Product Information

Full details

The New Balance Fresh Foam 680 Trainers are an ideal choice for adult runners seeking a reliable, cushioned daily trainer. Engineered with a responsive Fresh Foam midsole and a streamlined profile, these shoes excel at pavement training and everyday fitness activities. While they offer excellent comfort for consistent road use, users should note that they are specifically optimized for hard surfaces rather than technical trail running.

FAQs

Are these shoes machine washable?

No, machine washing can damage the foam and adhesives. Hand cleaning is recommended.

Can I use these for trail running?

These are designed for roads and pavement; they lack the aggressive tread needed for trails.

How often should I replace these shoes?

It is generally recommended to replace running shoes every 300-500 miles to maintain proper cushioning.

Are these true to size?

The New Balance Fresh Foam 680 typically fits true to size, but consider a half-size up if you prefer more room for foot swelling during long runs.

Does the Fresh Foam midsole compress over time?

Yes, like all EVA-based foams, it will eventually lose some responsiveness, which is a sign it is time to replace the pair.

Troubleshooting

Feeling tightness across the top of the foot

Try the 'window lacing' technique to relieve pressure on the bridge of the foot.

Heel slippage while running

Use a 'runner's knot' (heel lock) lacing method to secure the ankle collar firmly against the foot.

Accumulated dirt in mesh

Let the shoes dry completely, then use a dry scrub brush to dislodge particles from the mesh weave.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent cushioning for pavement training
  • Lightweight build prevents foot fatigue
  • Sleek and modern aesthetic
  • Provides a natural range of motion

Cons

  • Not suitable for off-road or technical trail terrain
  • Limited to specific width options in standard retail sizing
  • May require a break-in period for optimal arch support

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Fresh Foam 680 trainers, keep them clean and dry. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or putting them in a clothes dryer, as heat can degrade the foam integrity and glue bonds. Instead, use a soft-bristle brush to remove surface debris after each run. For deeper cleaning, wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight. Ensure you are wearing appropriate athletic socks for the best fit; if you intend to use custom orthotics, remove the existing factory insole first to maintain the internal volume of the shoe.
