FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running?
The New Balance 408 trainers are designed primarily for casual wear and light activities. They offer comfort and grip for everyday use but are not specialized running shoes.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
We recommend checking the product listing or the brand's official sizing chart for accurate conversions. It is best to try the shoes on to confirm fit, as the box may show US or Euro sizes.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is made of synthetic material, offering a durable and easy-to-clean finish.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the non-slip sole offers some grip, the synthetic upper is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.
How should I clean these shoes?
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow them to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the New Balance 408 series is available in a range of colors, including grey, white/green, and silver/black, among others.
Troubleshooting
Sizing confusion (US/Euro vs. UK)
Always refer to the UK size guide provided by the retailer. Try the shoes on before removing tags to ensure correct fit before wearing them outdoors. Compare the labelled size with your known UK shoe size.
Discomfort after initial wear
New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit.
Sole appears slippery on certain surfaces
While designed with a non-slip tread, extremely smooth or wet surfaces can still pose a risk. Ensure the sole is clean and free from debris. For significantly challenging conditions, consider footwear with more aggressive tread patterns.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers come ready to wear. Ensure you try them on to confirm the fit before use. Please note that the box or label may display US or European sizing, so verify against your UK size before purchasing.
Compatibility: The New Balance 408 trainers are designed for adult use and are suitable for men and women. They pair well with casual attire such as jeans, shorts, track pants, and t-shirts.
Care: To care for your trainers, we recommend spot cleaning with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking. Allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. For the synthetic upper, a simple wipe-down is usually sufficient. The rubber sole can be cleaned with a brush to remove any dirt.
