FAQs
Is the New Balance RC56 suitable for running?
No, the RC56 is designed primarily as a lifestyle and casual trainer. It does not contain the specialized cushioning or stability features required for long-distance running.
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally fit true to standard UK adult sizing. If you have particularly wide feet, you may prefer to try a half-size larger if available.
Can I remove the insoles?
Most New Balance models feature removable insoles, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if necessary.
What is the primary material used?
The RC56 series is available in both leather and nylon variations depending on the specific model and colorway.
Are these machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes, as it can compromise the materials and structural support. Hand cleaning is the safest method.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel slightly stiff upon first wear
Leather versions often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short walks over several days to allow the upper to mold to your foot shape.
Surface marks or scuffs on the upper
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for localized cleaning. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that may damage the finish.
Laces coming undone frequently
Ensure you are using a double knot if the laces are particularly slick, or replace them with a slightly textured flat lace of similar length.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: If you have a leather model, wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the material to soften.
- Compatibility: These trainers work well with casual socks, including invisible or crew-length styles, depending on your fashion preference.
- Cleaning: Wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For leather components, use a dedicated leather cleaner; for nylon, use a mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the adhesives and structural integrity of the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material fading or cracking.
