FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While based on heritage running engineering, the 1300 is primarily designed as a lifestyle trainer for everyday use rather than high-performance athletics.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a suede-specific brush or eraser. Avoid using water or standard laundry detergents, as these can permanently damage the suede nap.

Do these shoes fit true to size?

Yes, most users find the New Balance 1300 fits true to size, offering a standard width that suits most foot shapes.

What is the benefit of the ENCAP sole?

ENCAP technology combines a soft, cushioned core with a durable polyurethane rim, providing both comfort and long-lasting support.

Can I replace the insoles?

Yes, the insoles are removable and can be replaced with custom orthotics if required for extra arch support.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, they are made from natural suede and are not waterproof. We recommend using a water-repellent spray for minor protection.

Troubleshooting

Visible water or dirt spots on suede

Use a dry, soft-bristled suede brush to gently rub the affected area; for tougher stains, use a dedicated suede eraser.

Loss of cushioning feel over time

Ensure the shoes are not being worn for high-impact activities for which they were not designed; check that the internal insoles are seated correctly.

Creasing in the upper

Use a shoe tree when not in use to maintain the shape of the leather and reduce structural creasing.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Getting the most out of your New Balance 1300 trainers requires proactive care. Because they are constructed from suede, it is recommended to apply a protective suede repellent spray before initial wear to guard against dirt and light spills. For maintenance, use a specialized suede brush to lift dust and restore the nap of the material. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water, as this can cause the suede to harden or lose its shape. If the shoes become damp, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material cracking.
