FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

The Fresh Foam 680 provides good cushioning for daily runs and shorter distances. For marathon running, a shoe with more advanced, long-distance specific cushioning and support might be preferable.

Can I wear these for cross-training or gym workouts?

Yes, their comfort and stability make them suitable for general gym workouts and some cross-training activities. However, for sports requiring lateral support, a dedicated cross-trainer might be more appropriate.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Ensure there is a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the end of the shoe when standing. The shoe should feel snug but not tight, with no heel slippage.

How many miles can I expect these shoes to last?

Typically, running shoes offer optimal performance for 300-500 miles. This can vary based on running surface, user weight, and running form.

Are there other color options available for this model?

While this guide focuses on the yellow variant, New Balance often releases popular models in a range of colors. Please check with your retailer for availability of other colorways.

What is the main advantage of Fresh Foam technology?

Fresh Foam technology is designed to provide a plush, soft, and responsive cushioning experience, minimizing impact stress on joints during running.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure the laces are loosened before putting them on. If still tight, consider if this is the correct size or if the shoe type isn't suitable for your foot shape.

Reduced cushioning effect over time

The Fresh Foam cushioning is designed to last for a significant number of miles, but like all foams, it will eventually compress. If the cushioning feels significantly diminished, it may be time to consider replacing the shoes.

Slipping on wet surfaces

While the outsole offers good traction, wet surfaces can reduce grip. Run with caution on wet roads, and ensure the outsole is free from debris.
