Product Information

Full details

The New Balance Tektrel is designed for adult female trail runners seeking a balance of durability and comfort on varied terrain. These trainers feature a plush, cushioned ride and aggressive traction, making them an excellent choice for off-road exploration and paved surface transitions. While they offer superior protection, the specific construction prioritizes neutral support, which may require users with significant overpronation to seek specialized orthotic inserts.

FAQs

Are these shoes waterproof?

The Tektrel features protective materials but is not explicitly waterproof; it is designed for breathability during active use.

What is the heel-to-toe drop?

These trainers feature an 8mm heel-to-toe drop, which is standard for neutral trail running shoes.

Can I use these for road running?

Yes, the AT Tread outsole is designed for performance on both paved surfaces and off-road trails.

How should I clean the white material?

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not submerge or use a washing machine.

Are they suitable for high-arch feet?

Yes, as a neutral trainer, they accommodate a variety of foot shapes, though you can swap the insole for a higher-arch version if needed.

How heavy are the shoes?

The weight is 238g, which is considered lightweight for a trail-specific trainer.

Troubleshooting

Foot slipping inside the shoe during descents

Try a 'runner's loop' lacing technique to secure the heel more firmly.

Mud accumulation in the outsole treads

Use a stiff brush or a stick to clear debris from the tread pattern after your run to maintain grip performance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent traction on mixed terrains
  • High-comfort plush cushioning
  • Lightweight construction minimizes foot fatigue
  • Protective upper materials for rugged environments

Cons

  • Neutral ride may not suit severe overpronators
  • White colourway may show trail dirt more easily
  • Limited to trail-specific performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longest life for your Tektrel trainers, start by adjusting the traditional lacing system to lock your heel in place without constricting circulation. These shoes are compatible with most standard sports insoles if you require additional arch support. For maintenance, avoid machine washing, which can damage the specialized foam and adhesive bonds. Instead, remove loose dirt with a soft-bristled brush after every run. If the shoes become muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the materials from warping.
