FAQs
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, it is highly recommended to avoid machine washing as it can damage the suede material and compromise the integrity of the cushioning.
Does the 880R provide arch support?
While not specifically marketed as orthopedic footwear, the ABZORB cushioning provides substantial support suitable for casual daily walking.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the 880R is designed as a unisex trainer suitable for both men and women.
How should I store them to prevent the white from yellowing?
Keep them in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated environment to prevent discoloration caused by direct UV light exposure.
Can I use these for running?
They are inspired by running designs from the 2000s but are best suited for everyday lifestyle wear rather than intensive running training.
Troubleshooting
The suede is showing water marks
Let the shoes air dry completely in a shaded area, then use a clean suede brush to buff the surface to restore the nap.
Midsole looks scuffed
Use a damp cloth with mild soapy water to gently wipe the rubber midsole, then dry immediately with a clean towel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 880R trainers maintain their appearance, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove dry dirt or dust regularly. For deeper stains, use a suede-safe cleaning solution and avoid soaking the material.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the white and grey pigments over time.
- Protection: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before first use to create a protective barrier against the elements.
- Compatibility: These trainers feature a standard fit suitable for most adult foot shapes; however, since they use a lace-up closure, ensure you tie them with appropriate tension to maintain the integrity of the eyelets.
