Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 550s stay in top condition, start by wearing them for short periods to break in the materials gradually. These shoes are compatible with standard lacing techniques; you can adjust the lace tension to suit your preferred tightness. For maintenance, wipe the leather exterior regularly with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the sneakers in water or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the material finish. Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
