FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?

How do I clean the white leather?
Wipe the shoes clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrubbers that could damage the leather finish.
Do these trainers have a wide fit?

Can I put these in the washing machine?

Are these made of genuine leather?

What should I do if the leather gets wet?

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The New Balance 480 Trainers come in a standard regular fit and are available in a wide range of UK adult sizes. To maintain the condition of your trainers, avoid machine washing or heavy soaking. Instead, use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away surface dust and dirt after use. For tougher stains on the leather, use a mild leather-safe cleaner. Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent the leather from cracking or warping over time.
