FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 373 trainers are designed for everyday casual wear and comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities like running, as they lack the specialized support and cushioning required for such pursuits.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it with the New Balance sizing chart available on their official website. The sizing provided (e.g., UK 13) refers to standard UK adult foot sizing.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the rubber outsole offers some traction, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent damage to the suede material.
What is the main benefit of the EVA foam?
EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) foam is used in the midsole and heel to provide lightweight cushioning. This helps to absorb impact during walking and provides enhanced comfort throughout the day.
How often should I clean my trainers?
The frequency of cleaning depends on usage. For daily wear, a quick brush of the suede and wiping down the outsole as needed is recommended. Deeper cleaning should be done when the shoes appear visibly dirty or stained.
What is the difference between the 373 and other New Balance series?
The 373 series is known for its classic retro-inspired design and everyday comfort, often utilizing suede and mesh. Other series may focus on different aspects like performance running, specific sports, or more modern aesthetics and materials.
Troubleshooting
Squeaking noise during wear
This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and midsole. Try removing the insole, dusting the area with talcum powder, and replacing the insole. Ensure laces are not tied too tightly.
Discomfort on the sides of the feet
The trainers may need a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the laces are adjusted properly for a comfortable fit.
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a suede cleaner or use a lightly damp cloth followed by air drying.
