Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1954R trainers last, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: While comfortable out of the box, wear them for short periods during the first week to allow the suede and internal materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the grey and white tones over time.
- Cleaning: Because of the suede material, avoid submerging these shoes in water. Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper marks, use a suede-specific eraser or professional cleaning solution formulated for delicate leathers. Avoid harsh detergents.
- Weather Protection: It is highly recommended to apply a suede-safe water repellent spray before wearing them outdoors to provide a layer of protection against unexpected splashes.
