Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 204L shoes remain in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather surface with a damp, soft cloth to remove surface dirt. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Protection: Apply a leather-specific protector spray before the first use to shield the material from stains and moisture.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the leather over time.
- Insoles: If you require custom orthotics, the stock insoles can typically be removed to accommodate them comfortably.
