FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Fresh Foam X midsole?

The Fresh Foam X midsole provides New Balance's most cushioned experience, offering exceptional comfort and impact absorption during wear.

Are these shoes suitable for serious trail running?

These shoes are versatile and offer good traction for off-road surfaces. However, for highly technical or extreme trail running, specialized trail running shoes with more aggressive lug patterns might be preferred. The AT Tread outsole is designed for multi-surface use.

How do I clean the synthetic upper?

Clean the synthetic upper with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush or cloth. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely.

What does the '8mm drop' mean?

The heel-to-toe drop refers to the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot of the shoe. An 8mm drop means the heel is 8mm higher than the forefoot. This is a common specification that influences running mechanics.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

Yes, the Hydrohesion rubber outsole is designed to help maintain grip in wet conditions, making them suitable for damp environments.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The shoe weighs approximately 239 grams (8.4 oz), contributing to a comfortable feel during extended wear.

What activities are these shoes best suited for?

They are well-suited for casual wear, sport, running, and multisport activities, offering a balance of comfort, performance, and traction.

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight or loose

Adjust the laces using the lace-up closure. Ensure the tongue is centered and the laces are evenly distributed for a secure but comfortable fit.

Traction feels reduced on wet surfaces

Ensure the Hydrohesion rubber outsole is clean. Over time, dirt or debris can impact grip. Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth.

Discomfort during or after wear

Verify you have the correct size and width. The 8mm drop may require a brief adjustment period if you are accustomed to zero-drop or lower-drop shoes.

Visible wear on high-use areas

The overlays are designed to enhance durability, but excessive wear may indicate specific usage patterns. Continue to follow care instructions to maximize lifespan.

Care: To maintain the performance and appearance of your trainers:
