FAQs
Are the New Balance Ellipse v1 trainers suitable for wide feet?
The standard construction provides a balanced fit for average foot widths, but if you have specific sizing requirements, we recommend comparing your UK size with a local fitment test.
Can I put my Ellipse v1 trainers in the dryer?
No. Never put these shoes in a dryer, as high heat can degrade the Fresh Foam X cushioning and deform the upper materials.
How often should I replace these running shoes?
General performance guidelines suggest replacing your trainers every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and intensity.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is constructed from high-quality, breathable polyester, designed to keep your feet cool and comfortable during movement.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Ellipse v1 is designed for breathability. While the polyester material can handle light moisture, it is not considered waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels unstable inside the shoe
Adjust the lacing pattern to lock in the heel, or consider a runner's loop (heel lock) to improve stability.
Visible wear on the outsole after minimal use
Ensure you are using the shoes primarily on recommended running surfaces such as road or track, avoiding abrasive gravel or rocky trails.
Upper material holds odors
Remove the insoles after each run to air them out and store the shoes in a dry, cool environment to prevent moisture buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Ellipse v1 trainers last, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. For the initial fit, ensure you have approximately a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during runs.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush after your run.
- Washing: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water if necessary; avoid the washing machine as it can compromise the structural integrity of the foam.
- Drying: Air dry only in a well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause the material to warp.
