FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 408 series is designed primarily for lifestyle and casual use rather than specialized long-distance running.
How do I ensure I choose the right size?
New Balance sizing is generally consistent, but it is recommended to measure your feet in the afternoon when they are at their largest.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
No, it is highly recommended to avoid the washing machine as it can damage the materials and the adhesive.
Is the white material hard to keep clean?
White trainers require proactive care. It is advised to use a fabric-safe stain repellent spray before first use to add a layer of protection.
What kind of socks should I wear with these?
Athletic crew or low-cut socks made from moisture-wicking materials are ideal for maximum comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight initially
Adjust the lacing system to distribute pressure more evenly across the top of the foot.
Accumulation of dust or surface marks
Use a specialized sneaker cleaning wipe or a soft, damp microfiber cloth to gently buff out marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your New Balance 408 Trainers, ensure the fit is snug but not constricting across the midfoot. Because these shoes feature a primarily white finish, regular care is essential to maintain their appearance. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface debris after wear. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the materials and structural adhesives. Always store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to preserve the foam midsole.
