FAQs
What makes the 1080v15 different from previous models?
The 1080v15 features an all-new cushioning technology for enhanced comfort and energy return, along with a completely redesigned aesthetic.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
While the standard fit is designed to be accommodating, New Balance often offers various widths for their popular models. Check availability for wide or extra-wide options if needed.
How do I know if I have the right size?
There should be about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe. Ensure the heel doesn't slip and there's no pinching or excessive pressure on the sides or top of your foot.
Can I use these for marathon racing?
Yes, the enhanced cushioning and energy return make them suitable for marathon training and racing for many runners, offering a blend of comfort and performance over long distances.
What is the primary material used in the upper?
The upper primarily utilizes Nylon and Synthetic materials, designed for breathability and a comfortable fit.
How often should I replace my 1080v15 trainers?
Running shoes typically need replacement every 300-500 miles (480-800 km) or when you notice significant wear on the outsole or a loss of cushioning and support.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are not designed to be waterproof. They are breathable and suitable for running in various conditions, but not for heavy rain or wet environments where waterproofing is required.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort or rubbing in specific areas.
Ensure you have the correct size and width. If the issue persists, consider using anti-blister socks or consulting a specialist for potential fit adjustments or alternative models.
Cushioning feels too soft or too firm.
This can be subjective and depend on personal preference and running style. Break them in with shorter runs first. If still not ideal, they may not be the best match for your specific needs.
Reduced grip on wet surfaces.
While designed for road running, traction on very wet or slick surfaces may be limited. Exercise caution during wet conditions and consider shoes with aggressive tread patterns for such situations.
Upper material shows premature wear.
Ensure the shoes are being used for their intended purpose (running) and not for activities that could cause undue stress on the upper. Clean them regularly as per care instructions.

Care Instructions
- Cleaning: Spot clean with a mild detergent and a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing, as this can damage the shoe's structure and materials.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
