Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 204L shoes, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of leather, avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes in water, as this can damage the material and affect the adhesive bonds. Instead, wipe away surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth and use a dedicated leather cleaner for stubborn marks. Keep the shoes away from direct high-heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking. Compatibility is standard for most adult foot shapes; ensure you choose the correct UK sizing, as the 204L series follows a traditional fit that provides a secure, locked-in feel.
