Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If unsure, consult the New Balance sizing guide. Consider using different socks or insoles for minor adjustments.
Leather surface shows scuffs or marks.
Use a leather conditioner or cleaner appropriate for grey leather to gently buff out minor marks. For deeper scuffs, professional leather repair might be necessary.
