FAQs

How do I clean my New Balance T500 Trainers?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a suede or nubuck cleaner, following the product instructions. Avoid washing machines and harsh chemicals.

Can I put my T500 Trainers in the washing machine?

No, it is not recommended. Machine washing can damage the suede, nubuck, and other materials. Hand cleaning is the best method.

What should I do if my trainers get wet?

Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight. Stuff them with paper towels to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.

How often should I clean my trainers?

It depends on how often you wear them and the conditions you wear them in. Generally, clean them as needed when they get dirty or stained.

What type of protectant spray should I use?

Use a protectant spray specifically designed for suede and nubuck. Follow the product instructions for application.

Where can I find replacement laces?

You may be able to find replacement laces at New Balance stores, online retailers, or shoe repair shops.

How do I store my T500 Trainers?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.

Troubleshooting

Stains on the suede or nubuck uppers.

Use a suede or nubuck cleaner and a soft brush to gently remove the stain. Follow the cleaner's instructions carefully.

The trainers feel tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure the laces are not too tight. Allow time for the shoes to break in, as the materials will soften with wear.

The outsole is losing traction.

Clean the outsole regularly with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris that may be affecting the grip.

The 'N' logo is fading or peeling.

Avoid excessive scrubbing when cleaning. Use a soft cloth and gentle cleaning solutions to maintain the logo's appearance.
