Can I use these for trail running?
These are designed for road and gym use. For technical trails, we recommend looking at New Balance models with specialized outsoles.

Is this model suitable for long-distance running?
They provide great comfort for moderate distances and daily training, but professional marathoners may prefer more specific high-mileage models.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping or instability during activity
Re-lace the trainers using the top eyelet to create a 'heel lock' which secures the foot more firmly in the shoe.
Excessive moisture or sweat buildup
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking socks and remove the insole after intense exercise to allow the interior to dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Fresh Foam 680 v9 trainers last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt. For spot cleaning, apply a mild soap with a damp cloth; avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a washing machine.
- Air Drying: Always air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers, which can warp the material or damage the cushioning foam.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
- Compatibility: These trainers are standard road shoes. If you require custom orthotics, ensure you remove the factory insole first to maintain the correct internal volume.
