FAQs
What makes the FuelCell midsole special?
The FuelCell midsole is a combination of PEBA and EVA foam, engineered to provide a highly responsive and energetic ride, giving you a feeling of propulsion.
Who is this shoe best suited for?
These trainers are ideal for adult male runners who want a lightweight shoe for faster, more spontaneous runs, tempo training, and even racing.
Can I use these for long, slow runs?
While they can accommodate longer runs, their design and responsiveness are optimized for quicker paces. For very long, slow runs, you might prefer a shoe with more plush cushioning.
How do I clean the mesh upper?
Gently clean the mesh upper with a soft brush and a mild soap and water solution. Rinse lightly and allow to air dry completely.
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately wet conditions.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Please refer to the retailer or New Balance's official website for specific warranty information, as it can vary by region and purchase date.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug in the heel and midfoot without being constrictive.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and try lacing them differently to create more space, or consider a half-size larger if persistent.
Midsole feels less responsive over time
Ensure the shoes are clean and dry. Excessive dirt or moisture can impact foam performance. If the shoe is significantly worn, the cushioning may have naturally compressed.
Upper material feels abrasive
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Break in the shoes with shorter runs to allow them to mold to your feet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These trainers are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably by adjusting the laces.
Compatibility: Designed for running on roads, tracks, and treadmills. They are suitable for adult male runners.
Care:
- Cleaning: Use a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt and mud. Avoid harsh detergents. For the mesh upper, a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush can be effective. Allow to air dry completely.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as this can damage the materials and construction.
- Maintenance: Regularly check the outsole for wear and tear. Rotate with other shoes in your collection to prolong the life of the cushioning.
