FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for flat feet?
The Ellipse features a neutral design that works for many foot shapes, though those with specific pronation issues may want to use their own orthotic inserts.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While excellent for running and treadmill work, the high-stack cushioning makes them less stable for heavy weightlifting sessions.
What does the UK size 5 fit like?
The New Balance Ellipse follows standard adult sizing; it is recommended to have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
Is the material waterproof?
No, the polyester mesh is designed for breathability. It will not keep feet dry in rainy conditions.
How often should I replace these?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles depending on your gait, weight, and the running surface.
Is Fresh Foam X firm or soft?
Fresh Foam X is engineered to be plush and soft, prioritizing impact absorption and comfort over extreme rigidity.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to better secure the heel collar to your foot.
Accumulation of dust and dirt in the mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove dry debris from the polyester mesh upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance Ellipse trainers, avoid machine washing, which can degrade the Fresh Foam X integrity. Instead, wipe the polyester surface with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt. Ensure you air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, as high temperatures can warp the midsole foam. For optimal performance, check the outsole for wear every 300 to 500 miles and replace them if you notice significant loss of tread or structural foam collapse.
