FAQs
What materials are these Balenciaga Track Trainers made from?
The upper is constructed from polyurethane, polyester, and nylon, making them a leather-free design. The sole is made from rubber, EVA, and TPU, with a gel insole for comfort.
Are these trainers comfortable for all-day wear?
Yes, they feature a dynamic sole design with an augmented back for enhanced comfort and a gel insole, making them suitable for extended periods of wear.
How do I clean my Balenciaga Track Trainers?
Gently wipe the trainers with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals, especially on the 'washed effect' areas.
What is the 'washed effect'?
The 'washed effect' is an intentional aesthetic feature that gives the trainers a pre-worn, slightly distressed, or vintage look, contributing to their unique style.
Do these trainers come with extra laces?
Yes, one additional pair of laces is included with the trainers, allowing for replacement or a change in styling.
Are these suitable for running or sports?
While the trainers offer comfort and support, they are primarily designed as fashion footwear for lifestyle and casual use, rather than for high-performance athletic activities like running.
Troubleshooting
Trainers feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the double laces to achieve a more comfortable fit. Ensure your socks are not too thick or too thin for the chosen size. If discomfort persists, consider trying a different size.
The 'washed effect' appears to be fading or altering.
The 'washed effect' is an intentional design feature. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods or harsh chemicals, which can strip this finish. Stick to gentle wiping with a damp cloth and mild soap. Prolonged exposure to sunlight may also affect the finish.
One of the pull-on tabs rips or breaks.
While designed for convenience, avoid excessive force when using the pull-on tabs. If damage occurs, consult a professional shoe repair specialist or Balenciaga customer service for repair options.
The gel insole becomes less comfortable over time.
Insoles can compress with extended use. While the gel insole is designed for durability, you may consider replacing it with an aftermarket insole designed for comfort and support if the original cushioning diminishes significantly.
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are using a strong knotting technique, such as a double knot. The trainers come with double laces knotted in a 'usual equipment way'; replicating this style or using the extra laces provided might help.

Care Instructions
To maintain the unique aesthetic and longevity of your Balenciaga Track Trainers:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive soap. Gently wipe down the mesh, nylon, and synthetic leather areas. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes, especially on the "washed effect" areas, as this could alter the finish.
- Drying: Allow trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: Store trainers in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and light.
- Laces: If laces become dirty, they can be hand-washed separately with mild soap and air-dried.
- Avoid Submersion: Do not submerge the trainers in water, as this can damage the materials and internal structure, particularly the gel insole.
