FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?

The New Balance 408 trainers are designed for casual wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance athletic activities like marathon running. For such activities, specialized running shoes are recommended.

How do I know if the size is correct?

It's important to try the footwear on before returning it. The size indicated on the box or label might be a US or Euro size, which can differ from the UK size you ordered.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed from a combination of synthetic materials and textile for a balance of durability and comfort.

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While the sole offers some non-slip properties, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of rubber, providing a non-slip surface for enhanced grip.

How should I clean the trainers if they get dirty?

Use a damp cloth to wipe the upper. For more persistent marks, a mild soap and water solution can be applied sparingly, followed by air drying.

Troubleshooting

Sizing seems incorrect upon arrival.

Please check the UK size you ordered against the size marked on the box or label. Note that box/label sizes may sometimes be in US or Euro conversions.

Traction feels reduced.

Ensure the non-slip sole is clean and free from mud, dirt, or debris that could impede grip. A thorough cleaning might restore traction.

Discomfort after prolonged wear.

Ensure the laces are properly adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit. Consider wearing appropriate socks for added cushioning.
