FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance RC56 Trainers are designed for casual wear and comfort. While they can be used for light jogging, they are not specialized running shoes and may lack the necessary support and cushioning for intense or long-distance running.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by New Balance, which typically includes measurements in both UK and other international sizing systems. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The leather material offers some resistance, but these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may saturate the leather. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions and to dry them thoroughly if they do get wet.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information can vary. Please refer to the product packaging or the official New Balance website for the most accurate and up-to-date warranty details specific to your purchase region.
How often should I condition the leather?
Condition the leather every 3-6 months, or more frequently if the shoes are exposed to harsh conditions or frequent cleaning, to maintain its flexibility and prevent drying.
Are there other color options available?
The RC56 series may come in various colorways. Please check the product listings or the New Balance website for availability of other colors.
Troubleshooting
Leather creasing excessively
Ensure proper fit to avoid excessive folding. Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain shape and reduce creasing.
Discoloration from dirt or stains
Clean immediately with a damp cloth or appropriate leather cleaner. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber sole may need a brief break-in period. For persistent issues on very smooth surfaces, consider a light scuffing of the sole or consult a cobbler.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Compatibility: The New Balance RC56 Trainers are designed for general casual wear. They are compatible with most casual attire such as jeans, shorts, and casual trousers.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: To clean the leather, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly.
- Drying: If the trainers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as these can damage the leather.
- Conditioning: Periodically, use a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent cracking, especially after cleaning.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or their original box, to maintain their shape and protect the material.
