FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
These New Balance Phantom Trainers are designed for everyday use and general comfort. While lightweight and breathable, they are optimized for casual wear and walking rather than high-performance running or intense athletic activities.
How do I choose the correct size?
This specific product is a UK size 3. For future purchases or if you are unsure, we recommend measuring your foot accurately and consulting the official New Balance sizing chart, as sizes can vary slightly between different models.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended for these trainers as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall construction, potentially voiding any warranty. Please refer to the detailed care instructions for gentle cleaning methods.
What makes them breathable?
The trainers incorporate carefully selected upper materials and construction techniques that allow for enhanced air circulation. This design helps to keep your feet cool, dry, and comfortable throughout the day, even during extended wear.
What kind of outfits do these trainers go with?
With their modern grey and silver design, these trainers are exceptionally versatile. They pair well with a wide range of casual attire, including jeans, shorts, and athletic wear, and can also complement some smart-casual ensembles for a refined, comfortable look.
Do they offer arch support?
The New Balance Phantom Trainers are designed to provide a 'perfect fit' and general comfort for everyday use. While they offer inherent support, individuals requiring specific or additional arch support may consider adding aftermarket insoles for personalized comfort.
How do I prevent creasing?
To minimize creasing, ensure the trainers fit properly, as shoes that are too large can crease more easily. Storing them with shoe trees or crumpled paper when not in use can also help maintain their shape and prevent excessive creasing.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or loose
Ensure you have the correct UK size 3. If they feel tight, verify lacing isn't too restrictive. If loose, try different lacing techniques or thicker socks to improve fit. Foot swelling can also occur throughout the day, so try them at different times.
Soles feel slippery
For new trainers, the sole might need to be 'broken in' for better grip on various surfaces. Avoid walking on extremely smooth or wet surfaces if traction is a concern. Clean the soles regularly to remove any accumulated debris or residue that could reduce grip.
Foot discomfort after long wear
While designed for comfort, individual foot shapes and needs vary. Consider adding supportive insoles if standard comfort isn't sufficient for your specific requirements. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly to prevent pressure points or excessive movement inside the shoe.
Trainers develop an odor
Allow trainers to air out completely after each use, removing them from enclosed spaces like gym bags. Remove insoles occasionally to clean and dry separately. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside when not wearing them to absorb moisture and neutralize odors effectively.

Care
To maintain the appearance, comfort, and longevity of your trainers, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes, as these can damage the materials. For tougher dirt, a soft-bristled brush can be used carefully.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight). High heat can cause materials to warp, shrink, or crack. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and absorb any residual moisture.
- Odor Control: If you notice an odor developing, allow the trainers to air out thoroughly after each use. Consider removing insoles occasionally to clean and dry them separately. Shoe deodorizers or a sprinkle of baking soda inside the trainers when not in use can help absorb moisture and neutralize odors.
