The New Balance Women's Fresh Foam X 860v14 gives you the plush cushioned comfort of Fresh Foam X but adds in innovative technology with a stability plane. Built to help you find the performance and stability you need without taking away from the comfort, and cushioning found throughout, it offers no harsh barriers to each step.An increased rocker profile moves you from landing to toe in a smooth, always forward feeling motion that helps the miles slide by.
860
A daily trainer built for support, the New Balance Fresh Foam 860 gives overpronators a plush and comfortable ride for any distance.
Regular Cushioning
Regular cushioning offers a blend of lightness, comfort, and ground feel. Popular for shorter distance racing as well as training and daily mileage running, the lower stack of midsole foam offers inherent stability and a lighter feel on your foot when compared to max-stack shoes.
Structured
Structured shoes offer stability and support that is particularly helpful for those who overpronate or have flat feet. If you overpronate, you belong to about 60% of the population who land on the outside of the foot but turn in too far through the transition from landing to toe-off. Without correction, overpronation can lead to injuries and an inefficient running style.
Modern shoes use a variety of different methods to assist in correcting your gait, but most include increased support in the upper and stabilising midsole systems that guide your foot gently through the most efficient path.
New Balance
Founded in Boston, USA, in 1906 as a maker of arch supports, New Balance are now one of the most recognisable brands around, straddling both the fashion and running worlds.
Their top-end runners can be split into two groups. Shoes that use Fresh Foam, such as the 1080, prioritise comfort, giving a plush and soft ride, while the explosive FuelCell range offer a little more rebound, helping you make the most of every step for improved times.
