FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
While the 1300 has a running heritage and features excellent cushioning, they are best suited for everyday casual wear and light jogging rather than high-intensity or long-distance running. For serious training, specialized running shoes are recommended.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided by New Balance, which typically includes measurements in both UK and US sizing. It's recommended to measure your foot length and compare it to the chart.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the suede, mesh, and cushioning system of the trainers.
What is the primary benefit of the ENCAP cushioning?
The ENCAP cushioning system provides a combination of soft foam and a durable polyurethane rim, offering both excellent shock absorption and long-lasting support.
How often should I clean my suede trainers?
Clean your suede trainers as needed, particularly after exposure to dirt or moisture. Regular brushing can help maintain their appearance between deeper cleans.
What does 'Made in USA' signify for these trainers?
'Made in USA' signifies that at least 70% of the manufacturing costs are incurred in the United States. It reflects New Balance's commitment to quality craftsmanship and sourcing.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
With proper care and regular maintenance, the New Balance 1300 trainers are designed for durability and can last for several years of consistent wear.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For persistent stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner.
Laces become worn or dirty
Clean laces with mild soap and water or replace them with a new pair of complementary color laces.
Sole feels less cushioned over time
While the ENCAP cushioning is durable, prolonged heavy use may reduce its responsiveness. Ensure the shoes are not subjected to excessive stress beyond their intended use.
