FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, the cushioned midsole makes them very comfortable for extended periods of walking and daily activities.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash suede shoes, as the water and agitation can damage the material and structure of the trainer.
Are they true to size?
New Balance Numeric 430s generally fit true to size. If you prefer a looser fit or use thick socks, consider sizing up by a half size.
Are these strictly for skating?
While designed for performance skating, their clean aesthetic and comfort make them popular as general-purpose casual footwear.
How do I protect the suede from rain?
Apply a high-quality, suede-specific water and stain repellent spray regularly to create a moisture-resistant barrier.
Troubleshooting
Suede becoming matted or losing texture
Use a soft-bristle suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material in a circular motion.
Accumulated dirt on the white soles
Use a mild detergent mixed with water and a soft brush to gently scrub the white rubber sidewalls, then wipe dry with a clean cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance Numeric 430 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Like most high-quality suede trainers, they may feel slightly firm initially. Wear them for short durations to allow the materials to contour to your feet.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For deeper stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a soft cloth; avoid soaking the suede, as it can damage the texture.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant blue colour from fading.
- Protection: Consider applying a suede-safe water repellent spray before your first wear to provide a protective barrier against minor spills and dirt.
