FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The WRPD Runner is primarily a lifestyle trainer designed for comfort and daily wear rather than technical athletic performance.

How should I store these trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the color vibrancy and material quality.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the construction and cushioning. Stick to hand cleaning with a soft cloth and mild detergent.

Does the size 11.5 fit true to size?

Yes, the New Balance WRPD Runner generally aligns with standard UK sizing expectations for adult footwear.

Can I use these for gym training?

They are suitable for casual gym use and light walking, but they are not specialized performance shoes for heavy lifting or high-impact training.

How do I remove odors from the shoes?

Remove the insoles and allow them to air out. You can also use an antimicrobial shoe spray designed for trainers.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt on suede or fabric upper

Use a specialized dry cleaning brush to gently lift debris before using a damp cloth with mild soap.

Discomfort or pinching during initial wear

Ensure the laces are adjusted to provide an even pressure distribution across the midfoot; the material will naturally relax with use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers remain in top condition, follow these simple maintenance guidelines. For setup, ensure you choose your correct UK size; the WRPD Runner features a standard fit. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or mud. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft cloth, allowing the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the structural integrity and cushioning materials of the trainer.
