New Balance Ellipse Trainers - Black - UK 10.5

The Ellipse is ideal for neutral runners who prioritize comfort and a responsive feel for their daily training, road work, or general fitness activities.

While they offer excellent comfort for daily miles, for marathon distances, runners might prefer a shoe specifically designed with extended long-distance support and cushioning. However, they can be used for shorter long runs.

No, the New Balance Ellipse trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable materials for comfort during exercise, making them suitable for dry conditions or light rain.

Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. The heel should feel secure without slipping, and the midfoot should feel snug but not tight.

The Ellipse v1 typically represents an updated version with minor refinements to cushioning, upper materials, or outsole design for enhanced performance or comfort based on user feedback and technological advancements.

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, as it can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and upper materials. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.

This can sometimes occur with new cushioning. Try walking on different surfaces or perform a few dynamic stretches to loosen the sole. Ensure there is no debris trapped in the sole.

While Fresh Foam X is durable, its properties can diminish with extensive use. Consider cleaning the shoes as per care instructions. If the issue persists after significant mileage (typically 300-500 miles), it may be time to consider replacement.

The arch support in these trainers is designed for neutral runners. If you require more specific arch support, consider using aftermarket insoles designed for your foot type.
