Troubleshooting

Trainers feel too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size 11. If comfort issues persist, consider trying on half sizes or different New Balance models, as fit can vary slightly.

Slight squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes occur with new footwear due to new materials settling. Try breaking them in by wearing them for short periods. If it persists, check if the insole is properly seated or try removing and reinserting it.

Colors appear dull or dirty

Follow the spot cleaning instructions using a damp cloth and mild soap. Regular cleaning prevents dirt buildup and helps maintain the vibrant silver metallic and blue agate colors. For persistent dirt, a specialized shoe cleaner may be needed.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure you are tying the laces securely. Consider using a double knot for added security. Over time, laces can stretch, and replacement may be necessary if they continue to loosen.

Care

Proper care helps maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers.

  1. Spot Cleaning: For general dirt and scuffs, use a soft brush or a clean, damp cloth with mild soap. Gently rub the affected areas.
  2. Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can damage materials.
  3. Protection: Consider using a shoe protector spray designed for mixed-material trainers to guard against water and stains, particularly on lighter colored sections.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing with tissue paper can help maintain their shape.
  5. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, bleach, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the shoe's materials and color.
