FAQs
Are the New Balance 302 sneakers waterproof?
No, they are made from faux leather which is water-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof or suitable for submersion.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The New Balance 302 features a standard fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying both to ensure the best comfort for your foot width.
Can I put these sneakers in the washing machine?
It is highly recommended to avoid machine washing as it can damage the faux leather and the structural integrity of the thick midsole.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is crafted from durable faux leather.
Are these good for long-distance running?
These are categorized as lifestyle sneakers and are not designed for long-distance running or high-impact athletic performance.
How should I store them to maintain their shape?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, preferably with a shoe tree inserted to help the material retain its form.
Troubleshooting
Visible scuffs on the faux leather upper
Gently wipe the area with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap; avoid abrasive scouring pads.
Creasing at the toe box after wear
This is a natural occurrence with faux leather; use a shoe tree when not in use to help maintain the original shape.
Outsole collecting small debris
Use a medium-bristle brush to dislodge gravel or dirt from the textured patterns of the sole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the New Balance 302 uses faux leather, keeping them clean is straightforward. Avoid submerging the sneakers in water. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to gently wipe away surface dirt or scuffs from the upper. The rubber toe cap and midsole can be cleaned with a soft brush to remove debris trapped in the texture. Always allow your shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the materials over time. Ensure you check your specific UK size, as the structure is designed for a secure, supportive fit.
