Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 509 Reflection trainers are designed for adults seeking a blend of comfort and style for both athletic pursuits and everyday wear. Their key benefit lies in the ABZORB midsole, providing excellent shock absorption for all-day comfort. A potential caveat is that while versatile, they are primarily designed as trainers and may not offer specialized support for high-impact sports. This shoe features a low-profile design, secure lace-up closure, padded tongue and ankle, the iconic New Balance logo, and a non-slip textured outsole.

FAQs
What type of foot support do these trainers offer?
The New Balance 509 trainers feature an ABZORB midsole for excellent shock absorption and general cushioning, suitable for all-day comfort and moderate activities.
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
While the ABZORB midsole offers good cushioning, these trainers are primarily designed for general wear and moderate athletic activities. For marathon running, specialized running shoes offering more advanced support and cushioning might be more appropriate.
How do I clean the suede upper?
Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Avoid using water and allow to air dry.
Can I wear these trainers in wet conditions?
The suede material is not inherently waterproof. While the outsole provides grip, prolonged exposure to wet conditions is not recommended for maintaining the condition of the suede.
What is the main advantage of the ABZORB midsole?
The ABZORB midsole effectively absorbs impact by combining cushioning and compression resistance, leading to enhanced comfort and reduced stress on the feet and joints.
Is the sizing standard for New Balance trainers?
Generally, New Balance sizing is consistent. However, it's always recommended to check the specific size guide or try them on if possible, as fit can vary slightly between models.
Troubleshooting
Initial tightness or discomfort
Wear the trainers around the house for short periods to allow them to break in. Ensure laces are adjusted for a comfortable, secure fit without over-tightening.
Suede material looks worn or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap of the material. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.
Reduced grip on slippery surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean and free from debris. If the grip has significantly diminished over time, consider replacement.

Care Instructions:
