FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 373 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer cushioning for walking, they are not specialized for high-impact athletic activities like running.
What materials are the trainers made of?
The upper is made of 59% leather, 32% textile, and 9% other materials. The lining and cushioning are 100% textile, and the sole is composed of 60% EVA and 40% rubber.
How should I clean the leather parts of the trainers?
Clean the leather upper with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized leather cleaner sparingly and test on a small area first. Avoid machine washing.
Do these trainers come in men's sizes?
This specific product description and variant are for women's sizes. New Balance offers various models that may be available in men's sizing.
What is the main benefit of the 373 series?
The 373 series aims to combine New Balance's successful design elements into a versatile trainer that offers both style and everyday comfort for casual wear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Leather can be affected by excessive moisture. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to dry them properly if they get wet.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the available size chart and choose your UK women's size. The product details list available sizes, and the lace-up fastening allows for some adjustment.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try wearing them with thinner socks. If the issue persists after break-in, consider if the size is appropriate or if insoles are needed.
Discoloration on leather upper
Clean gently with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a dedicated leather cleaner and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Sole feels slippery
Ensure the sole is clean and free from mud or debris. The rubber compound provides grip, but excessive wear may reduce its effectiveness over time.
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the laces are not worn out. You may need to re-lace the shoes using a different lacing technique or replace the laces if they are frayed.
