The shoe features a combination of breathable mesh for the base and dusty-yellow nubuck leather for overlays.

What does ABZORB cushioning do?

Is this shoe suitable for running?

While comfortable for everyday wear, the New Balance 530 Prosperity Be The Prize is primarily designed as a lifestyle sneaker and is not optimized for high-performance running.

How should I clean the nubuck leather parts?

Use a suede brush or a suede eraser to gently clean nubuck leather. Avoid water and use specialized suede cleaners if necessary.

What is the significance of the collaboration?

This version is part of a collaboration with luxury streetwear designer Salehe Bembury, lending a unique design vision and premium feel to the classic 530 silhouette.

What colors are featured in this sneaker?

The shoe prominently features celery green and dusty yellow, with accents of red and a purple outsole, creating a bold and eye-catching color scheme.

Does the shoe have a pull tab?

Troubleshooting

Color transfer from purple outsole

Ensure the outsole is clean and dry before wear. If significant transfer occurs, try cleaning the outsole with a damp cloth. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when wet.

Nubuck leather scuffing

Use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede brush to gently lift scuffs and restore the nap of the leather. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe cleaner.

Discomfort after long wear

Ensure the correct size is being worn. The ABZORB cushioning provides comfort, but break-in periods may vary. If discomfort persists, check for pressure points or consider using alternative insoles.
