FAQs
What type of activities are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for everyday wear, walking, and light training activities. The Fresh Foam midsole provides comfort for extended periods of standing or moderate movement.
How do I clean my New Balance 680 trainers?
Wipe the trainers clean with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What is the primary cushioning technology used?
The trainers feature New Balance's Fresh Foam midsole, designed to provide a lightweight and cushioned feel.
Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?
While they offer good cushioning, they are primarily designed for everyday wear and light training. For serious long-distance running, specialized running shoes might offer more advanced features and support.
What does the textured grip sole offer?
The textured grip sole is designed to provide reliable traction on various surfaces, enhancing stability during wear.
Can I replace the sockliner?
The trainers come with a moulded sockliner for extra support. While not designed for easy removal and replacement, some users may find space for a custom orthotic if needed, though this may affect the intended fit.
Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or too loose
Adjust the lacing system. For a tighter fit, ensure laces are evenly distributed and pulled snug. For a looser fit, ease the tension on the laces, particularly across the forefoot.
Reduced grip on surfaces
Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that may be affecting traction.
Discomfort during wear
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If discomfort persists, consider if the size is correct or if the shoe's fit profile suits your foot shape. Use the moulded sockliner for added support.
