FAQs
Is the 1080v15 suitable for marathons?
Yes, the 1080v15 is designed for long-distance comfort and impact protection, making it a capable choice for marathon training and race days.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 300 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait intensity.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While excellent for running and cardio, the high stack height for cushioning means they are less stable for heavy weightlifting where a flat, firm shoe is preferred.
Does the shoe come in different widths?
New Balance often offers various widths; however, please check the specific availability for the UK 4 size mentioned.
What is the best way to store the trainers?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the materials and foam to deteriorate prematurely.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too snug after long runs
Feet naturally swell during exercise. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks and consider loosening the laces slightly mid-run.
Visible dirt or mud on the upper
Allow the mud to dry completely and gently brush it off with a soft-bristled brush before using a damp cloth.
Sensation of slipping inside the shoe
Check your lacing technique; try a 'runner's loop' or heel lock lacing style to secure the ankle more firmly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your New Balance 1080v15 trainers, start by verifying your size; this model features a standard fit appropriate for most foot shapes. If you are replacing an older pair of running shoes, perform a 'wear-in' period with short walks before committing to high-mileage runs to allow the foam to adapt to your stride. To care for your shoes, avoid machine washing or drying, which can degrade the cushioning foam and synthetic upper materials. Instead, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Remove the insoles if they become damp to prevent moisture buildup and odor.
