FAQs
Are these trainers true to size?
Yes, New Balance 408 trainers generally follow standard adult sizing conventions. We recommend ordering your usual footwear size.
Can these be used for long-distance running?
While supportive for light movement and walking, these are designed as lifestyle trainers rather than dedicated high-mileage performance running shoes.
How do I keep the white parts looking clean?
Use a damp cloth with mild detergent to spot-clean any visible dirt immediately after it appears.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the materials and glue. Hand-cleaning is recommended to maintain the shoe's longevity.
What is the primary material used?
The 408 features a durable mix of synthetic and textile materials designed for comfort and breathability.
Troubleshooting
Trainer feels too snug during initial wear
Loosen the lacing system starting from the eyelets closest to the toe box to allow for more natural foot expansion.
Visible scuffs on the silver detailing
Gently buff the scuff with a clean, dry microfiber cloth or a specialized sneaker eraser to remove surface marks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 408 trainers last, proper care is essential. Since the upper features a light colourway, consider using a sneaker-safe water and stain repellent spray upon arrival to protect against daily grime. For maintenance, clean the outsoles with a soft brush and mild soap; avoid submerging the trainers in water or using a washing machine, as this may compromise the structural integrity of the cushioning and adhesives. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material discoloration.
