FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for sports?
The New Balance 480 trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and offer good support for everyday activities. They are not intended for high-impact sports or rigorous athletic training.
How do I clean the suede parts?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner is recommended. Avoid getting the suede wet.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed with leather and features suede overlays.
What is the main benefit of the rubber cup outsole?
The durable rubber cup outsole is designed to provide reliable traction and stability on various surfaces.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While the materials offer some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials, especially the suede.
What is the 'Cortado - Sea Salt' colourway?
This refers to the specific colour combination of the trainers, featuring a brown base ('Cortado') with white accents ('Sea Salt').
Troubleshooting
Suede appearing dirty or stained
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For stubborn stains, use a suede-specific cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Avoid using water directly on the suede.
Leather creasing excessively
Creasing is natural with leather. To minimize it, ensure the shoes fit correctly. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain their shape.
Reduced traction on wet surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but like all footwear, grip may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.
Discomfort during first wear
New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure you have the correct size and fit.
