FAQs
What materials are the Balenciaga Track Trainers made from?
These trainers feature an upper composed of polyurethane, polyester, and nylon mesh, and a lining of polyester. The sole is constructed from rubber, EVA, and TPU, with a comfortable gel insole. They are designed as 'leather free' trainers.
Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?
While the name includes 'Track,' these Balenciaga trainers are designed as a high-fashion item for urban and casual wear, emphasizing style and all-day comfort. They are not specifically engineered for high-performance athletic activities like running or intense sports.
How should I clean my Balenciaga Track Trainers?
To clean your trainers, use a soft, damp cloth with a mild soap to gently wipe the surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. The rubber sole can be scrubbed lightly with a soft brush. Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight.
Do these trainers come with extra laces?
Yes, each pair of Balenciaga Track Trainers includes 1 additional pair of laces, allowing for replacement or to change up your style.
Are Balenciaga Track Trainers heavy?
Given their chunky and dynamic sole design, the trainers have a substantial feel. However, the 96 high-tech components are engineered to distribute weight and provide comfort, ensuring they feel supportive rather than cumbersome during wear.
What does 'leather free' mean in the product description?
When the product description states 'leather free,' it indicates that the trainers are constructed without any animal leather. The upper is made entirely from synthetic materials such as polyurethane, polyester, and nylon.
Troubleshooting
My trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
The Balenciaga Track Trainers, with their complex design and materials, may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape. The 96 high-tech components are designed for comfort, which will become more apparent with wear.
Visible scuffs or marks appear on the synthetic upper.
Gently clean the affected area using a soft, damp cloth and a small amount of mild, non-abrasive soap. For stubborn marks, a specialist cleaner for synthetic footwear may be used, ensuring it is tested on an inconspicuous area first. Air dry thoroughly.
The double laces frequently come undone.
Ensure the laces are tied securely using a double knot. The trainers are designed with double laces knotted in a usual equipment way, indicating they should be secure. If the issue persists, try re-lacing them or replacing them with the additional pair of laces included.
The trainers seem to retain odours.
After wearing, allow the trainers to air out in a well-ventilated area. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside (remove before next wear) to absorb odours. Ensure insoles are removed periodically to air out as well.

Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your trainers, proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Due to their synthetic, polyester, nylon, polyurethane upper and rubber, EVA, TPU sole composition, avoid harsh cleaning agents. Gently wipe visible dirt or scuffs using a soft, damp cloth with mild soap. For deeper cleaning, a soft brush can be used on the sole. Always air dry away from direct heat.

- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve the material integrity and prevent discolouration.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures or harsh chemicals.
