FAQs
What is the primary material of the New Balance XC-72?
The New Balance XC-72 'Grey' UXC72RM features a premium leather construction.
Are these shoes suitable for running or sports?
These shoes are designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. They are not intended for high-impact athletic activities.
How should I clean the grey and red leather parts?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher stains, apply a specialized leather cleaner sparingly and test on an inconspicuous area first.
What makes the sole design notable?
The sole incorporates non-slip and shock-absorbing features to enhance grip and provide comfort during wear.
What is the main benefit of the low-top design?
The low-top design offers versatility, making the shoes easy to pair with a wide range of casual outfits.
How do I know if this size UK 6 is the right fit?
Refer to New Balance's official sizing chart for men's footwear to compare your foot measurements against the UK 6 size. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary between models.
Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. Promptly air dry them if they become wet.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable initially.
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.
Leather shows signs of scuffing or minor marks.
Use a dedicated leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently buff out minor scuffs. For deeper marks, a leather repair kit or professional restoration may be necessary.
Soles feel slippery on certain wet surfaces.
While designed with non-slip features, extremely slick surfaces can still pose a risk. Exercise caution in wet conditions and ensure the sole tread is free from debris.

Care:
