FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the New Balance 880R generally fits true to standard UK sizing for adults.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the suede upper and compromise the adhesive used in the sole; stick to manual spot cleaning.
Is the ABZORB cushioning suitable for running?
While inspired by running designs, the 880R is primarily intended for casual, everyday wear rather than dedicated long-distance training.
What is the primary material used on the upper?
The upper is constructed from premium suede, which provides a soft feel and distinctive texture.
How do I protect the suede from rain?
You can apply a water-repellent spray specifically formulated for suede before wearing them outdoors.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a soft-bristle suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material in a circular motion.
Visible water or dirt spots
Allow the shoes to air dry completely, then use a dry suede eraser to gently buff away the debris.
Laces becoming loose during the day
Ensure they are laced tightly through all eyelets and consider a double-knot if you are walking long distances.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the 880R utilizes a suede upper, proper care is essential to extend the life of the trainers. Avoid wearing these in heavy rain or mud, as water can damage the suede texture. If they become dirty, use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dust and debris. For deeper cleaning, apply only products specifically designed for suede, testing on a small, inconspicuous area first. When not in use, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
