Product Information
Full details
The New Balance Nitrel V6 is a versatile trainer designed for active adults who transition frequently between paved surfaces and off-road trails. Its primary benefit is the reliable hybrid traction provided by the AT Tread outsole, making it an excellent choice for runners or walkers who need one shoe for multiple environments. The main caveat is that as a multi-terrain trainer, it may not offer the extreme technical support of a dedicated heavy-duty hiking boot or a specialized long-distance road racing shoe.

FAQs
Is the Nitrel V6 waterproof?
No, the shoe is designed with a breathable mesh upper for maximum ventilation, which means it is not waterproof.
Can I use these for long-distance road running?
They are suitable for moderate distances, but they are designed as a hybrid trainer, so dedicated long-distance road runners may prefer a specialized road shoe.
How do I determine the right size?
New Balance sizes are standard. We recommend measuring your foot in the evening when it is at its largest and ensuring a thumb's width of space at the toe.
Are these shoes machine washable?
We do not recommend machine washing, as the heat and agitation can damage the shoe's structural integrity and the EVA foam.
What is the primary surface for the AT Tread?
The AT Tread is designed to perform on a mix of surfaces, ranging from asphalt roads to light trail paths.
Troubleshooting
Excessive movement or slipping inside the shoe
Try a "runner's loop" lacing technique through the top eyelet to secure the heel lock.
Accumulated dirt in the outsole tread
Use a stiff-bristled brush to clear debris from the lugs to restore optimal traction.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent hybrid performance for road and trail
- Lightweight construction prevents leg fatigue

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nitrel V6 trainers last, follow these maintenance tips:
- Setup: Ensure the laces are tightened evenly across the eyelets to allow the mesh upper to conform to your foot shape naturally.
- Compatibility: These trainers are compatible with standard aftermarket insoles if you require specific arch support modifications.
- Care: After muddy trail use, allow the shoes to dry naturally at room temperature away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the EVA midsole or damage the mesh. Remove dried dirt with a soft brush and clean the mesh using a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid submerging them in a washing machine as this can degrade the adhesives.
