Built on the classic CT300 silhouette, this model offers a unique visual appeal with its stacked midsole and bold branding, making it an excellent choice for casual daily wear.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the CT302 is designed as a lifestyle and fashion trainer, not for high-intensity athletic or running performance.
Does the suede require special care?
Yes, suede is delicate. We recommend using a water-repellent spray and avoiding wear in heavy rain or muddy conditions.
How does the sizing compare to other models?
The CT302 generally fits true to size for standard adult sizing, though individuals with wider feet may prefer to verify measurements with a size guide.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, washing machines can damage the suede overlays and affect the structural integrity of the stacked midsole.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper consists of a combination of breathable mesh and premium suede overlays.
Are there other colour options available?
Yes, the CT302 series comes in various colourways, including monochrome black and cream/black variations.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on suede surfaces
Use a specialized suede brush to lift dirt; do not use heavy water-based cleaners which can cause water spotting.
Creasing at the toe box
Use a shoe tree when not in use to help the upper retain its shape and minimize deep creases.
Laces loosening during wear
Replace standard laces with high-friction cotton laces or use a double-knot technique for a more secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your trainers maintain their look, follow these care guidelines:
- Protective Spray: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to guard against the elements.
- Cleaning: For light surface dirt, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris from the suede overlays. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the beige material from fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard lace-up closure allowing for a customizable, secure fit. Ensure you check your size against standard New Balance adult sizing charts to achieve the best fit for your foot width.
