The 1080 continues to be New Balance's lineage shoe, becoming the perfect everyday trainer for road running and urban exploration. New Balance have honed in on the signature ride within fresh foam with the Fresh Foam 1080 v12. Offering the same soft, plush 27mm stack height in the midsole it's predecessors are known for, but with added flexibility and cushioning zones under the hood. The shaping of the outsole with curvatures in the heel and flex grooves in the forefoot provide a seamless transition for a buttery smooth run, with a high-flex knit upper giving dynamic stretch for unrivalled flexibility. This is a flexibile, lightweight, premium running shoe that's traditional in fit and construction but with the features to make your runs as comfortable and manageable as possible.
