FAQs
What materials are the 204L trainers made from?
The 204L trainers are crafted primarily from leather, with synthetic and mesh materials used for accents and structure.
Are these trainers suitable for running?

How should I clean the white and pink trainers?
Clean the leather parts with a damp cloth and mild soap, and wipe mesh/synthetic parts with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or soaking. Allow to air dry.
What is the fit like for the 204L?

Troubleshooting
Sizing feels incorrect
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure feet are measured properly, considering socks typically worn with trainers. If still unsure, consider trying on a pair in-store or reviewing customer feedback on fit.
Discoloration on leather
For minor marks, try cleaning gently with a damp cloth. For more persistent stains, use a specialized leather cleaner suitable for white leather. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces become dirty
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild detergent and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing the trainers.
