FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by 2000s running shoes, the 880R is designed for casual lifestyle use rather than high-intensity athletic running.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. Avoid liquid cleaners that are not specifically formulated for suede.

Is this a unisex model?

Yes, the New Balance 880R is a unisex trainer, designed to fit a wide range of adult foot shapes.

What is the primary cushioning technology used?

These trainers feature ABZORB cushioning, which helps absorb impact via a combination of cushioning and compression resistance.

Can I use orthotic insoles with these shoes?

Yes, many users find the 880R accommodates custom orthotic insoles, though you may need to remove the factory-issued footbed for the best fit.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty keeping the trainers clean

Apply a suede-specific protective spray immediately and spot-clean dry dirt with a soft brush.

Sensation of the fit being too loose

Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets and tightened specifically at the midfoot arch.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent underfoot comfort from ABZORB technology
  • Timeless 2000s-inspired retro style
  • Secure and adjustable fit with classic laces
  • High-quality suede construction
  • Versatile colorway suitable for various wardrobes

Cons

  • Suede material is susceptible to staining in wet weather
  • White coloring requires frequent cleaning to maintain appearance
  • Not intended for high-intensity athletic performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, utilize the lace-up fastening to secure the shoe firmly around the midfoot without over-tightening. For care, it is essential to treat the suede upper with a protective water and stain repellent spray before the first use. To clean, use a soft-bristle brush to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the suede texture and color. If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
