FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

While the Tektrel trainers offer comfort and support, their aggressive design is optimized for trail running. They can be worn for casual activities, but their primary function is for off-road running.

How do I know if the UK Size 5 is the right fit?

It's recommended to try the shoes on before purchasing, if possible. Ensure there is adequate space in the toe box (about a thumb's width) and that the heel does not slip. Compare with your usual athletic shoe size.

Can I use these for hiking?

Yes, the Tektrel trainers are suitable for hiking due to their durable construction, comfortable cushioning, and aggressive lug outsole providing good traction on varied terrain.

What is the main advantage of the AT Tread outsole?

The AT Tread outsole provides versatile traction, meaning it performs well on a variety of surfaces, including both trails and harder ground, offering reliable grip in different conditions.

How often should I clean my Tektrel trainers?

Clean your trainers after particularly muddy or dirty runs to prevent buildup and maintain material integrity. Regular spot cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended for general upkeep.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the Tektrel series comes in various colors. This specific guide focuses on the Orange, UK Size 5 variant, but other colorways like Black, White, and Grey are available in the Tektrel and DynaSoft Tektrel lines.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a comfortable fit without excessive pressure. If the issue persists, consider if this specific size and model are the best fit for your foot shape.

Traction is reduced on wet surfaces

Ensure the AT Tread outsole is clean and free of mud or debris. While designed for versatility, extreme wet conditions may still present challenges. Allow the shoes to dry thoroughly after use.

Midsole feels stiff

The dynamic midsole may require a short break-in period. Wear the shoes for shorter runs or walks initially to allow them to adapt to your foot's movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The New Balance Tektrel trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably. No specific setup is required beyond lacing them to your preference.

Compatibility: These trainers are designed for adult female runners. They are compatible with standard athletic socks. The AT Tread outsole is designed for varied terrains, including dirt trails, gravel, mud, and light pavement.

Care: To maintain the condition of your Tektrel trainers:

  1. Cleaning: Remove loose dirt and mud with a soft brush. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the materials and adhesives.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape during drying.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
