FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The New Balance U408 6LR trainers are designed for casual wear and light athletic activities. They may not provide the specialized support and cushioning required for long-distance running like marathons.

How do I determine my correct UK size?

Refer to the product sizing chart or measure your foot from heel to toe. Compare your measurement to the UK sizing guide provided by New Balance.

Can I machine wash these trainers?

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the materials and construction of the shoe. Hand clean using a damp cloth and mild soap.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed using a combination of leather for structure and durability, and mesh for breathability.

Are these trainers waterproof?

These trainers are not designed to be waterproof. The mesh panels allow for breathability but will not prevent water from entering.

What is the main color of this specific model?

This specific model (U408 6LR) features a primary grey color scheme with white and black accents, and subtle silver metallic leather details.

Can I wear these with athletic socks?

Yes, these trainers are designed to be worn comfortably with standard athletic socks for added comfort and performance.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming untied frequently

Try a different knotting technique for your laces, or consider replacing them with textured laces that offer more grip.

Discomfort on the sides of the feet

Ensure the laces are adjusted properly. If discomfort persists, the shoes may not be the right fit for your foot shape. Consider thicker socks for added cushioning.

Leather scuffs or marks

Use a leather cleaner or a slightly damp cloth to gently remove marks. For persistent scuffs, a leather conditioner can help restore the finish.

Slight odor after wear

Allow shoes to air out completely between wears. Using odor-absorbing insoles or a shoe deodorizer spray can help manage odors.
