FAQs

How do I clean the nylon upper?

Use a soft brush or cloth with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid excessive water and allow to air dry.

How should I care for the suede overlays?

Use a suede brush and cleaner. Apply a suede protectant spray for added protection.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 471 is designed for everyday wear and light activities. It is not specifically designed for running, and a dedicated running shoe is recommended for that purpose.

What if my shoes get wet?

Allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Do not use a hairdryer. If the shoes are heavily soaked, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture.

What is the warranty on these shoes?

Warranty information can vary. Check with the retailer or New Balance for warranty details.

Can I replace the laces?

Yes, the laces can be replaced. Ensure the replacement laces are of the appropriate length.

Where are the shoes manufactured?

Manufacturing locations may vary. Check the product label for details.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Try loosening the laces or consider going up a half size. If the issue persists, the shoe may not be the correct fit.

Suede appears stained or dirty.

Use a suede cleaner and brush to gently remove stains. Protect the suede with a protectant spray to prevent future stains.

The sole is wearing down too quickly.

Avoid wearing the shoes on rough surfaces. Regular wear and tear will cause the sole to wear down over time. Consider professional sole repair if needed.
