FAQs

Can I replace the original insoles with my own orthotics?

Yes, these trainers feature removable insoles specifically designed to be compatible with aftermarket orthotics.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?

They are ideal for daily training and mid-distance runs. For long-distance marathon racing, ensure the shoe fits your specific gait requirements.

How do I clean the black mesh material?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt, then gently wipe with a damp cloth using mild detergent. Air dry at room temperature.

Are these trainers waterproof?

No, they are made with breathable polyester mesh, which is designed for airflow and is not water-resistant.

What is the weight of these shoes?

The trainers weigh approximately 271.7 grams, providing a lightweight feel for runners.

Troubleshooting

Insole sliding or bunching during use

Ensure the insole is seated correctly in the heel cup; if the issue persists, use a small amount of double-sided fabric tape to secure it.

Odour buildup in the mesh

Remove the insoles to air out separately and use a specialized athletic shoe deodorizer spray inside the shoe.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior underfoot cushioning from Fresh Foam technology
  • Lightweight design helps maintain pace without unnecessary bulk
  • Highly breathable upper material prevents overheating
  • Orthotic-friendly with removable insole functionality

Cons

  • Best suited for paved surfaces rather than rugged trails
  • Polyester mesh may show dirt more easily than darker synthetic materials
  • Limited to neutral support profiles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your New Balance Fresh Foam Trainers last, remove the stock insoles carefully if you intend to insert medical-grade orthotics. For cleaning, wipe down the polyester mesh with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap; avoid fully submerging the trainers in water or using harsh chemicals that might degrade the foam bonding. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can cause the mesh to warp or the glue to loosen.
