FAQs
What kind of running are these shoes best for?
The Fresh Foam X More v5 is best for road running, specifically long distances and everyday training runs where plush cushioning and comfort are your top priorities.
Are these shoes suitable for walking?
While designed for running, their exceptional cushioning makes them very comfortable for walking and casual wear, especially if you spend a lot of time on your feet.
What does 'Fresh Foam X' mean?
Fresh Foam X is New Balance's most cushioned and softest foam technology, designed to deliver maximum comfort and impact absorption for a smooth, protective ride.
How do I determine my correct size?
It is recommended to measure your feet and consult New Balance's official sizing chart. Many runners go up a half size in running shoes compared to their regular shoes to accommodate foot swelling during activity. Try them on in the afternoon when your feet are slightly larger.
Can I use these shoes for trail running?
No, these shoes are not recommended for trail running. Their outsole pattern and cushioning are optimized for smooth, paved surfaces and may not provide adequate grip or stability on uneven, rocky, or muddy trails.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
These shoes feature a 4mm heel-to-toe drop, which is considered a lower drop. This encourages a more natural foot strike, often favored by experienced runners.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or rubbing during runs
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Re-tie laces to find a comfortable tension; experiment with different lacing techniques to alleviate pressure points. Allow for a break-in period if new.
Shoes feel less cushioned over time
Running shoes have a lifespan, typically 500-800 kilometers (300-500 miles). If you've reached this mileage, the cushioning might be compressed and worn out, indicating it's time for a new pair.
Slipping or lack of grip on surfaces
These shoes are designed for road running. If you're experiencing slipping, ensure you are not running on overly wet, icy, or uneven trail surfaces. Check the outsole for wear and tear; a worn outsole will reduce grip.
Feet feel hot or sweaty
The mesh upper is breathable, but wearing appropriate moisture-wicking running socks can significantly improve ventilation and comfort. Ensure shoes are not laced too tightly, restricting airflow.

Setup: Simply lace them up to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure laces are secure but not overly tight to allow for natural foot movement and swelling during runs. Take a short walk to ensure there are no pressure points before your first run.
Compatibility: These shoes are specifically designed for road running. They are best suited for paved surfaces, sidewalks, and tracks. While they offer neutral support, they are compatible with most foot types that do not require aggressive stability control. They are suitable for adult female runners.
Care:
- Cleaning: Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush (like an old toothbrush). For tougher spots, use a mild soap (like dish soap) diluted in water and a soft cloth or sponge to gently scrub the affected areas. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Drying: Always air dry your shoes at room temperature. Do not put them in a dryer or expose them to direct heat, as this can damage the materials and adhesives. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Avoid Machine Washing: Machine washing can be too harsh and may damage the shoe's structure, cushioning, and adhesives.
