FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running marathons?
These trainers are designed for comfort-focused performance and daily wear. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specifically engineered for high-impact, long-distance running like marathon training. For such activities, specialized running shoes are recommended.
What is the main advantage of the ABZORB midsole?
The ABZORB midsole is engineered to provide a combination of cushioning and compression resistance. This means it effectively absorbs impact forces and helps to reduce the shock experienced by your feet and legs during activity.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
The textile construction offers some breathability but is not fully waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions. For heavy rain, waterproof footwear is advised.
How do I know if the UK Men's size 6 is the right fit for me?
A UK Men's size 6 generally fits individuals with a foot length of approximately 25 cm. It's recommended to measure your foot and compare it to New Balance's official sizing chart, or try them on if possible, to ensure an accurate fit.
What does the 'Textile' in the product name refer to?
The 'Textile' designation indicates that the primary upper material of the trainer is made from fabric-based materials, contributing to breathability and a lighter feel.
Is this model available in other colours?
This guide specifically covers the Woodland and Stoneware (Brown/Grey) colourway. Availability of other colours may vary depending on the retailer and current stock.
Troubleshooting
Sizing feels slightly off.
Ensure you are using the correct sizing chart. If the fit is too snug, consider wearing thinner socks. If too loose, try using insoles or thicker socks. Note that new shoes may require a short break-in period.
Reduced cushioning effect over time.
The ABZORB midsole may lose some of its responsiveness after extensive use. Regular cleaning and avoiding extreme conditions can help prolong its effectiveness.
Discoloration or material wear.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean the trainers promptly after exposure to mud or significant dirt.
