FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
They are ideal for light jogging, walking, and general fitness activities, but are optimized for versatility rather than high-performance long-distance marathon running.
How do I determine my size?
New Balance sizing typically runs consistent with standard athletic shoe sizing. Ensure you check your UK size based on your most comfortable pair of trainers.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash your trainers as it can damage the materials, especially if they are suede or leather.
Are these trainers good for people with flat feet?
The Fresh Foam cushioning offers good support, but if you require custom orthotics, ensure the insole is removable to accommodate them.
What is the primary difference between the v4 and previous versions?
The v4 version features refined styling and updated Fresh Foam technology to provide a softer, more responsive ride compared to its predecessors.
Troubleshooting
The foam midsole feels less cushioned over time
Like all foam-based trainers, cushioning can compress with heavy use. Ensure you are rotating your shoes to allow the foam to decompress between uses.
Shoes have become dirty or stained
Use a damp cloth and mild detergent for synthetic parts. For suede or leather, use a professional-grade cleaner specifically formulated for those materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these are ready-to-wear trainers, no specific setup is required beyond ensuring a proper fit for your size. To maintain your New Balance Arishi v4 trainers, it is essential to follow specific cleaning guidelines based on the material. For suede or leather variants, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a specialized leather or suede cleaner. Avoid soaking the shoes in water, as this can damage the materials and the adhesive. Ensure they are air-dried away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the foam or crack the leather. Regularly untie the laces when putting them on to maintain the structural integrity of the heel collar.
