Product Information

Full details

The New Balance Tektrel is a versatile trainer designed for active adults who enjoy moving between paved paths and rugged trail environments. Featuring a durable AT Tread outsole and responsive midsole foam, these shoes provide a stable, comfortable ride for outdoor enthusiasts; however, those seeking a high-cushion marathon shoe may find the trail-focused build firmer than typical road running sneakers.

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the New Balance Tektrel trainers are designed with breathable materials, which means they are not waterproof.

Can I use these for marathon road running?

While they are suitable for long distances, they are optimized for trails; dedicated road shoes may provide more specific cushioning for high-mileage asphalt running.

What is the weight of the shoe?

The New Balance Tektrel weighs 238g, making it a lightweight option for trail trainers.

Is the insole removable?

Yes, the Tektrel features a removable insole, allowing you to insert your own custom orthotics if required.

What does the 8mm drop mean?

The 8mm heel-to-toe drop represents the difference in height between the heel and the forefoot, providing a stable, neutral platform for most runners.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points during long runs

Adjust your lacing pattern. Use the top eyelet for a 'runner's loop' to secure the heel, or loosen the laces slightly over the bridge of the foot to relieve tension.

Slipping on wet rock or mud

While the AT Tread is versatile, ensure your outsole is free of caked-on mud. Clean the treads after each use to maintain the maximum surface area contact.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent dual-surface traction
  • Lightweight design for agility
  • Durable materials for trail protection
  • Comfortable neutral support

Cons

  • Not intended for technical mountain climbing
  • Firmer feel than dedicated maximalist road shoes
  • Light colorway may show dirt quickly on muddy trails

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance from your Tektrel trainers:

  1. Sizing: These shoes follow standard UK adult sizing. Ensure you leave about a thumb's width of space in the toe box to accommodate foot swelling during activity.
  2. Break-in: While comfortable out of the box, perform a few short walks to allow the foam to conform to your specific foot shape.
  3. Cleaning: After muddy trail use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never submerge the shoes fully in water or use a washing machine, as this can degrade the adhesive and foam density.
  4. Drying: Air dry only in a cool, shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators, which can warp the materials.
