FAQs

What material is the New Balance XC-72 made of?

The upper is constructed from a premium combination of suede and fabric.

How do I clean the suede parts of the sneaker?

Use a suede brush for dry dirt and a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth with mild soap for stains. Always allow suede to air dry naturally.

Are these suitable for athletic performance?

While they feature a durable, traction-focused sole, they are primarily designed as lifestyle sneakers for everyday wear and casual activities, not for intense athletic training.

What is the main benefit of the midsole?

The double EVA midsole is designed to provide maximum comfort and cushioning for extended wear.

How does the XC-72 compare to the 327 model?

The XC-72 is inspired by the 327 model and represents the latest lifestyle offering from New Balance, building on similar design philosophies while introducing its own distinct features.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained.

Use a dedicated suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, try a specialized suede cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, then let it air dry. Avoid soaking the material.

Comfort is less than expected.

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Wear the shoes for a few days to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. The double EVA midsole is designed for comfort, but a break-in period may be necessary.

Traction feels reduced.

Check the rubber sole for any embedded debris or excessive wear. Clean the sole with a damp cloth to remove any slick residues. If the sole shows significant wear, replacement might be considered, though this is uncommon with proper use.
