FAQs

What is the main inspiration behind the New Balance 471 Trainers?

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or poor fit

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the issue persists, consider the width of the shoe or explore alternative lacing techniques for a more customized fit.

Suede material looks worn or dirty

Gently brush the suede with a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following product instructions. Protect with a suede protector spray.

Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces

Check the herringbone outsole for embedded debris. Clean the outsole with a brush. Note that the herringbone pattern is designed for general traction and may not be optimal for highly specialized or slippery conditions.
