FAQs

Is the New Balance 204L suitable for running?

While it draws inspiration from 2000s running styles, the 204L is a lifestyle shoe intended for casual, daily wear rather than high-performance distance running.

Does the shoe fit true to size?

New Balance typically offers a standard fit. If you are between sizes, it is recommended to visit a retailer to try them on or consult the New Balance size guide.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from high-quality leather.

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the leather and the structure of the shoe. Use manual cleaning methods only.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

They are suitable for light gym activities or weight training, but they lack the advanced cushioning required for high-impact cardio or court sports.

Troubleshooting

Creasing in the leather upper

Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing to help minimize and smooth out creases.

Difficulty cleaning light beige material

Use a specialized leather foam cleaner and a soft sponge to avoid harsh rubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance 204L trainers last, keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources when not in use. Given the leather material, it is recommended to use a specialized leather cleaner for spot treatment rather than submersing them in water.

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove loose dirt and dust.
  2. Stain Removal: Gently wipe leather surfaces with a damp, soft cloth using mild soap.
  3. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to prevent the material from cracking.
  4. Storage: Use a shoe tree or stuff the interior with paper to help the shoes maintain their shape.
