New Balance 880 - Black - UK 10

The New Balance Fresh Foam Walking 880 v7 is specifically designed as a walking shoe, providing optimal comfort and support for walking activities. While you *can* run short distances in them, they are not engineered for the higher impact and specific biomechanics of sustained running or high-performance athletic training.

For basic cleaning, use a suede brush to remove dirt. For tougher marks, a specialized suede cleaner and eraser can be used. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first. Allow them to air dry completely after cleaning.

Yes, the Fresh Foam Walking 880 v7 is designed with 'extra support' to enhance comfort and stability during walking, which includes a supportive footbed and midsole structure to aid in arch support. Individual arch needs may vary, but they generally offer good supportive cushioning.

Ensure laces are not overtightened. Allow a break-in period of a few days. If discomfort persists, consider checking your size or trying different lacing techniques.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a suede cleaner according to product instructions. Regularly apply a suede protector to prevent future staining.

While suede is not as breathable as mesh, ensure you're wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. Allow shoes to air out between uses. If issue persists, consider alternatives for very hot climates.

Check if the insoles are properly seated or if they are damp. Sometimes, talcum powder under the insole can help reduce friction. If the squeak is from the outsole, it may be due to worn tread or a material interaction with the walking surface.
