FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

While inspired by marathon running shoes, the New Balance 878 'Grey' are best suited for casual wear and light jogging. For serious marathon training, a more specialized running shoe might be recommended.

What material is the upper made of?

The description indicates a sleek grey upper with black accents, commonly associated with synthetic materials or a mix of leather and synthetic overlays for trainers of this style. For precise material composition, refer to the product packaging.

How should I clean mud or dirt off the trainers?

Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush can be used. Always allow them to air dry.

Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?

The trainers offer some protection, but they are not waterproof. Extended exposure to heavy rain may lead to discomfort and could affect the materials. It's advisable to avoid wearing them in very wet conditions.

What is the 'Presidential Running Shoes' series?

This series represents New Balance's commitment to high-quality footwear, drawing inspiration from their historical performance running shoes, such as those used in iconic races like the Boston Marathon.

Do these trainers come in other colors?

The specific model detailed here is the 'Grey' variant. New Balance offers various models and colorways; checking their official collection will show other available options.

Troubleshooting

Sizing feels incorrect

Ensure you have tried them on with the type of socks you intend to wear. If still uncomfortable, consult the size chart or consider a different size.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

The sole is designed for general traction. For specific slick surfaces, consider if the footwear is appropriate for the conditions. Lightly scuffing the sole on rougher surfaces can sometimes improve grip initially.

Discoloration of the grey material

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean with a damp cloth as recommended; harsh chemicals can cause fading.
