FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the New Balance 520v9 generally fits true to size. If you prefer extra room for running socks or have wider feet, some users suggest a half-size up.

Can I use these for marathon training?

These are excellent for daily training and shorter to mid-distance runs. For dedicated long-distance marathon training, you may prefer a higher-tier performance model.

Is the Fresh Foam midsole washable?

Do not put the shoes in the washing machine, as high temperatures and detergents can degrade the foam properties and adhesive bonds.

Are these suitable for gym workouts?

They are great for cardio-based gym workouts and treadmill sessions, though they may be less stable than specialized lifting shoes for heavy weightlifting.

How often should I replace them?

As a general rule for running sneakers, it is recommended to replace them every 300 to 500 miles, depending on the intensity of use and surface conditions.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Adjust the lacing technique; try a 'window lacing' pattern to relieve tension on the top of the bridge.

Slipping inside the shoe during runs

Ensure you are using the top eyelet to create a 'heel lock' or 'runner's loop' for improved ankle stability.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent underfoot comfort provided by Fresh Foam cushioning
  • Highly breathable mesh design keeps feet cool during workouts
  • Versatile aesthetic suitable for gym, running, and casual use
  • Durable rubber outsole provides confidence on pavement

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme off-road or technical trail use
  • Limited color availability in this specific series
  • May require a break-in period for optimal arch comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your 520v9 trainers last, always use the lace-up system to achieve a snug lockdown rather than slipping them on with the laces tied.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe away loose dirt with a soft brush after use. For deeper stains, use a mild soap and a damp cloth; avoid submerging in water or using a washing machine.
  • Drying: Air dry only in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight or high-heat sources like radiators, which can warp the foam cushioning.
  • Storage: Keep in a well-ventilated space to prevent odor buildup and moisture retention in the mesh upper.
