FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear. While they offer comfort for walking, they are not optimized for high-performance running or athletic training.

How do I clean the blue suede?

Use a soft suede brush to remove dust. For stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a very mild soap solution can be used cautiously. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and allow to air dry.

What does 'Made in England' signify?

It signifies that these particular New Balance trainers were manufactured in their factory in Flimby, Cumbria, England, which is known for producing premium quality footwear with meticulous craftsmanship.

What is the typical fit of the 1500 model?

The 1500 generally offers a standard fit. Many users find them true to size, but individual foot shapes can vary. It's recommended to consult size guides or try them on if possible.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the shoes offer some protection, they are not waterproof. Suede can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to consider using a suede protector spray for water resistance.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Warranty details typically vary by retailer and region. It is recommended to check the warranty information provided by the seller at the time of purchase.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thicker socks around the house for a short period to allow them to stretch slightly. If still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate or if a different lacing technique might help.

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly, followed by brushing.

Soles feel stiff

Ensure you are wearing them for sufficient periods; the cushioning will adapt to your foot over time with regular wear.

Laces fraying

Replace laces with new ones of similar material and length. You can often find direct replacements from the brand or reputable shoe accessory retailers.

Care Instructions:
