FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
No, the 57/40 series is classified as lifestyle footwear and is not engineered for long-distance running or high-impact athletic activity.
Is the material waterproof?
While leather provides some resistance to light rain, these shoes are not waterproof and should not be submerged in water.
How do I find my correct size?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent with standard UK measurements. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to opt for the larger size for extra comfort.
Can the insoles be removed?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert custom orthotics.
How should I clean the white portions?
Use a gentle leather-safe cleaning solution and a microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh household chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Leather looks dull after use
Apply a leather conditioner suitable for the specific finish to restore hydration and sheen.
Creasing at the toe box
This is normal for leather shoes; using shoe trees when not in use helps maintain shape and minimize deep wrinkles.
Scuff marks on white sections
Use a specialized rubber eraser designed for sneakers to gently lift surface-level scuffs without damaging the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your 57/40 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: New leather footwear may feel slightly stiff initially; wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied to a cloth rather than applying water directly to the shoe.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather cracking or fading of the blue pigment.
- Compatibility: These trainers are designed for casual use and are not recommended for technical sports or rugged trail running.
