Full details

FAQs

What makes the Fresh Foam X midsole special?

The Fresh Foam X midsole is engineered by New Balance to provide a premium, ultra-soft, and lightweight cushioning experience, designed for comfort during extended wear.

Are these trainers suitable for running?

These trainers are designed primarily for all-day wear and casual use, offering comfort and style. While they provide cushioning, they are not specialized running shoes and may not offer the specific support or durability required for intense running.

How do I clean mud or dirt from the mesh?

Use a soft brush or a damp cloth to gently remove dirt. For stubborn stains, a mild soap diluted in water can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Always air dry.

What does the 'CAYL' in the product name signify?

CAYL is a South Korean brand that has collaborated with New Balance on this specific trainer model, bringing its unique design perspective to the silhouette.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

It is not recommended to put these trainers in a washing machine, as the harsh cycles and detergents can damage the materials, cushioning, and adhesives.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper primarily consists of open-holed ripstop mesh with synthetic overlays.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, the ripstop mesh upper is breathable and not designed to be waterproof. They will offer some protection against light splashes but are not suitable for wet conditions.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. Try wearing them with different types of socks. The materials may also need a short break-in period.

Mesh upper shows signs of wear or snagging

Be mindful of rough surfaces. Gently brush away debris. For minor snags, carefully trim any loose threads with small scissors, avoiding further damage to the fabric.

Difficulty removing insoles

Gently pull the insole upwards from the heel. If it's stuck, try slightly flexing the shoe or using a thin, flat object (like a credit card) to carefully loosen the edges.

Compatibility: Designed as unisex footwear, they are compatible with a wide range of casual wear. They pair well with jeans, shorts, and athleisure attire.

Care:

  1. Cleaning the Upper: Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to gently clean the ripstop mesh and synthetic overlays. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Midsole Care: Wipe the Fresh Foam X midsole with a damp cloth. Do not submerge in water.
