FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for high-intensity interval training?
While they are comfortable for general fitness, they are best suited for running and walking. For intense lateral movements, a shoe with more rigid sidewall support might be preferable.
Can I remove the insoles to use my own orthotics?
Yes, the insoles in the Fresh Foam Aris are removable, making them compatible with most custom or aftermarket orthotic inserts.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, they feature a breathable mesh-style upper designed for airflow, which means they are not waterproof.
How should I choose my size?
These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing. If you have worn New Balance before, we recommend sticking with your usual size.
Can these be used for long-distance running?
They are designed to be quite versatile, making them a good option for light to moderate distance running. For marathon-level distances, personal preference regarding support will vary.
Troubleshooting
Foot slipping inside the shoe
Try the 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel more firmly in the collar.
Visible dirt or stains on the upper
Spot clean with a gentle foam cleanser or a mixture of mild soap and water using a soft toothbrush.
Midsole feeling less responsive
Ensure the shoe is fully dry and check that the insole is properly seated flat against the bottom of the footbed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Wear them around the house for a few hours before committing to long runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot.
- Cleaning: Do not machine wash. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud, and wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can deform the midsole foam over time.
- Air Drying: Always let your shoes air dry naturally by removing the insoles and letting them sit in a ventilated area.
