FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

The New Balance 480 Trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and offer good stability for walking and daily activities. They are not specialized running shoes and may lack the cushioning and support required for high-impact running.

What material are the New Balance 480 Trainers made of?

These trainers are typically constructed with a combination of leather and synthetic materials, featuring a durable rubber outsole, inspired by classic basketball shoe designs.

How do I clean the white leather on these trainers?

Use a damp cloth with mild soap and a soft brush for cleaning. Ensure you wipe away any soap residue and allow them to air dry completely. Avoid machine washing or using harsh solvents.

Do these trainers offer good arch support?

The trainers include an extended insert and a durable heel counter for added stability. While they provide foundational support, individuals requiring significant arch support might consider using aftermarket insoles.

What does 'game-worn models' refer to in the description?

This refers to design elements and features that are inspired by the appearance and construction of basketball shoes worn by athletes during games, giving them a vintage, authentic feel.

Can these trainers be worn by women?

While this specific model is listed under adult male sizing, New Balance often offers similar styles in women's sizing. It's recommended to check for equivalent women's models or consult a size conversion chart if considering a unisex fit.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and measure your foot carefully. Consider trying them on in-store if possible, or if purchasing online, check the return policy for exchanges.

Creasing on the upper material

Some creasing is normal with leather and synthetic materials, especially with wear. To minimize, use shoe trees when storing and avoid over-tightening laces.

Traction feels less effective on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but like all footwear, performance may be reduced on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The New Balance 480 Trainers require no setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult male feet. Ensure you select the correct UK size for the best fit. They are compatible with standard sock wear.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat or sunlight, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
