New Balance Trainers - 509 - Leather - Grey/Black - Size UK 11

The ABZORB midsole is designed to absorb impact by combining cushioning and compression resistance, which helps reduce stress on your feet and joints during activity.

While the ABZORB midsole offers good cushioning, the 509 trainers are primarily designed for everyday wear and light training. For marathon running, specialized running shoes with advanced performance features would be more appropriate.

This specific variant is described as having a 'Leather' upper. However, other models within the 509 series may use different materials like suede, so always check the product details.

Clean gently with a soft brush or cloth using mild soap and cool water. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.

It is not recommended to machine wash trainers, as this can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure. Hand washing and air drying is the preferred method for care.

The New Balance 509 series often comes in various colorways. Please check available listings for specific color options, as this guide refers to the Grey/Black variant.

The 509 series typically focuses on a balance of classic style and everyday comfort with features like the ABZORB midsole, often presenting a lower-profile silhouette compared to more performance-oriented models.

Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, ensure laces are snug from the bottom up. For a looser fit, slacken the laces. Consider if insoles or different sock thicknesses might be needed.

This can sometimes happen due to moisture trapped between layers. Ensure the shoes are dry. If the squeak persists, a light dusting of baby powder inside the shoe might help absorb excess moisture.

Regular wear will naturally cause some tread wear. If the grip is significantly compromised, it may be time to consider replacing the trainers for safety and performance.
