FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for athletic performance?

The New Balance 480 trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual wear, offering comfort and style. While they have performance-inspired features, they are not intended for rigorous athletic activities.

What material are the New Balance 480 trainers made of?

The description mentions leather as a material for some variants, combined with synthetic elements and a rubber outsole.

How do I clean the Ortholite insoles?

You can remove the Ortholite insoles and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely air-dried before reinserting them into the shoes.

Do these trainers run true to size?

Sizing can vary. While generally true to size, some users with wider feet may find them to be a bit snug. Trying them on or checking detailed sizing charts is recommended.

What is the main benefit of the Ortholite insoles?

Ortholite insoles provide long-lasting cushioning for comfort and superior moisture control, helping to keep your feet dry.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

While the rubber outsole offers good grip, the trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.

What does 'White Timberwolf' refer to in the product name?

'White Timberwolf' refers to the specific colorway of the trainers, indicating the primary white color with green accents (Timberwolf).

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have the correct size. If they feel snug, try wearing them with thinner socks or consider if a half-size up might be more comfortable, especially if you have wider feet.

Squeaking noise when walking

This can sometimes happen with new shoes. Try walking on different surfaces or ensure the insoles are properly seated. If the noise persists, it might be a minor manufacturing anomaly.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides good traction, but like most footwear, performance may be reduced on very wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution in such conditions.

Discomfort after extended wear

While designed for comfort, ensure the fit is correct for your foot shape. Break them in gradually with shorter wear periods. Check that the Ortholite insoles are providing adequate support.
