FAQs
Are these New Balance WL373 trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed for casual wear, light activities, and general comfort. While suitable for light walking or short, low-impact exercise, they are not specifically engineered for intense or long-distance running.
How do I ensure I've ordered the correct UK size?
Always refer to the UK size when ordering. When you receive the shoes, try them on to confirm the fit. Be aware that the label on the shoe or box might display a US or Euro size which may appear different from the UK size you selected.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials, especially the suede and cushioning. It's best to spot clean by hand as detailed in the care instructions.
What materials are used in the outsole?
The outsole of the New Balance WL373 trainers is made from durable rubber, providing reliable traction and longevity for everyday use.
Are these trainers water-resistant?
The product description does not specify water resistance. Given the suede and mesh upper, it's best to avoid heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials and prolong their life.
What is the primary benefit of the cushioned midsole?
The signature cushioned midsole is designed to provide exceptional comfort and shock absorption, reducing impact on your feet and joints during daily activities and extended wear, enhancing overall comfort.
Troubleshooting
My trainers feel too tight or too loose.
First, re-adjust the laces, ensuring they are evenly tightened from the toes upwards. If the issue persists, double-check the UK size against your usual shoe size, as packaging may show different regional sizes.
The suede/mesh upper is getting dirty or stained.
Gently brush off dry dirt with a soft shoe brush. For stains, use a specialist suede and textile cleaner or a very mild soap solution on a damp cloth, gently dabbing the affected area. Avoid scrubbing or soaking the trainers.
My feet feel hot or sweaty after wearing the trainers.
While the mesh provides breathability, ensure you are wearing appropriate socks (e.g., moisture-wicking materials). Allow trainers to air out after each wear to prevent moisture buildup.
The laces keep coming undone during wear.
Ensure you are tying a firm knot. For added security, try tying a double knot. You may also consider replacing the laces with a different material if this is a persistent problem.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Using your New Balance WL373 trainers is straightforward:
- Lace Up: Insert your feet and thread the laces through all eyelets.
- Adjust for Fit: Pull the laces firmly but comfortably to ensure a secure fit around your foot. Start from the toes and work your way up.
- Tie: Fasten your laces with a knot. A double knot can provide extra security, especially if you'll be active.
Ensure a snug fit to prevent your foot from sliding, which can lead to discomfort or rubbing.
Compatibility
These trainers are highly versatile:
- Outfit Matching: The Grey colour allows them to complement a wide array of casual and active wear, including jeans, athletic shorts, skirts, and casual dresses.
- Activity Suitability: Perfect for daily walking, casual social events, light gym sessions, and travel. They are not designed for high-performance sports, intense running, or trail running.
Care
Proper care will extend the life of your New Balance WL373 trainers:
- Cleaning the Upper: For the suede and mesh upper, gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a specialist suede cleaner or a mild soap solution with a damp cloth, gently dabbing the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Outsole Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe the rubber outsole clean.
- Drying: Always allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Sizing Note: Remember to try your footwear on before returning. The shoe box or label might show a US/Euro size that differs from the UK size you ordered. Confirm the fit, not just the labelled size.
