Product Information

Full details

The New Balance Tektrel Trainers are designed for adult men who need a reliable, high-performance shoe for off-road adventures and varied terrain. Featuring a robust AT Tread outsole and a reinforced regrind upper, these trainers provide excellent stability and durability for hiking or trail running. However, users should note that these are specifically optimized for rugged environments, which may feel firmer on smooth pavement compared to traditional road-running shoes.

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The New Balance Tektrel is not marketed as waterproof, though the regrind overlay offers some protection against light moisture.

Can I use these for road running?

Yes, they are versatile enough for roads, but the lugged sole will feel firmer and may wear down faster than a dedicated road shoe.

How should I clean the regrind upper?

Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water, gently wiping the surface, then allow to air dry.

Do these provide arch support?

The dynamic midsole is designed to offer stable support suitable for most neutral foot types.

Is the sizing consistent with other New Balance shoes?

Yes, New Balance generally maintains consistent sizing across its athletic performance series.

What does the AT Tread outsole offer?

AT Tread provides a unique combination of trail-ready traction and on-road comfort.

Troubleshooting

Laces coming undone during activity

Use a double knot or ensure the laces are threaded tightly through the eyelets for a more secure lock.

Debris getting into the shoe

Ensure the tongue is centered and the laces are tightened adequately; consider using gaiters if running on particularly sandy or rocky trails.

Loss of traction over time

Check the outsole lugs for excessive wear or compacted mud; use a brush to clear out debris from between the lugs.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile performance on mixed terrain
  • Enhanced durability from the regrind upper
  • Excellent grip due to the aggressive lug pattern
  • Stable and supportive ride for long-distance activity

Cons

  • Firmer feel on hard road surfaces
  • Design is specialized for trails rather than casual everyday wear
  • Limited to off-road focused aesthetic

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Tektrel trainers last as long as possible, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Fitting: Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks when trying on your size 12.5 shoes to verify the correct volume and snugness.
  2. Cleaning: After trail use, allow any mud to dry completely before brushing it off with a soft-bristle brush. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
  3. Drying: If the shoes become soaked, remove the insoles and stuff the interior with paper towels. Air dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
  4. Storage: Store in a dry, ventilated place to prevent moisture buildup and odors.
