FAQs
What materials are the Balenciaga Track Trainers made from?
The upper is crafted from a blend of polyurethane, polyester, and nylon, making them a leather-free option. The sole consists of rubber, EVA, and TPU, with a gel insole for added comfort.
How do I clean my Track Trainers?
For the mesh and nylon upper, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. For the sole, use a soft brush. Always air dry away from direct heat. Do not machine wash.
Do these trainers come with extra laces?
Yes, each pair of Balenciaga Track Trainers includes one additional pair of laces, allowing for replacement or alternative styling.
What does 'washed effect' mean?
The 'washed effect' is a deliberate design treatment that gives the trainers a pre-worn, slightly distressed look. This contributes to their unique, fashion-forward aesthetic.
Are these trainers comfortable for everyday wear?
Yes, they are designed for comfort. The dynamic sole with its augmented back and a 50mm arch, combined with a gel insole, provides significant cushioning and support for daily use.
Where is the size indicated on the shoe?
The written size is subtly indicated at the edge of the toe as a distinctive design detail.
Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?
While they offer comfort and support, Balenciaga Track Trainers are primarily designed as fashion footwear for casual and urban wear, not for high-performance sports or running. Their robust design and specific sole architecture are optimized for style and comfort in everyday settings.
Troubleshooting
My trainers look pre-worn, is this normal?
Yes, the Balenciaga Track Trainers feature an intentional 'washed effect' designed to give them a well-worn, lived-in appearance right out of the box. This is part of their unique aesthetic.
The laces seem complicated to tie.
The trainers come with double laces, pre-knotted in a specific style. You typically only need to adjust the tension and tie the top knot. If they come undone, simply re-tie the top knot. An additional pair of laces is included if you prefer to experiment with different lacing methods.
How do I remove dirt from the mesh and nylon upper?
Gently wipe the affected areas with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, a small amount of mild, diluted soap can be used. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the material and the 'washed effect'.
The sole feels bulky for some activities.
The dynamic sole design with its augmented back is designed for comfort and a distinct aesthetic, which contributes to a bulkier profile. These trainers are optimized for casual wear and fashion statements rather than high-performance athletic activities where a lighter, more streamlined shoe might be preferred.

Care
Proper care will preserve the distinctive look and extend the lifespan of your Balenciaga Track Trainers:

- Sole Cleaning: Use a soft brush or old toothbrush with mild soap and water to clean the rubber, EVA, and TPU sole, paying attention to the intricate 'track' patterns.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
