The New Balance RC42 excels as a daily wear shoe, perfect for those with an active lifestyle that involves more casual movement rather than high-intensity sports. Its low-profile and minimalist design makes it an excellent choice for:
Everyday Errands: Comfortable for walking around town, shopping, or commuting.

Casual Social Gatherings: Its classic aesthetic makes it a stylish complement to casual outfits for meeting friends or weekend outings.
Travel: Lightweight and versatile, making it a good packing option for trips where comfort and style are key.
While it's built for your active lifestyle, users should note that its design prioritizes style and casual comfort over specialized athletic performance features. For activities requiring significant cushioning, stability, or aggressive traction (e.g., long-distance running, trail running, basketball), a more specialized athletic shoe would be recommended. The suede and mesh upper provides good breathability for daily use, while the overall construction ensures durability for regular wear.

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your New Balance RC42 shoes with suede and mesh:
Spot Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) to gently brush off loose debris from both suede and mesh.
Suede Cleaning: For stains on suede, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing or saturating the material with water.
Mesh Cleaning: For mesh areas, a mild soap mixed with water and a soft cloth can be used. Gently wipe the mesh, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove soap residue.
Drying: Always allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage materials.
Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and fabric to protect your shoes from the elements.
Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
