FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for running?

The New Balance 880 trainers are specifically designed with Walking Strike Path technology to support the walking gait cycle. While they offer cushioning, they may not provide the specific support and responsiveness needed for rigorous running activities. For running, dedicated running shoes are generally recommended.

How do I determine my correct UK shoe size?

Refer to New Balance's official size chart, which typically provides measurements for foot length corresponding to UK sizes. It's also recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can vary.

What is the benefit of Fresh Foam cushioning?

Fresh Foam cushioning is engineered to provide an ultra-cushioned and lightweight experience, minimizing impact and offering a plush feel underfoot, making them ideal for long periods of walking.

How durable is the Ndurance rubber outsole?

The Ndurance rubber outsole is designed for increased durability, particularly in high-wear areas. This means it is built to withstand regular use and resist abrasion, extending the lifespan of the shoe.

Can I wear these shoes in wet conditions?

While the suede and mesh upper offers some protection, these shoes are not waterproof. They are best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Heavy rain or puddles may saturate the materials.

What is the weight of these trainers?

These trainers weigh approximately 325 grams (11.5 oz) per shoe, contributing to a lightweight feel that helps reduce fatigue during wear.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. Try wearing them with the type of socks you typically use for walking. If discomfort persists, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning or support over time

The cushioning may naturally degrade with extensive use. Consider replacing the shoes if you notice a significant loss of comfort or support after prolonged wear.

Suede material getting dirty

Clean the suede using a suede brush or a slightly damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully. Protectants can be applied to help repel dirt.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

These trainers require no specific setup. Simply ensure you have the correct size for a comfortable fit.

Compatibility:

The New Balance 880 is primarily designed for walking activities. While they can be used for light jogging or everyday wear, their specific design features, like the Walking Strike Path, are optimized for the walking gait cycle. They are generally compatible with most walking surfaces.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Upper: For the suede and mesh upper, spot clean using a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. Avoid soaking the shoes. For stubborn stains on suede, a specialized suede cleaner may be used sparingly.
  • Cleaning the Midsole and Outsole: Wipe the foam midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. Ensure no mud or debris is left in the outsole grooves.
  • Drying: Allow the trainers to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or tumble dryers, as this can damage the materials.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve the materials and shape.
