FAQs
What makes the cushioning technology in the 1080v15 different?
The 1080v15 features an all-new cushioning compound designed to offer improved durability, enhanced energy return, and a consistent level of comfort over longer distances compared to previous models.
Is this shoe suitable for wide feet?
While specific width options are not detailed here, New Balance typically offers various width fittings for their popular models. Check product availability for wide (2E) or extra-wide (4E) options if needed.
How does the TCS London Marathon edition differ from the standard 1080v15?
The TCS London Marathon edition features specific official branding and color accents related to the event. The core performance and cushioning technology remain the same as the standard 1080v15.
Can I wear these for gym workouts?
Yes, they can be used for general gym activities and cross-training. However, for activities requiring significant lateral support, like court sports, dedicated trainers would be more appropriate.
What is the expected lifespan of these trainers?
With proper care and use for running, most runners find that running shoes like the 1080v15 maintain optimal performance for approximately 300-500 miles (480-800 km).
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, these trainers are designed for breathability and are not waterproof. They are suitable for dry conditions or light rain, but not for running in heavy downpours or through puddles.
Troubleshooting
Slightly tight fit on first wear
New shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter runs initially, or try them around the house to allow the materials to adapt to your foot shape.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
Cushioning can degrade with heavy use. Ensure you are cleaning and drying the shoes properly. If the shoe has over 500 miles of use, consider replacement for optimal performance.
Discoloration of green/pink elements
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when storing or drying. Clean with a damp cloth rather than harsh chemicals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. For the TCS London Marathon edition, no special setup is required; simply lace them up and go.
Compatibility: Designed as running shoes, they are best suited for road running, treadmills, and general fitness activities. They are not intended for aggressive trail running or sports requiring lateral stability.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or drying, as this can damage the materials and cushioning.
- Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with paper towels can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
