FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by running designs, the 880R is intended primarily for lifestyle and everyday casual wear rather than specialized athletic running.

Can I wash these in the washing machine?

No. Machine washing can ruin the suede material and affect the integrity of the cushioning. Stick to manual surface cleaning.

Do these shoes run true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing conventions for unisex footwear.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed using high-quality suede for a vintage aesthetic and durability.

How do I clean small stains on the suede?

Use a dedicated suede eraser or a small amount of white vinegar on a clean cloth, dabbing lightly rather than rubbing aggressively.

Is there arch support in this model?

The ABZORB cushioning provides a supportive platform, though it is not categorized as a corrective medical orthotic shoe.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty maintaining the suede appearance

Use a soft-bristled brush regularly to remove dry dirt and lift the nap of the suede.

Laces coming undone frequently

Ensure the laces are threaded properly through all eyelets and consider a double knot for increased security.

Insoles feel compressed over time

Replace the insoles with high-quality aftermarket orthotics if additional arch support or cushion recovery is needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 880R Trainers stay in top condition, follow these simple guidelines:

  1. Sizing: These shoes are standard unisex sizing; refer to the UK size label for the best fit.
  2. Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the suede from fading.
  3. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust. Avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the material.
  4. Protection: Apply a suede-safe water repellent spray to protect the surface from light rain and stains.
