FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While the 1300 has roots in running shoe design and offers good cushioning, they are primarily intended for daily wear and casual use rather than high-performance running.
How do I clean the suede parts?
Use a dry suede brush for routine cleaning. For stains, a suede eraser is recommended, followed by brushing. Avoid water on suede whenever possible.
What is the primary benefit of the ENCAP midsole?
The ENCAP midsole provides a combination of soft foam and a durable polyurethane rim, offering both cushioning and support for all-day comfort.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the materials used (suede and mesh) are not waterproof. The shoes offer breathability but will not protect against significant water exposure.
How do I determine the right size?

Can I machine wash these trainers?
It is strongly advised not to machine wash or dry these trainers, as it can damage the materials, adhesive, and overall construction.
What does 'Made in USA' signify?
It indicates that the shoe was manufactured in one of New Balance's factories in the United States, reflecting a commitment to domestic production and quality standards.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap and remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be carefully applied.
Mesh upper shows scuffs
Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Ensure it dries naturally.
Laces are worn or dirty
Clean laces with mild soap and water, or replace them with new laces of a similar length and style.
