FAQs

What is Fresh Foam X technology?

Fresh Foam X is an innovative cushioning foam developed by New Balance. It provides a high level of cushioning, superior comfort, and enhanced resistance to deformation, ensuring a consistent plush feel.

Are these shoes suitable for running marathons?

While the Fresh Foam 880 v7 is versatile for training and long walks, it is primarily designed as a walking shoe with robust cushioning and support. For dedicated marathon running, you might explore New Balance's specialized running shoe lines.

What does N-Durance mean?

N-Durance is a highly durable rubber compound used in the outsole of New Balance shoes. It provides increased resistance to wear and tear, especially in high-impact areas, enhancing the shoe's longevity and grip.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The suede and mesh upper offers some protection, but these trainers are not waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended, and proper drying is crucial if they get wet.

How do I determine the correct size?

It's recommended to measure your foot length and width, then consult the New Balance sizing chart. Trying them on, preferably at the end of the day when your feet are slightly swollen, can also help ensure the best fit.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The Fresh Foam X midsole provides significant underfoot cushioning, and the Walking Strike Path technology helps guide the foot's natural motion, contributing to overall foot comfort and support.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size and width. New Balance offers various widths, including 4E for extra room. Try breaking them in gradually with shorter wear periods and appropriate socks.

Reduced cushioning sensation over time

While Fresh Foam X is durable, all cushioning materials have a lifespan. Consider the age and mileage of your trainers. If significant wear is evident, replacement may be necessary for optimal support.

Slipping on certain surfaces

The N-GRIP and N-Durance technologies are designed for enhanced traction. Ensure the outsole is clean of debris (mud, gravel). Avoid extremely wet or icy conditions where no shoe can guarantee perfect grip.

Suede material appears stained or dirty

Gently clean with a soft brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap, blotting carefully. Always allow to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

There is no complex setup required for your New Balance Fresh Foam 880 v7 Trainers. Simply ensure you have selected the correct size and width for your feet. Wearing appropriate athletic socks will further enhance comfort and fit.

Compatibility

These trainers are designed for adult men seeking versatile footwear. They are compatible with a wide range of activities including general training, long-distance walking, and everyday casual use. Their classic blue colorway and suede/mesh construction make them a suitable complement to most sportswear and casual outfits.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your trainers:

  • Cleaning the Upper: The suede and mesh upper should be cleaned gently. Use a soft brush (like a suede brush) for loose dirt. For tougher spots, lightly dampen a clean cloth with mild soap and water, then gently blot the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Drying: Always allow your trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not expose them to direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
  • Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. You can use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  • Avoid Machine Washing: Do not machine wash your trainers, as this can damage the cushioning, adhesives, and overall structure.
