FAQs
Are these sneakers true to size?
The New Balance 57/40 typically fits true to size for standard foot widths. Ensure you verify your UK 9.5 fit.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the leather and adhesive. Always clean them by hand.
Are they suitable for running?
No, these are classified as lifestyle trainers and are not designed for running or high-impact training.
How do I maintain the grey colour?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and use protective leather sprays to keep the colour from fading.
Is the leather upper waterproof?
The material is durable, but not waterproof. We recommend applying a water-repellent spray to handle light moisture.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The 57/40 features a high-quality leather upper combined with supporting overlays.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Use shoe trees when not wearing the sneakers to help maintain their shape and minimize deep creases.
Surface dirt on the leather
Wipe the affected area gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
Reduced comfort after long-term use
Consider replacing the factory insoles with high-quality orthotic inserts to restore support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 57/40 sneakers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Initial Fit: Ensure the UK 9.5 sizing is appropriate for your foot shape, allowing for natural toe movement.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dust. For deeper cleaning on leather portions, use a damp cloth and specialized leather cleaner, avoiding harsh chemicals.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray can help protect the grey finish from unexpected splashes.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or discolouring over time.
- Rotation: Allow the shoes to air out for 24 hours between heavy usage days to maintain the freshness of the interior.
