Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or too loose.
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart and ensure the correct UK size is selected. Adjust lacing to achieve a snug but comfortable fit.
Squeaking noise during walking.
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Ensure all components are dry. If persistent, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Dirt or stains on the upper.
Use a damp cloth and mild soap for cleaning. For tougher stains on nylon, a soft brush can be used gently. Always test cleaning methods on an inconspicuous area first.
