FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports?

The New Balance 408v1 trainers are designed primarily for everyday comfort and leisure wear. While they offer support, they are not specifically built for high-impact sports.

How should I clean these trainers?

To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and marks. For more stubborn stains, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth. Always allow the trainers to air dry completely.

What is the best way to ensure a proper fit?

It is recommended to try the trainers on before purchasing, if possible. Ensure there is a small amount of space between the longest toe and the front of the shoe, and that the heel does not slip excessively when walking.

What age group are these trainers intended for?

These trainers are designed for kids, with a specific focus on younger children based on the provided size information (e.g., UK children's sizes).

Can these trainers be worn in wet conditions?

While the materials offer some durability, these trainers are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry or moderately damp conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or puddles.

What is the primary benefit of the cushioned footbed?

The cushioned footbed provides enhanced comfort and shock absorption, supporting active movement and making them comfortable for extended periods of wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the laces to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected.

Dirt or stains on the trainers.

Gently clean with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use mild soap and water, then wipe clean. Allow to air dry.

Sole appears to be separating slightly.

Check for any debris caught in the sole. Minor separation can sometimes be addressed by ensuring the shoe is clean and dry. For significant issues, contact customer support.
