FAQs

Are the New Balance Ellipse trainers suitable for marathons?

Yes, the Fresh Foam X cushioning provides enough support for long-distance training and racing for many runners.

How often should I replace these trainers?

It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running gait and surface.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

These trainers are designed for breathability and are not specifically treated for water resistance.

Can I use custom orthotics with the Ellipse?

The insoles are removable, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.

What is the primary surface for this shoe?

The Ellipse is designed primarily for road running and other hard, flat surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure on the top of the foot

Loosen the lacing near the eyelets where the pressure is felt or try a different lacing pattern to relieve tension.

Rapid wear on the outsole

Ensure you are primarily using these trainers on intended road surfaces rather than abrasive tracks or rocky trails.

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Use the final 'runner's loop' eyelet to tighten the heel lock and prevent slippage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best experience with your New Balance Ellipse trainers, begin by ensuring you have selected the correct UK size 8.5, as proper lockdown is essential for injury prevention. When putting them on, ensure the tongue is centered and laces are tightened evenly to distribute pressure across the bridge of the foot. For care, avoid machine washing or drying, as this can degrade the foam density. Instead, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes get wet internally, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with newspaper to draw out moisture in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources.
