Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance trainers maintain their shape and support, follow these care guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the shoes are worn with your preferred thickness of athletic socks to test for proper arch and heel alignment.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and cold water solution; avoid machine washing or machine drying as this can damage the structural adhesives.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause materials to stiffen or shrink.
- Rotation: If worn daily, rotate with another pair of shoes to allow the cushioning foam to recover its shape, extending the overall life of the sneaker.
