FAQs

Are the New Balance 237 trainers suitable for running?

The 237 trainers are primarily designed as lifestyle or casual shoes, inspired by running shoe aesthetics. They offer comfort for everyday wear but are not recommended for serious athletic running or training due to their construction and cushioning.

How do I clean the suede and mesh upper?

For suede, use a suede brush and specialized suede cleaner. For mesh, a soft brush with mild soap and cool water works well. Always allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What is the main benefit of the EVA midsole?

The EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate) midsole provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption, contributing to the overall comfort of the trainers for extended wear.

Are these trainers available in other colors?

This guide focuses on the Grey/White Suede variant. Availability of other colors may vary by retailer and season.

What does the '237' in the product name signify?

The '237' refers to the specific model series from New Balance, which draws inspiration from traditional running shoe designs of the 1970s.

Can I wear these trainers in the rain?

While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the suede material.

What type of socks are best with these trainers?

Standard athletic or casual socks work well. If the fit feels slightly loose, thicker socks can provide a snugger feel. Ensure socks are dry when wearing to protect the suede.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Consider wearing appropriate socks for a snugger fit. If consistently uncomfortable, check if the correct size was ordered.

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner following the product instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

The herringbone outsole provides good grip, but performance on very wet or slippery surfaces may be limited. Ensure the outsole is free from debris that could impede traction.

Color transfer from suede to socks

This can occasionally happen with new suede items. It may lessen with wear. Ensure the suede is properly treated and dry before wearing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stylish blend of retro and modern design elements.
  • Comfortable for everyday wear due to EVA midsole and mixed upper materials.
  • Durable construction with a herringbone outsole for good traction.
  • Versatile trainers suitable for casual outfits.
  • Signature New Balance branding provides a recognizable aesthetic.

Cons

  • Suede material requires careful cleaning and maintenance.
  • May not be suitable for intense athletic performance, intended more for casual use.
  • Exposed foam on the tongue might be a durability concern for some users.
  • The unique design elements might not appeal to those preferring minimalist footwear.
  • Can be prone to scuffs due to the lighter color palette.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The New Balance 237 trainers require no setup; they are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult use and are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing styles, including jeans, shorts, joggers, and casual dresses. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions.

Care:

  • Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Avoid using water excessively, as it can damage suede.
  • Cleaning Mesh: Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water to clean the mesh areas. Blot dry with a clean towel.
  • Outsole: Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can cause materials to shrink or warp. Stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape while drying.
