FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday walking?
Yes, their impact protection and flexible design make them comfortable for long periods of walking.
How should I clean the suede?
Use a dry suede brush to remove dust. Do not use water or standard household soaps as they can ruin the material.
Do these trainers fit true to size?
The New Balance Numeric series generally follows standard sizing, though the internal cushioning may make them feel snug initially.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended, as moisture can damage the suede texture and compromise the bond of the materials.
What makes the 808L special for skating?
They feature targeted impact protection and reinforced suede panels specifically designed to endure the wear caused by skateboard griptape.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
This is normal for high-performance suede trainers; wear them for short durations to allow the material to flex and adapt to your foot shape.
Visible scuffs on suede
Use a suede-specific brush to lift the nap and restore the texture, or use a suede eraser for surface-level marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trainers, avoid exposing them to harsh weather conditions or excessive moisture, as this can degrade the suede finish. For cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and a specialized suede eraser for persistent spots; avoid machine washing or soaking the shoes. Ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a snug fit across the midfoot before skating to prevent unnecessary shifting. Store the shoes in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
