FAQs
What is the primary benefit of Fresh Foam X?
Fresh Foam X provides a softer, more energetic, and more cushioned ride compared to traditional foam compounds.
Can I use these shoes for gym workouts?
While primarily designed for running, the support is sufficient for light gym activities, though they are optimized for forward motion.
How do I determine my size for the Ellipse v1?
The sizes provided are in UK adult male sizing. It is recommended to choose your standard running shoe size, as the fit is true to size.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive and structural foam components. Stick to hand cleaning with a damp cloth.
What is the difference between the Polyester and Nylon versions?
The primary difference is the upper material construction, which may affect breathability and flexibility slightly depending on the specific model.
How often should I replace these running shoes?
It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and body weight.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability
Ensure the laces are tied securely using a runner's loop if necessary; check that the insole is properly seated inside the shoe.
Foam feels flat or less responsive
Allow at least 24 hours between runs for the Fresh Foam X to return to its original shape and bounce.
Upper material irritation
Ensure the tongue is centered and not bunched under the laces, which can cause pressure points on the top of the foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Ellipse v1 trainers, ensure you have selected the appropriate UK size for your foot, noting that materials can vary between Polyester and Nylon across the v1 series.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush after every run. Clean with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging the shoes in water.
- Drying: Air dry only. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can warp the foam and degrade the polyester fibers.
- Maintenance: Rotate your shoes with another pair to allow the foam to decompress fully between runs, extending the lifespan of the cushioning.
