FAQs

What is the fit like for these trainers?

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels off

Ensure laces are adjusted correctly. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different size, as individual foot shapes can vary. Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements.

Leather scuffs easily

Address scuffs promptly with a leather cleaner or conditioner. For minor marks, a soft eraser can sometimes be effective. Regular conditioning helps maintain the leather's resilience.

Laces are difficult to tie securely

Check if the laces are the original ones. If they are worn or slippery, consider replacing them with new, standard shoelaces. Experiment with different lacing techniques if needed.
