FAQs

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is made from a combination of 58% suede, 28% textile, and 14% other materials.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for casual wear and light walking, not for high-impact running. They feature an EVA midsole for comfort but lack the specialized support and cushioning of dedicated running shoes.

How should I clean the suede parts?

Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and restore the nap. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

What does EVA midsole technology mean for comfort?

EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) is a foam material used in the midsole that provides lightweight cushioning and shock absorption, contributing to overall comfort during wear.

Can I put these trainers in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede components. Hand washing or spot cleaning with a damp cloth is the preferred method for cleaning.

What is the difference between the New Balance 373 collection and other models?

The 373 collection typically features a classic, retro-inspired silhouette with a focus on everyday comfort and versatile styling, often utilizing a mix of suede and textile materials.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the size guide provided by New Balance. Ensure your foot measurements are accurate, as listed sizes (e.g., UK 4.5) correspond to specific foot lengths.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not tight fit. Wear with appropriate socks. Break them in gradually with short periods of wear.

Suede becoming discolored or dirty

Use a suede brush regularly to maintain the nap. Treat stains promptly with a suede cleaner. Protect with a suede protector spray if desired.

Slipping on smooth surfaces

While the rubber outsole offers grip, very smooth or wet surfaces can be challenging. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. Consider the limitations of the tread pattern on extremely slick surfaces.
