FAQs

Are the New Balance XC-72 trainers suitable for running?

The XC-72 trainers are primarily designed for style and comfort for everyday wear. While they offer good grip and support for casual activities, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the necessary cushioning or support for intense running.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart available on their official website or consult the size guide provided by the retailer. It is recommended to measure your foot length and compare it with the chart. Many retailers also offer specific advice for this model.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

It is not recommended to machine wash the New Balance XC-72 trainers, especially those with leather or suede components. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand cleaning is the preferred method.

What materials are the XC-72 trainers made of?

The materials can vary slightly by specific colorway and edition. Generally, they feature a combination of leather, suede, and synthetic textiles for the upper, with a rubber outsole for traction.

How do I clean the white leather parts?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution or a dedicated leather cleaner. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

Yes, the New Balance XC-72 series is available in a variety of colorways, including blue, brown, and other combinations, in addition to the white variant.

Is the sizing unisex?

Yes, the XC-72 model is designed as a unisex trainer, meaning it is intended for both men and women. Ensure you consult a sizing chart that accounts for unisex sizing conventions.

Troubleshooting

Unusual noise when walking

This could be due to the tongue rubbing against the inside of the shoe or a loose component. Ensure laces are tied properly and check for any debris inside the shoe.

Discomfort after wearing

Ensure you have the correct size and fit. Try wearing them with different types of socks. Allow a break-in period if the shoes are new.

White color getting dirty quickly

Regularly clean the trainers using a damp cloth and appropriate shoe cleaner. Consider applying a protective spray designed for white footwear.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For the white leather variants, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and marks. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the material. For suede or mesh components, use a specialized cleaner designed for those materials.
  • Drying: If the trainers become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can alter their shape and damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
  • Maintenance: Regularly check the soles for wear and tear. Consider using a waterproofing spray, especially for leather and suede, to protect against stains and moisture.
