FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the Fresh Foam X cushioning provides excellent comfort for all-day wear.

How do I clean the shoes?

Use a brush to remove dirt and wash by hand with mild soap and lukewarm water. Air dry away from heat.

Are these shoes true to size?

New Balance sizes can vary, so it is recommended to try them on for the best fit.

Can I use these shoes for road running?

While these shoes are designed for trails, you can use them for road running. But note that their primary function is for trails.

What kind of socks should I wear?

Moisture-wicking socks are recommended to keep your feet dry and comfortable.

What is the lifespan of the shoes?

The lifespan depends on usage, but with proper care, these shoes should last for hundreds of miles.

How do I care for the GORE-TEX® membrane?

Avoid harsh chemicals and regularly clean the shoes to maintain the membrane's effectiveness.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces or wearing thinner socks.

Outsole grip is not as effective.

Clean the outsole regularly to remove any mud or debris that may reduce traction.

Shoes are not waterproof.

Check for any damage to the GORE-TEX® membrane. Consider using a waterproofing spray for added protection.

Fresh Foam X midsole feels less cushioned.

Allow shoes to rest to regain their full cushioning. Replace if the midsole has lost its cushioning abilities.
