FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running long distances?
The New Balance 408 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light athletic activities. For long-distance running, specialized running shoes with advanced cushioning and support would be more appropriate.
What material are the New Balance 408 trainers made of?
These trainers feature a blend of leather for a premium feel and durability, combined with breathable materials to ensure comfort during wear.
How do I clean the white leather parts without staining them?
Use a slightly damp cloth for general cleaning. For stains, a mild leather cleaner can be used, but always test on a small, hidden area first. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Are these trainers unisex?
Yes, the New Balance 408 trainers are designed with a unisex fit, making them suitable for all genders.
What is the typical lifespan of these trainers with regular use?
With proper care and for everyday use, these trainers are built for durability. Lifespan can vary based on usage intensity and maintenance, but they are designed to last for a significant period.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry conditions. Prolonged exposure to wet conditions may affect the materials and should be avoided.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. If new, break them in gradually by wearing them for short periods. Consider using thinner socks or insoles if minor adjustments are needed.
Leather creasing excessively.
This is natural with leather wear. Ensure the shoes fit correctly to minimize unnatural creasing. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape when not in use.
Slight colour transfer from black to white areas.
This can occur with new shoes. It's recommended to wear them in dry conditions initially. Consider using a colourless shoe protector spray, testing first on an inconspicuous area.
