New Balance 237 Trainers - Beige/White Leather - UK 6.5

The 237 trainers are inspired by heritage running shoes and are suitable for light jogging and everyday wear. However, they are not designed with the advanced technology and support needed for serious or high-mileage running.

The materials can vary by specific colorway, but this particular model features a combination of leather and suede on the upper, with an EVA midsole and a rubber outsole.

For suede, use a dry suede brush to remove dirt and maintain the nap. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth can be used carefully. Always allow them to air dry.

The 237 trainers feature an EVA midsole that provides cushioning and moderate support. For individuals requiring significant arch support, consider using custom orthotics or insoles.

While the trainers offer some protection, they are not waterproof. The leather and suede materials can be damaged by excessive moisture. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions, and ensure they are properly cared for if they get damp.

The 237 model distinguishes itself by its direct homage to 1970s running shoe aesthetics, combined with exaggerated modern design elements like an oversized 'N' logo and extended midsole, offering a unique balance of heritage and contemporary style.

Ensure you have the correct size. If slightly tight, wearing them with thin socks for short periods can help stretch them naturally. For significant tightness, consider exchanging for a larger size.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole, or check if the laces are too tight.

The herringbone outsole provides good grip, but performance on very wet surfaces may be reduced. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris. For enhanced grip in wet conditions, consider specialized footwear.

Clean promptly using appropriate methods: a soft brush for dry dirt on suede, a damp cloth with mild soap for leather. Use specialized suede cleaners for tougher stains.
