FAQs
What material is the New Balance 57/40 made from?
The upper of this particular model is primarily crafted from leather.
Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?
While comfortable for walking, the 57/40 is designed as a lifestyle sneaker for casual wear and not for high-intensity athletic training.
How do I determine my correct UK size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, which typically correlates UK shoe sizes with foot measurements in centimeters or inches. Compare your foot length to the provided chart.
Can these sneakers be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain and to treat them with a water-repellent spray for added protection.
Are there other colorways available for the 57/40 series?
Yes, the 57/40 series is available in various colorways and designs, including green options for the Lunar New Year theme, and other general releases.
How does the 57/40 differ from other New Balance models?
The 57/40 stands out with its bolder, more exaggerated interpretation of the classic 'N' logo and a rippled sole design, blending 1980s and 1990s influences with a modern twist.
Troubleshooting
Minor scuffs on leather
Use a leather conditioner or a specialized leather cleaner to gently buff out scuffs. For deeper marks, consult a professional shoe repair service.
Laces become dirty
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
Shoes feel stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Natural leather will soften with wear.
