FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
While inspired by classic running shoes, the New Balance 373 Trainers are designed primarily for casual daily wear and light sporty occasions. They are not engineered for high-performance running or intense athletic activities.
How do I clean the suede part of my trainers?
To clean suede, first use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently rub with a suede eraser or a cloth dampened with a specialized suede cleaner. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
The suede and mesh materials offer limited water resistance. While they can withstand light drizzle, heavy rain should be avoided to protect the materials. Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray for added protection.
What is the fit like for these trainers?
These trainers feature a padded collar and cushioned insole for a comfortable fit. They generally run true to New Balance's standard sizing. For precise fit, refer to New Balance's official size guide.
What materials are used in the construction?
The New Balance 373 Trainers feature a premium blend of suede and mesh for the upper, a cushioned insole for comfort, and a durable rubber outsole for grip and traction.
How can I prevent my trainers from developing odors?
Allow your trainers to air out in a well-ventilated area after each wear. Using odor-absorbing inserts or a shoe deodorizer spray can also help maintain freshness.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.
Trainers feel uncomfortable after prolonged wear.
Ensure you have the correct size. The padded collar and cushioned insole are designed for comfort, but personal arch support inserts can be added if needed for extra comfort. Allow a short break-in period for the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Unpleasant odor develops inside the trainers.
Allow trainers to air out naturally after each wear. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or shoe deodorizers. For persistent odors, a mild antibacterial shoe spray can be used.
Laces come undone frequently.
Ensure you are using a secure lacing knot, such as a double knot. You may also consider replacing the laces with ones that have more friction.
Minor scuffs or marks on the rubber sole.
Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn scuffs, a magic eraser or a similar cleaning pad can be effective.
