FAQs

What type of running are these trainers best suited for?

The New Balance TFOAM 100 trainers are best suited for road running and general training activities, offering a balance of cushioning and responsiveness.

How should I clean the suede and leather parts of the shoe?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt from suede. For leather and mesh, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap is recommended. Always allow to air dry.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the trainers are not waterproof. They are designed for breathability and athletic performance, and the materials used are not inherently waterproof.

What does 'Tech Foam' technology refer to?

Tech Foam is New Balance's proprietary technology designed to provide enhanced cushioning, energy return, and a responsive feel during athletic activities.

Can I wear these trainers for hiking?

While the outsole provides good grip, these trainers are optimized for road running and training. They may not offer the necessary ankle support or ruggedness for challenging hiking trails.

How do the hollowed rubber outsoles benefit performance?

The hollowed design contributes to the overall lightweight feel of the shoe while maintaining durability and providing reliable traction on various surfaces.

What is the main difference between the TFOAM series and other New Balance trainers?

The TFOAM series, including the TFOAM 100, specifically highlights New Balance's Tech Foam technology combined with FuelCell cushioning for a modern, performance-driven feel and futuristic design.

Troubleshooting

Uneven wear on the outsole.

Ensure you are using the correct size and fit. Uneven wear can sometimes be related to gait; consult a specialist if concerns persist. Clean outsoles regularly to maintain grip.

Discomfort or rubbing during wear.

Verify the shoe size is correct. Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for shorter periods initially. Ensure socks are appropriate and do not bunch up.

Loss of cushioning responsiveness over time.

Regular cleaning and proper storage can help maintain cushioning. Cushioning naturally degrades with extensive use; consider replacement after significant mileage.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: For the mesh, suede, and leather upper, use a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
  • Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and damage.
