Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 1000 'Plum' trainers are designed for adult males seeking a blend of retro style and modern comfort. Their key benefit lies in the Abzorb-cushioned midsole, offering excellent shock absorption for everyday wear. A potential caveat is their specific colorway, which may not suit all personal styles, and the availability is limited to specific sizes like UK 5.5.

Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If still tight, try loosening the laces and wearing with thinner socks. Leather may stretch slightly with wear.
Color transfer from leather to socks
This can occasionally happen with new dyed leather. Wear with darker socks initially, or consider using a leather protector spray. Allow shoes to air out before first wear.
Squeaking sound from shoes
This can be due to moisture in the shoe or rubbing between components. Ensure shoes are dry. If the sound persists, try inserting a powder inside the shoe to absorb moisture.
