FAQs

What is the main benefit of the ABZORB® midsole?

The ABZORB® midsole provides excellent shock absorption, reducing the impact on your feet and joints for enhanced comfort during wear.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 878 is designed primarily for casual wear and everyday comfort. While they offer good cushioning, they are not specialized running shoes and may not provide the specific support needed for intense running.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by New Balance or the retailer. Ensure you measure your foot length accurately. This model is available in UK adult sizes.

Can I wash these shoes in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Hand washing with a damp cloth and mild soap is the preferred method for cleaning.

What is the color scheme of this model?

This model features a 'Grey' colorway with secondary 'Silver' accents.

Are there other color options available for the 878 series?

While this guide focuses on the 'Grey' and 'Silver' low shoe, the 878 series may be available in other colorways and variations (e.g., trainers) from New Balance.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Allow for a break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the laces are adjusted for a comfortable fit without overtightening.

Soles feel stiff

The ABZORB® midsole may require some initial wear to conform to your foot's shape. Continue wearing them for short periods to allow the cushioning to adapt.

Minor scuffs on the upper

Use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap to gently clean the affected area. Test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous spot first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The New Balance 878 'Grey' is designed for general adult use and is compatible with most casual and athleisure attire. It is suitable for adult male footwear sizes.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Gently wipe the shoes with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and a soft brush. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources or in a tumble dryer, as this can damage the materials.
