Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 204L trainers last as long as possible, proper care is essential. Since the upper contains suede, avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or mud, as water can permanently damage the texture of the suede. If they get slightly dusty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized suede eraser or a foam cleaner designed specifically for suede and mesh footwear. Always store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the grey color over time. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly to balance comfort with the aesthetic ribbon effect.
