Product Information
Full details
The New Balance 680 trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a balance of comfort, ventilation, and traction. The key benefit is a lightweight feel that helps reduce foot fatigue during runs. A potential consideration is that while durable, the outsole may show wear faster on abrasive surfaces with prolonged intense use. These trainers feature a breathable mesh upper, a cushioned midsole for comfort, and a durable rubber outsole for reliable grip.

FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?
The New Balance 680 trainers offer good cushioning for everyday runs and distances up to a half marathon. For full marathons, runners seeking maximum cushioning and support might consider specialized marathon shoes.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the New Balance sizing chart available online or in stores. It's recommended to measure your foot at the end of the day when feet are typically largest. Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Can these trainers be washed in a machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the materials and structure of the shoe. Hand wash gently with mild soap and water.
What is the warranty period for these trainers?
Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please check the specific purchase details or contact New Balance customer service for warranty information relevant to your purchase.
What surfaces are the rubber outsoles designed for?
The durable rubber outsoles are designed for excellent traction on various surfaces, including roads, pavements, treadmills, and light, dry trails.
Is the cushioning suitable for high-impact activities?
Yes, the cushioned midsole is designed to provide superior comfort and absorb shock during running and other high-impact activities.
Troubleshooting
Foot discomfort or blisters
Ensure you have the correct size and width. Break in the shoes gradually with shorter wears before long runs. Check sock fit and material.
Reduced traction
Inspect the rubber outsole for excessive wear or embedded debris. Clean the outsole with water to remove dirt and restore grip.
Poor ventilation, feet feel too warm
Ensure the mesh upper is not clogged with dirt. Wear moisture-wicking socks. Allow shoes to air out completely between wears.
