FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the New Balance 725 generally follows standard adult sizing. If you prefer a wider fit or thicker socks, some users recommend going up by half a size.

Can I use these for running?

While they feature comfortable cushioning, they are primarily designed as lifestyle trainers and are not intended for high-mileage performance running.

How do I clean the white parts of the shoe?

Use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution for the white panels, taking care not to soak the leather.

Is the leather genuine?

The 725 series utilizes durable leather overlays as part of its signature layered construction for enhanced durability.

Does the shoe provide arch support?

The ABZORB midsole provides a supportive platform that helps with weight distribution, though those with extreme orthotic needs may choose to swap the insole.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the leather and mesh construction is breathable and not treated for water resistance. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone frequently

The laces are standard flat cotton. If they slip, consider a double knot or replacing them with textured athletic laces.

Creasing on the leather upper

Leather creasing is normal with movement. To minimize, use a shoe tree when not wearing the shoes to help retain the original shape.

Pros and Cons

  • Stylish retro-inspired design

Cons

  • Retro silhouette may be bulkier than performance sneakers
  • Leather requires specific care compared to synthetic mesh
  • Style is more lifestyle-focused than high-performance athletics

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 725 trainers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  • Break-in: These shoes feature a sturdy construction; wear them for shorter periods during the first few days to allow the leather to conform to your feet.
  • Cleaning: Since the outer layer is primarily leather, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For deeper stains, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine, as this can damage the glue and leather texture.
  • Drying: Always air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as excessive heat can cause the leather to crack or the foam midsole to lose its springiness.
  • Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place and use shoe trees if you want to maintain the specific low-top shape over a long period.
