FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
They are well-suited for light jogging and treadmill work, though they are categorized primarily as trainers for multi-purpose use.
Does the mesh upper provide enough support?
Yes, the engineered mesh is designed to be lightweight while maintaining enough structure to secure your foot during daily movement.
How do I determine the right size?
These shoes follow standard adult UK sizing; if you typically wear a specific size in other New Balance trainers, we recommend staying with that same size.
Can I put these in the washing machine?
It is not recommended, as machine agitation and heat can damage the foam and the bonding materials used in the shoe construction.
What is the primary benefit of the Fresh Foam midsole?
Fresh Foam is engineered to provide a plush, comfortable ride that absorbs shock and promotes a smooth heel-to-toe transition.
Troubleshooting
Feeling discomfort in the arch after long periods.
Consider using an aftermarket orthotic insole if you require more specific arch support than the standard stock insert provides.
Outer mesh appears dusty or stained.
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris, then spot clean with lukewarm water and a very small amount of soap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance 520 v9s, it is recommended to keep them away from harsh machine-washing cycles. Simply wipe down the mesh upper with a damp cloth and a mild detergent when dirty. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the midsole foam. For the best fit, ensure you are wearing the appropriate athletic socks that match your thickness preference for the UK size 6 fit.
