FAQs

Are the New Balance 204V shoes waterproof?

No, they are made of suede, which is not naturally waterproof. We recommend applying a suede protector spray.

Is this a unisex shoe?

Yes, the New Balance 204V is designed as a unisex model, though sizing is listed in UK adult standards.

Can I use these for long-distance running?

These are primarily lifestyle shoes inspired by running aesthetics and are not intended for high-performance athletic training.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a dedicated suede brush. For tougher stains, you may use a suede eraser, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed primarily from high-quality suede, providing a soft texture and durable finish.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt marks on suede upper

Use a dry, stiff-bristled suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt.

Water spots on the material

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a cool room. Once dry, brush the area gently to restore the texture.

Loose fit or heel slippage

Adjust the lacing system to be tighter or consider adding a thin foam insole for a more customized fit.
