New Balance 550 - White - Grey - UK 5

Most users find that the 550 fits true to size, though the leather construction may feel slightly snug initially before softening.

No, you should never machine wash leather trainers as the agitation and water can damage the material and adhesives.

Wipe with a damp cloth and use a dedicated leather sneaker cleaner; always dry naturally away from direct heat.

While the design is inspired by 90s basketball shoes, they are intended as lifestyle trainers for casual use, not for active court sports.

The 550 provides a standard flat-bottomed feel typical of heritage court shoes, which can accommodate most users comfortably for daily wear.

Leather is naturally less breathable than mesh, but the 550 provides sufficient comfort for casual, all-day wear.

Use a specialized leather cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, followed by a leather conditioner.

Use shoe trees when not in use to help the leather maintain its shape.

Use a magic eraser or a stiff-bristled brush with soapy water to scrub the rubber edges carefully.
