Product Information
Full details
The New Balance Fresh Foam trainers are ideal for active adults seeking a blend of durability and comfort for daily running or casual movement. Featuring the signature Fresh Foam midsole, these shoes offer a lightweight, cushioned ride, though users requiring heavy-duty trail protection may find the mesh upper less resilient than rugged hiking footwear. Built with a focus on breathability and adaptive fit, they represent a versatile choice for gym-goers and recreational runners alike.

FAQs
Can I replace the original insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable and compatible with most custom orthotic inserts.
Are these shoes machine washable?
No, machine washing can damage the foam and mesh structure. Hand cleaning is recommended.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from breathable, engineered polyester mesh.
Are these trainers suitable for long-distance running?
They are designed for daily activity and comfort, making them excellent for training runs, though performance may vary based on personal preference and terrain.
How do I ensure the best fit?
We recommend trying on the shoes at the end of the day when your feet are at their largest to ensure a comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Insole slipping or moving inside the shoe
Remove the insole, ensure the interior floor of the shoe is clean and dry, then press the insole firmly back into place.
Material appears dusty or dirty
Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt, followed by a light wipe with a damp cloth; avoid soaking the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting started with your New Balance trainers is straightforward. Ensure a proper fit by testing them with the socks you plan to use for your activities. If you require specialized support, simply remove the factory insole and insert your custom orthotic device. To care for your trainers, avoid machine washing or drying. Instead, wipe the polyester mesh with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to maintain the structural integrity of the foam and the mesh fabric.
