FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
This specific model is listed as a standard width. For wider feet, it is recommended to check for available wide (2E) or extra-wide (4E) options if offered by New Balance for this series.
How do I know if the UK 6.5 size is right for me?
It is recommended to measure your foot and compare it to New Balance's sizing chart. Trying them on in-store or ensuring a good return policy is advised for online purchases.
Can I wear these shoes for trail running?
While the GORE-TEX® and cushioning are beneficial, these are primarily designed as road running shoes. They can handle light, well-maintained trails but may lack the aggressive tread and robust protection needed for technical off-road terrain.
What is the main benefit of the Fresh Foam X midsole?
The Fresh Foam X midsole provides a superior combination of softness and responsiveness, offering a comfortable and energetic ride with excellent shock absorption.
How durable is the nylon upper?
The nylon upper is chosen for its balance of durability and lightweight comfort, designed to withstand regular running use while remaining breathable.
Do I need to break in these shoes?
The Fresh Foam X Evoz v4 is designed for comfort straight out of the box. While some users prefer a short break-in period, they typically feel comfortable from the first wear.
What does 'medial stability' mean?
Medial stability refers to features within the shoe designed to support the arch and help control the inward rolling motion of the foot (pronation) during the gait cycle, promoting a more stable stride.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight after wearing for a while
Ensure laces are not tied too tightly. The materials may also stretch slightly with wear, providing more comfort over time.
Water seeping through despite GORE-TEX®
Check for any tears or damage to the GORE-TEX® membrane. Ensure the tongue is properly positioned to seal out water. Prolonged submersion may eventually lead to some dampness.
Reduced cushioning feel over time
The Fresh Foam X midsole may compress slightly with extensive use. Consider rotating with another pair of shoes to extend the lifespan and effectiveness of the cushioning.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
Ensure the outsole is clean. If wear is evident on the tread, the shoes may need replacement for optimal traction.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Clean the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Always air dry shoes at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources such as radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing shoes with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Washing Machine: It is generally not recommended to machine wash trainers as it can damage the adhesives and materials. Hand washing is the preferred method.
