FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature excellent impact protection, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers rather than dedicated performance running shoes.
How do I know if the UK 12 fits me?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent; however, ensure you have about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Is the leather waterproof?
The leather is durable but not waterproof. We recommend applying a water-repellent spray if you intend to wear them in wet conditions.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are typically removable if you need to insert your own custom orthotics.
How do I keep the green colour vibrant?
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and use cleaning products specifically formulated for coloured leather.
Troubleshooting
Leather appearing dull or dry
Apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.
Creasing in the toe box
Use shoe trees when not wearing to help the material retain its original shape.
Slippage or discomfort
Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly and consider re-tying using a runner's loop if heel slip occurs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 1890 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Leather uppers may feel stiff initially; wear them for short durations to allow the material to conform to your foot.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For deep cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner; avoid soaking the leather in water.
- Moisture Protection: Applying a leather-safe water repellent spray can help protect the surface from light rain and stains.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which can cause the leather to crack over time.
