FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature the ABZORB midsole for comfort, they are designed as lifestyle and casual footwear, not as performance running shoes.
How do I choose the correct size?
These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing; if you are between sizes, we recommend opting for your standard New Balance size.
Can the insoles be removed?
The insoles are designed to be integrated with the ABZORB unit; we recommend against replacing them to ensure optimal performance.
How do I best maintain the color?
Keep the shoes out of direct, prolonged sunlight and use color-appropriate leather cream if you notice fading.
Are these water-resistant?
The leather is naturally resistant to light splashes, but they are not waterproof and should be treated with a leather protectant spray.
Troubleshooting
Leather appearing dull or dry
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the shoe's shape and reduce stress on leather fibers.
Stains on the leather surface
Use a damp, lint-free cloth with mild leather-safe soap; never submerge the shoes in water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal fit, ensure you are wearing socks of similar thickness to those you intend to wear daily during your initial try-on. Because the upper is constructed from genuine leather, the shoes will adapt slightly to your foot shape over time. To clean, use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive brushes that could scuff the finish. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the purple dye from fading and to preserve the integrity of the leather.
