FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed for everyday wear and light athletic activities. For serious running or high-impact sports, a specialized running shoe would be more appropriate.

How do I determine the correct UK size?

Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance or measure your foot length and compare it to the UK sizing conversion. The model U4089BN is unisex, so fit can vary.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the leather components. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

What is the primary material of the shoe?

The trainers feature a blend of premium leather for durability and structure, combined with breathable mesh for ventilation.

Are these trainers waterproof?

The trainers are not waterproof. The mesh panels offer breathability, which means they are not designed to repel significant amounts of water.

How should I store these trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.

What does 'Unisex' mean for sizing?

Unisex means the shoe is designed to be worn by any gender. Sizing is typically based on standard foot measurements, but individual fit preferences may vary.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If new, leather may require a short break-in period. Loosen laces to allow more room.

Discoloration on leather parts

Wipe gently with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains, consult a specialist leather cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

The outsole is designed for general traction. For slick conditions, exercise caution. Ensure the outsole is free from debris.

Interior feels warm

The mesh lining offers breathability, but prolonged high activity may increase warmth. Ensure socks are made of moisture-wicking material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no assembly. Ensure you select the correct UK size for optimal fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for unisex adult wear. Ideal for casual everyday use, walking, and light athletic activities. Not designed for professional or high-intensity sports.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt from the leather and mesh. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid machine washing.
  2. Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
  3. Leather Care: Consider using a leather conditioner periodically to maintain the suppleness and appearance of the leather elements.
  4. Laces: Clean laces separately by hand or in a mesh bag in the washing machine on a gentle cycle.
