FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for marathon running?
The Fresh Foam Evoz v4 trainers are excellent for daily training and shorter to medium distances. For marathons, runners might prefer models specifically designed for long-distance endurance, though these can certainly be used for training runs.
How do I determine the correct UK size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart, typically available online or on the product packaging. Ensure you measure your foot accurately from heel to toe.
Can I use these trainers for gym workouts?
Yes, their cushioning and support make them suitable for general gym activities and workouts. However, for very specific training like weightlifting, shoes with a flatter, more stable sole might be preferred.
What is the difference between this and the previous Evoz model?
The Evoz v4 offers even more responsive cushioning compared to its predecessor, providing an enhanced and more dynamic feel during your runs.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, these trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and typical running conditions. For wet weather, consider specific waterproof running shoes or gaiters.
How often should I replace my running trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300-500 miles (480-800 km), or when the midsole cushioning feels significantly compressed and less responsive. This depends heavily on your weight, running style, and the surfaces you run on.
Troubleshooting
Slight squeaking sound during wear
This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try wearing them for a few more sessions. If it persists, a small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help.
Laces come undone frequently
Ensure you are tying a secure knot. If the laces are particularly smooth, consider a double knot or replacing them with laces that have more grip.
Discomfort in the arch area
While the Fresh Foam X provides support, individual foot anatomy varies. Consider using aftermarket insoles designed for arch support if the standard cushioning isn't sufficient for your needs.
Reduced cushioning over time
The lifespan of cushioning depends on usage. For optimal performance, consider replacing the trainers after significant mileage or when you notice a significant decrease in responsiveness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred tightness. Ensure the flat laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets for optimal pressure distribution.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult male runners and general athletic use. They are designed primarily for road running and general fitness activities. While they offer good grip, they are not intended for rugged trail running environments.
Care: To maintain the condition of your New Balance Fresh Foam Evoz v4 trainers:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt and scuffs. For the interior, spot clean with a mild soap and water solution if necessary. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
- 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, which can alter their shape and material integrity.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent material degradation.
