Full details
The New Balance 370 trainers are ideal for adults seeking a blend of vintage '70s aesthetics and modern comfort for casual daily wear. These sneakers offer a distinct style boost through their chunky wedge sole and elevated heel design, making them a versatile choice for off-duty days.

FAQs
Do New Balance 370 trainers run true to size?
No, they run small. It is recommended to order a half or full size larger than your standard size.
Are these shoes suitable for running?
These are lifestyle trainers inspired by the '70s and are intended for casual daily wear, not high-performance running.
What materials are used in the upper?
The upper is crafted from a combination of breathable mesh with suede accents.
How do I clean the suede portions?
Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt; avoid using water directly on the suede.
Is the heel elevated?
Yes, the model is built on an elevated wedge sole for a slight lift and added style.
Can I replace the insole?
While the shoe includes a standard fabric lining, you can generally replace the insole with an orthotic if necessary, provided it fits the internal volume of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight at the toes
This is common as the 370 series runs small. Consider using thinner socks or exchanging for a half-size larger.
Suede appears dull or dirty
Gently use a dry suede cleaning brush to lift dirt and restore the nap of the material.
Laces coming undone frequently
The lace-up closure is designed for a secure fit; ensure you use a double knot if you have a high instep.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the New Balance 370 trainers run small, always verify your size against the recommendation of ordering a half or full size up before finalizing your choice. For care, it is best to clean the suede accents with a specialized suede brush to maintain texture. The mesh sections can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid machine washing to prevent structural damage to the wedge sole and adhesive. Keep the shoes away from extreme heat sources to ensure the longevity of the materials.
