Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your leather New Balance 204L trainers, regular maintenance is recommended. Avoid machine washing, as the leather material can be damaged by water saturation and intense heat. Instead, wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt or use a leather-specific cleaner for deeper stains. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and leather cracking. Use a protective spray designed for leather to improve moisture and stain resistance if wearing the shoes in variable weather conditions.
