FAQs
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
While the rubber sole provides good traction, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to prevent staining and water damage.
How do I choose the right size?
The New Balance 1890 follows standard adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your typical size, ensuring there is a thumb's width of space at the toe.
Are these suitable for intense running?
These trainers are designed for everyday wear and lifestyle activities. While they contain running heritage, they are not intended for long-distance or high-intensity athletic running.
What is the best way to store the trainers?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading and to maintain the integrity of the adhesive and materials.
Do these shoes require a break-in period?
Most users find them comfortable immediately, though the suede may take a few wears to soften and mold perfectly to the unique shape of your foot.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a specialized suede brush or a clean, dry toothbrush to gently lift the nap of the suede in a circular motion.
Difficulty achieving a comfortable fit
Ensure the laces are loosened entirely when putting on the shoe and adjust the tension gradually from the toe box upwards.
Minor scuffs on the suede
Use a dry suede eraser to gently rub the scuffed area until the mark is lifted, then brush the fibers back into place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1890 trainers stay in peak condition, proper care is essential. Given the suede upper, it is highly recommended to apply a protective suede spray before the first wear to guard against water and dirt. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the material to warp or crack. For general maintenance, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove surface debris. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this will damage the suede fibers.
