Crafted with an enhanced Hypoknit mesh upper with bootie construction, the New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080 v11 Running Shoes give a secure and supportive fit that comfortably hugs the foot while allowing air to easily flow and disperse heat to keep your temperature regulated on long runs. A traditional lacing system and an updated Ultra Heel design lock your feet in place for a snug lockdown fit. The Fresh Foam X midsole gives plush underfoot cushioning and a responsive ride with more bounce back energy return to propel you forward with each stride. The Ortholite sockliner further enhances your comfort with each stride and manages moisture as your feet heat up, while laser engravings in the midsole work to soften landings, increase flexibility and give an efficient transition through the gait cycle. Finally, the blown rubber outsole offers excellent grip and traction, while grooves give good flexibility and allow your foot to move naturally as you run.
