FAQs

What does 'Made in UK' signify for these trainers?

'Made in UK' signifies that these trainers are manufactured at New Balance's Flimby factory in England, reflecting a commitment to premium craftsmanship and heritage quality.

How do the ENCAP and ABZORB cushioning technologies work together?

ENCAP midsole cushioning provides a supportive core by combining soft foam with a durable polyurethane rim, while ABZORB SBS heel cushioning absorbs shock, adding extra stability and comfort for extended wear.

Are these trainers suitable for athletic performance?

While they offer excellent comfort and support for daily activities, these trainers are primarily designed as lifestyle footwear, inspired by athletic heritage rather than for intense athletic performance.

What is the best way to clean the perforated leather upper?

Wipe the perforated leather gently with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the perforations or the leather.

How should I care for the nubuck material?

Use a soft brush to remove dirt and dust. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized nubuck cleaner can be used. Applying a protective spray designed for nubuck is recommended.

What is the inspiration behind the colorway and design?

The design draws inspiration from seasonal color palettes and classic motorsport aesthetics, with the perforated leather upper referencing the interiors of high-performance vehicles.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the materials offer some protection, it is best to avoid wearing these trainers in heavy rain. Using a water-repellent protector spray can offer additional defense against moisture.

Troubleshooting

Squeaking noise from shoes

This can sometimes happen with new shoes. Try wearing them more to break them in. If the noise persists, check if the insole is loose and reposition it, or try a small amount of talcum powder under the insole.

Leather creasing

Creasing is a natural part of leather wear. To minimize the appearance, ensure proper fit and avoid over-tightening laces. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape and reduce deep creases.

Discoloration on nubuck or suede

Ensure you have used a quality protector spray. For minor marks, try a dedicated suede eraser or a clean, dry brush. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
