trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-impact activities like running or intensive sports. They offer a lifestyle aesthetic and general walking comfort.
How do I clean my New Balance 373 Trainers?
To clean your trainers, `spot clean with a damp cloth`. For the suede parts, a specific suede brush can be used. Crucially, `avoid submerging in water` and do not machine wash, as this can damage the materials.
What materials are the trainers made from?
These trainers feature a combination of `suede` and `mesh` for the upper, providing both durability and breathability, along with a `ribbed outsole` for traction.
Are these trainers true to size?
The New Balance 373 trainers come in a `regular fit`, which generally means they align with standard sizing. We recommend checking specific size guides if you are unsure, but most users find them true to their usual UK size.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
Due to the `suede` and `mesh` construction, these trainers are not fully waterproof. While light moisture might be fine, prolonged exposure to wet conditions, especially submerging in water, should be avoided to prevent damage. Consider a protective spray for light rain.
What is a `stiffened heel counter`?
A `stiffened heel counter` is a reinforced section at the back of the shoe that helps to cup and support your heel. This feature enhances stability and prevents your foot from slipping within the shoe during movement, contributing to overall comfort.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
These trainers may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially. The `suede` and `mesh` materials will gradually conform to your foot shape for optimal comfort.
Stains or dirt visible on the suede/mesh upper
Follow the care instructions carefully: `Spot clean with a damp cloth`. For stubborn suede stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner or brush gently. Avoid rubbing too hard, which can damage the material.
Loss of traction on certain surfaces
While the `ribbed outsole` provides good general traction, no shoe offers universal grip. Exercise caution on very wet, oily, or icy surfaces. Regularly clean the outsole to ensure no debris is impacting its grip.
Trainers develop an odor
Allow your trainers to air out after each wear. You can use shoe deodorizers or place baking soda in socks inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure they are fully dry before storage.

Care
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede and mesh trainers:
- Cleaning: `Spot clean with a damp cloth`. Gently wipe away dirt and stains. Use a soft brush for suede areas if needed, always brushing in the direction of the nap.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. `Avoid submerging in water` and do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials.
- Protection: Consider using a suede and fabric protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially before initial wear.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent fading and material degradation.
