FAQs

How do I clean the suede parts?

Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material.

Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?

No, it is not recommended. The materials, especially the suede, can be damaged. Clean them by hand.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

You can wear any type of socks with these shoes, but thicker socks may provide more comfort.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While comfortable for walking and casual wear, these are not designed for serious running. Consider shoes specifically made for running for optimal performance.

Where can I find replacement insoles?

Replacement insoles are often available at shoe stores or online retailers that sell New Balance products.

How do I ensure the shoes maintain their shape?

Use shoe trees when storing the shoes to help maintain their shape and prevent creases.

What is the lifespan of the FuelCell midsole?

The lifespan depends on usage, but typically, the cushioning can last for several hundred miles of walking before losing effectiveness.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces or consider going up a half size.

Suede gets stained easily.

Use a suede protector spray before wearing the shoes to prevent stains. Clean immediately with a suede cleaner and a brush.

The cushioning might compress with use. Replace the insoles if needed, or consider rotating between different pairs of shoes to extend the life of the cushioning.
