FAQs

Are these sneakers suitable for running or sports?

No, the New Balance M1000NBB sneakers are designed for everyday casual wear and comfort, not for high-impact sports or running. Their construction focuses on daily support and style.

How do I determine my size?

The size listed is UK Size 7. New Balance typically runs true to size. We recommend checking your usual UK shoe size or referring to New Balance's official sizing chart if you are unsure.

Can I wear these sneakers in the rain?

While the durable rubber sole offers traction, the suede upper is not water-resistant and can be damaged by prolonged exposure to moisture. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions unless they have been treated with a waterproof suede protector.

What is ABZORB cushioning?

ABZORB is a New Balance proprietary foam material that provides excellent cushioning and shock absorption. It helps to disperse impact forces away from the foot, enhancing comfort during walking and standing.

What is Stability Web technology?

Stability Web is a lightweight arch support technology typically found in the midfoot of New Balance shoes. It helps to provide torsional rigidity and stability, preventing the foot from rolling excessively and offering better support.

How often should I clean the suede?

Regular light cleaning with a suede brush after every few wears can help maintain their appearance. Deep cleaning should be done as needed, especially after encountering dirt or stains.

Are replacement laces available?

Info needed: Check with New Balance customer service or authorized retailers for availability of replacement laces in the correct length and color.

Are these unisex?

This specific model (M1000NBB, Size 7) is listed for 'Male'. However, the New Balance 1000 series often has unisex appeal, but sizing might vary. Check specific product listings for gender applicability.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede, brushing in a single direction.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes be caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's base. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, and then reinserting the insole.

Laces frequently come undone

Ensure you are using a double knot. For a more secure knot, try tying the 'surgeon's knot' or 'friction knot' which involves an extra loop on the first tie.

Foot feels uncomfortable or rubs in specific spots

Ensure you have the correct size. The lace-up closure allows for adjustment; try loosening or tightening laces in specific areas. If discomfort persists, consider using different socks or a specialized insole for added cushioning or support in problem areas.

Stains on suede material

For fresh stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth. For dried stains, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaning solution, following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning and shock absorption for all-day comfort
  • Stylish retro design suitable for casual and streetwear fashion
  • Good stability and arch support for everyday activities
  • Durable construction with a reliable rubber sole
  • Premium suede material offers a refined look

Cons

  • Suede material requires specific care and is prone to water damage or staining
  • May not be suitable for intense athletic activities or rough terrain

  • Info needed: potential break-in period for optimal comfort

Setup: Simply lace up your New Balance M1000NBB sneakers, adjusting the lace-up closure to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure laces are tied securely to prevent them from coming undone during wear.

Compatibility: These sneakers are highly compatible with a wide range of casual and streetwear ensembles. Their black color and retro design make them a versatile addition to jeans, shorts, chinos, and even some smart-casual outfits. They are designed for everyday wear and casual activities, not for high-performance sports.

Care:

  1. Initial Protection: Consider applying a suede protector spray before the first wear to guard against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft suede brush to gently remove dust and surface debris. Brush in one direction.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner with a soft cloth. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Drying: If wet, stuff the sneakers with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
  5. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid exposing suede to excessive water or harsh cleaning agents, as this can damage the material.
