FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While the 1300 has roots in running shoe design, they are best suited for casual wear, walking, and everyday comfort rather than high-impact athletic activities.

How do I clean the suede on these trainers?

Use a suede brush for general cleaning. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always test any cleaner on a small, hidden area first and avoid soaking the suede.

What is the difference between the 'Made in USA' series and other New Balance lines?

The 'Made in USA' designation signifies products manufactured in New Balance's U.S. factories, often reflecting a higher standard of craftsmanship and premium materials.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, mesh, and sole construction.

What kind of socks should I wear with these?

Any comfortable socks will work. For optimal comfort and fit, consider athletic or casual socks made from breathable materials.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Generally, New Balance trainers are known to fit true to size. However, individual fit can vary. It's recommended to try them on if possible or consult New Balance's sizing guide.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Gently brush with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions. Test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces are worn or dirty

Replace laces with new ones. You can typically use standard shoelaces of a similar length.

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you have the correct size. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. Consider wearing thicker socks if needed.
