FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for road running?

While the Fresh Foam X cushioning offers comfort, these trainers are specifically designed with a trail-oriented Vibram® outsole for superior grip on unpaved surfaces. They may feel heavier and less responsive on roads compared to dedicated road running shoes.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the New Balance sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box for comfort, especially if your feet tend to swell during activity.

What is the primary benefit of the Fresh Foam X midsole?

The Fresh Foam X midsole is engineered to provide a soft, cushioned, and responsive ride, minimizing impact and enhancing comfort over long distances and varied terrain.

How often should I clean my trail trainers?

Clean your trainers after particularly muddy or dirty outings to maintain their performance and extend their lifespan. Regular spot cleaning can also be beneficial.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

Yes, the Vibram® outsole is designed for traction on both wet and dry surfaces. However, the shoes are not waterproof unless specified otherwise for a particular model variation.

What makes the Vibram® outsole special?

Vibram® outsoles are renowned for their exceptional durability and aggressive tread patterns, providing reliable traction across a wide range of challenging surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Traction feels reduced

Clean the outsole thoroughly to remove any mud, debris, or packed-in dirt that might be hindering grip.

Discomfort during long runs/hikes

Ensure the shoes are laced properly for a secure but not overly tight fit. Consider wearing moisture-wicking socks. If discomfort persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

Shoes feel wet after use

Allow shoes to air dry completely between uses. Ensure they are stored in a well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These trainers require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred fit. They are compatible with most weather conditions encountered on trails. To care for your Fresh Foam X Hierro v9 trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Remove excess dirt with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and cool water with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
