New Balance 480 Trainers - Red - Size: 9

The New Balance 480 Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning and support for walking, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the necessary features for intense athletic training.

It's recommended to try them on with the type of socks you typically wear. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box and that the heel doesn't slip. Refer to New Balance's sizing guide for accurate measurements if purchasing online.

The upper is primarily made of tough leather with suede overlays, offering durability and a classic look.

Clean your trainers as needed, especially after exposure to dirt or moisture. Regular spot cleaning and proper storage will help maintain their condition.

No, it is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the leather, suede, and internal cushioning components. Hand wash or spot clean them as per the care instructions.

'Crimson' refers to the main red color of the trainers, while 'Sea Salt' refers to the secondary off-white or cream color accents.

The trainers weigh approximately 428 grams (15.1 oz), making them relatively lightweight for everyday use.

This is common with leather shoes. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Consider using thicker socks during the break-in period.

This can sometimes occur with new soles. Ensure there is no debris trapped between the sole and the insole. If the squeaking persists, it may resolve with further wear.

Use a specialized leather or suede cleaner appropriate for the material. Test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first. Protect with a suitable waterproofing spray for future use.
