FAQs
Is the 1080v15 suitable for wide feet?
New Balance often provides width options for its series; check the specific product listing to see if your required size/width is available.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While they are excellent for treadmill runs, their high stack height may feel less stable for heavy lateral movements or weightlifting.
How long should these trainers last?
Generally, running shoes offer optimal support and cushioning for 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
What does the 1080v15 weigh?
Weight varies by size, but it is engineered to be lightweight despite its significant cushioning.
Is the upper breathable?
Yes, the materials are designed to facilitate airflow and keep feet cool during training.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slippage in the heel
Try the 'runner's loop' or 'lock lacing' technique to secure the ankle collar more firmly.
Foam feels stiff in cold temperatures
This is normal for foam materials; allow the shoes to warm up naturally by walking in them for a few minutes before starting your run.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 1080v15, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps.
- Fitting: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the front of the toe box for comfort during swelling associated with long runs.
- Break-in: While comfortable out of the box, walk in them for a day to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. Clean using a damp cloth and mild soap; never submerge the shoes in water or place them in a washing machine.
- Storage: Keep your trainers in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent foam degradation and material warping.
- Air Dry: If the shoes become wet, remove the insoles and air dry them naturally at room temperature. Avoid heat sources like radiators, which can damage the cushioning.
