Can I wash these in the washing machine?

What is the primary cushioning technology used?
The 880R uses ABZORB cushioning, which is designed to absorb impact and resist compression.
Are these shoes unisex?
The New Balance 880R series is available in various size configurations that cater to different genders depending on the specific model variant.
How do I maintain the suede finish?
Use a dry suede brush regularly to remove dust and dirt before it sets into the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently restore the nap of the material.

Wipe the rubber outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap solution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 880R trainers maintain their appearance, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Because the upper is constructed from suede, avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or mud. If the suede becomes dirty, use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift debris. For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and avoid submerging the shoes in water, as this can damage the material texture and structure.
