FAQs

What is the T500 best suited for?

The New Balance T500 trainers are best suited for casual wear, everyday comfort, and light, leisure-style running. They are not designed for high-intensity athletic training or competition.

How do I clean the suede and leather parts?

Use a dry suede brush for dirt removal. For stains, a slightly damp cloth or a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Always allow the shoes to air dry naturally.

Are these trainers good for wide feet?

While designed for a classic fit, the suede and leather materials can offer some flexibility. However, for significantly wide feet, it's advisable to try them on first or explore other New Balance models specifically designed for wider fits.

What is the difference between the original T500 and this version?

The original T500 was built for track running. This new version retains the classic aesthetic but is updated and optimized for casual wear and leisure running, prioritizing comfort and style over competitive performance.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the leather offers some protection, suede can be sensitive to excessive moisture. It's advisable to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Using a suede protector spray can improve water resistance.

What sizes are available?

The T500 trainers are available in various UK adult sizes. Please check the product listing for the specific size range offered, including options for men and unisex fits.

Troubleshooting

T500 trainers feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If they still feel snug, try wearing them with thinner socks. Suede and leather may stretch slightly with wear.

Suede or nubuck material getting dirty

Use a dry suede brush to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry completely. Test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.

Lack of cushioning for longer runs

These trainers are designed for leisure running. For longer or more intense runs, consider adding aftermarket insoles for enhanced cushioning or opt for a shoe specifically designed for performance running.

Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces

The rubber outsole provides traction, but performance can vary on very wet or smooth surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. For increased grip on challenging surfaces, consider a shoe with a more aggressive tread pattern.
