FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While inspired by a running silhouette, these trainers are best suited for casual wear and light activities. For intense running or athletic training, consider specialized running shoes.

How do I clean the purple leather?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the leather clean. For tougher marks, a dedicated leather cleaner can be used. Avoid soaking the shoes.

What is Abzorb cushioning?

Abzorb is New Balance's technology designed to absorb impact, providing cushioning and a comfortable feel underfoot.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is primarily constructed from leather, with black mesh accents.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

This particular model is featured in a "Plum" colorway. Other variations of the 1000 series might be available in different colors.

What size are these trainers?

This specific product is listed in UK Men's size 9.5. Please check available options for other sizes.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The leather and mesh construction offers some protection, but they are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the materials.

Troubleshooting

Discomfort or rubbing

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods initially. If discomfort persists, check for any internal seams or debris.

Leather creasing excessively

Natural creasing will occur with wear. To minimize it, avoid flexing the shoe unnaturally and ensure proper fit. Store them upright or with shoe trees.

Stains on mesh or leather

Refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for specific cleaning methods for leather and mesh. Act quickly to address spills or marks.

Slight color transfer

New leather products may have a slight risk of color transfer, especially when wet. Avoid wearing with light-colored socks or trousers in damp conditions until they have been worn a few times.
