FAQs
Are the New Balance T500 trainers suitable for actual running?
The T500 was originally designed for track running, but this modern version is better suited for casual wear and light jogging rather than competitive running. For serious athletic performance, consider specialized running shoes.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or New Balance. Ensure you measure your foot accurately. The product description lists UK sizes.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and suede materials and compromise the shoe's structure.
What type of socks should I wear with these trainers?
Ankle socks or no-show socks are generally recommended for a clean, casual look. Thin to medium-weight athletic socks also work well for comfort.
How durable is the suede and nubuck material?
Suede and nubuck are durable materials when properly cared for. Regular cleaning and protection will help maintain their condition and longevity.
What is the primary color of the T500 trainers?
The primary color is white, with brown accents. The specific shade of brown may vary slightly depending on the lighting.
Do these trainers offer good arch support?
The T500 offers moderate support suitable for casual wear. For individuals requiring significant arch support, consider using aftermarket insoles.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears stiff or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, consult a specialized leather cleaner.
Leather creasing excessively
This is a natural characteristic of leather. Ensure the fit is correct. Using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape.
Laces are worn or dirty
Replace laces with new ones of a similar color and length. Clean existing laces with mild soap and water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult use and are suitable for males and females across a wide range of UK shoe sizes. They are compatible with various casual and athleisure outfits.
Care: To maintain the premium look of your T500 trainers:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the suede and leather surfaces. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.

- Storage: Store the trainers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag, to protect them from dust and sunlight.
