FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are designed for general training and may not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for long-distance running like marathons. For marathon running, dedicated running shoes are recommended.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Ensure you are wearing the type of socks you typically train in. Lace up the trainers snugly but not too tightly, ensuring there is a comfortable amount of space in the toe box. The heel should feel secure without slipping.
Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers. Machine washing can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the shoe. Hand cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method.
What is the primary benefit of the Fresh Foam midsole?
The Fresh Foam midsole provides lightweight, soft cushioning that helps absorb impact and offers a responsive feel, enhancing comfort during training activities.
What activities are these trainers best suited for?
These trainers are best suited for general fitness training, gym workouts, cross-training, and everyday wear. They offer good grip and cushioning for a variety of moderate activities.
Does the blue color have any variations?
The specific product listed is a solid blue. However, New Balance often releases trainers in various colorways and combinations. Please check other listings for potential variations.
What is the return policy if the size is incorrect?
Return policies are typically set by the retailer. Please refer to the specific retailer's return policy for information on exchanges or returns due to incorrect sizing.
Troubleshooting
Slight stiffness upon first wear
This is normal for new trainers. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your foot shape.
Traction feels reduced on certain surfaces
Ensure the textured outsole is clean and free from debris. Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth if necessary.
Discomfort around the ankle area
Check lace tension for a more precise fit. Ensure socks are worn correctly and do not bunch up. The padded collar should provide comfort, so readjusting the fit might resolve irritation.
Midsole feels too firm or too soft
The Fresh Foam midsole is designed for a balance of cushioning and responsiveness. If the feel is not to your preference, consider if the trainers are being used for activities beyond their intended general training purpose.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Using a shoe tree can help maintain their shape.
