FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the New Balance 550 'Vintage Pack Pecan' are designed as lifestyle trainers for everyday casual wear and are not intended for athletic running.

What material are these trainers made of?

These trainers feature a primary construction of leather, providing durability and a classic look.

How do I determine the correct size?

It is recommended to check the New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot for the most accurate fit, as individual fit can vary.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Using a leather protector spray can offer additional water resistance.

How should I clean the soles?

The soles can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. For tougher dirt, a soft brush can be used.

What is the primary color of this shoe?

The primary color is 'Pecan' (a shade of brown), complemented by black accents.

Troubleshooting

Initial stiffness

New leather shoes can be stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Using a shoehorn can help prevent damage to the heel while putting them on.

Discoloration of leather

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can fade the color. Clean with appropriate leather care products to maintain the original shade.

Laces fraying

Replace frayed laces with new ones of a similar length and material. Ensure they are tied securely but not excessively tight to avoid premature wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Simply unbox and wear.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult male wear. Designed for casual use, not performance sports.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe the leather with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated leather cleaner. Avoid soaking the shoes.
  2. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
  3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to help repel water and stains, especially before wearing them in wet conditions.
