Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on cream fabric
Use a dry soft-bristled brush to gently lift dirt, then follow with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
Uncomfortable fit after long periods
Ensure your laces are properly adjusted to allow for natural foot swelling during the day, or consider an aftermarket insole for specific arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 408v1 trainers remain in optimal condition, consider the following maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: For the Cream-colored variant, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, apply a mild detergent or a specialized footwear cleaner with a damp cloth; avoid total submersion in water.
- Drying: Always air dry your trainers at room temperature. Keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as these can warp the materials and degrade the foam.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry area. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods to prevent material fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers fit true to standard adult sizing, though it is recommended to wear them with moisture-wicking socks to maximize the benefits of the breathable upper.
