FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for professional basketball games?

While inspired by basketball, these trainers are primarily designed for casual wear and recreational activities. For professional play, specialized performance footwear might be more appropriate.

How do I know if UK 11.5 is the right size for me?

It is recommended to check the New Balance sizing chart or try them on if possible. Foot shape can vary, and what fits one person perfectly may not fit another.

Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?

The leather upper offers some protection, but these trainers are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or wet surfaces to protect the material.

What is the warranty period for these trainers?

Please refer to the retailer's or manufacturer's specific warranty policy for details on coverage and duration.

How should I store my New Balance 480 trainers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or their original box, to protect them from dust and moisture.

Can the insole be removed or replaced?

The extended insert is part of the shoe's construction for stability. While some users may replace insoles, doing so might alter the intended fit and support.

Troubleshooting

Initial tightness in fit

Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow the leather to mold to your foot. Consider wearing them with thicker socks for a snugger fit during the break-in period.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder under the insole or to the tongue area. Ensure laces are not overtightened.

Dirt on white leather

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap if necessary. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner might be effective. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

  • Comfortable for everyday wear.

Cons

  • May not be suitable for high-level professional basketball due to modern performance demands.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers require no setup. They are ready to wear out of the box.

Compatibility: Designed for adult males, these trainers are suitable for a variety of casual athletic activities and everyday wear. They are compatible with standard sock types.

Care: To maintain the quality and appearance of the leather, clean with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For the rubber outsole, a gentle brush can remove dirt and debris. It is recommended to store them in a cool, dry place when not in use.
