FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
The New Balance T500 Low Shoes are designed primarily for casual wear. While they offer comfort for everyday activities, they do not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for intense athletic activities like running or sports.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Gently wipe the leather with a clean, dry cloth to remove dust. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the shoes or using harsh cleaning agents. Regularly conditioning the leather will help maintain its quality.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
The leather upper can be susceptible to water damage. While a waterproofing spray can offer some protection, it is advisable to avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions to preserve the material.
Are these shoes true to size?
Generally, New Balance footwear is known for consistent sizing. However, individual fit can vary. It is recommended to refer to sizing charts and consider trying them on if possible.
What is the main advantage of the leather material?
The leather upper provides durability, a classic aesthetic, and a comfortable feel that molds to your foot over time, offering a premium look and feel.
Can these shoes be worn by both men and women?
Yes, these are unisex shoes, designed to be suitable for adult wear regardless of gender.
How often should I condition the leather?
It's recommended to condition the leather every few months, or whenever the material appears dry, to keep it supple and prevent cracking. Frequency may vary based on usage and environmental conditions.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Wear them for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in. If still too tight, ensure you have the correct size, as leather can sometimes feel snug when new.
Leather scuff marks appear
Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, a leather cleaner or a colored shoe polish matching the shoe's color might be effective.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
New shoe soles can sometimes be slick. Walking on them outdoors can help 'wear in' the sole. If the issue persists, consider consulting a cobbler about adding traction if necessary.
