FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 373 Trainers are designed for casual wear and light activity. They are not intended for serious running or high-impact athletic training, as they may lack the specific support and cushioning required for such activities.
How should I clean the suede parts of the trainers?
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product instructions. It is best to avoid soaking the suede.
What is the primary benefit of the EVA foam cushioning?
The EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) foam in the midsole and heel provides lightweight cushioning, enhancing comfort and absorbing shock during everyday wear.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the trainers offer a suede and mesh upper, they are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions can damage the suede and affect comfort. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments.
What kind of socks are best to wear with these trainers?
Any comfortable socks suitable for casual wear will work well. For added comfort and to prevent potential friction, consider breathable athletic or casual socks.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The heel height for the New Balance 373 Trainers is flat, contributing to their casual style and comfortable feel.
Troubleshooting
Fit feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the lacing system. Ensure the laces are evenly tensioned across all eyelets. If the issue persists, consider trying a different size or width.
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede brush to lift dirt. For stains, apply a dedicated suede cleaner sparingly with a cloth and allow to dry completely. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Cushioning feels less responsive over time
While EVA foam provides lasting comfort, its responsiveness may naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not being used for activities exceeding their intended casual purpose.
