FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The New Balance 550 typically features a standard fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying them on with your preferred sock thickness.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to avoid the washing machine as it can damage the materials and adhesive components of the shoe.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
Low-cut or crew-length cotton socks are generally recommended for optimal comfort and to match the style of the trainer.
Is the material waterproof?
The trainers are not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles to protect the integrity of the materials.
Do I need to break these in?
While the shoes are comfortable out of the box, they may feel more natural after a few days of regular wear as the materials soften to your foot.
Troubleshooting
Laces coming untied frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot or checking that the lace material is pulled tight through each eyelet.
Creasing at the toe box
This is a normal characteristic of leather-based trainers; using a shoe tree when not in use can help maintain the shape.
Minor scuffs on the cream panels
Use a specialized sneaker eraser or a soft cloth with a tiny amount of leather cleaner to gently buff away the scuff.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 550 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit Check: Ensure the laces are tightened to your preference before your first wear to allow the shoe to mold comfortably to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush or a dry cloth to remove surface dust. For minor stains on the upper material, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid soaking the shoe or using harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration of the beige and cream materials.
- Maintenance: Allow the shoes to air out after a long day of wear to prevent moisture buildup inside the lining.
