New Balance Ellipse v1 - Green/Blue

The Ellipse v1 is designed for everyday comfort and mileage. While they can be used for shorter races or training runs, they may not provide the specific level of responsiveness or support required for peak marathon performance compared to specialized racing shoes.

It is recommended to measure your foot length at the end of the day when feet are typically at their largest. Compare your measurement to the New Balance size chart. Trying them on with your usual running socks is also advisable.

No, machine washing is not recommended. It can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and upper materials. Hand wash using a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry.

The Ellipse v1's primary focus is on delivering exceptional comfort and a consistently enjoyable ride for daily runs, thanks to its specific Fresh Foam X implementation and design aimed at minimizing fatigue over regular mileage.

No, the New Balance Ellipse v1 trainers are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable materials for comfort during runs, which means they will not keep feet dry in wet conditions.

Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please refer to the point of purchase or the official New Balance website for specific warranty details applicable to your location.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. If still tight, consider if the size is correct or if the lacing needs adjustment. Loosen the laces before putting them on and re-tighten for a custom fit.

Fresh Foam X cushioning is designed for durability, but performance can be affected by extreme conditions or heavy wear. Ensure shoes are clean and dry. If significant degradation occurs, it may be time to consider replacement after extensive mileage.

This can occasionally occur due to moisture between shoe components. Try ensuring the shoes are completely dry. A small amount of talcum powder under the insole might help if the noise persists.
