New Balance | Women’s Fresh Foam X 860 V14 Running Shoes – Dusk Shower

Advice for Road Runners: The New Balance Women’s Fresh Foam X 860 V14 Running Shoes are designed to be very comfortable and supportive. This New Balance model is suited to runners who have unstable feet and ankles.

Underfoot Feel

The 860 V14’s midsole contains two layers of foam, consisting of:

• a top layer of softer foam – to enhance comfort and protection; and
• a bottom layer of firmer foam – to slow down the speed and amount of pronation.

A rocker profile should help to ensure smooth and efficient movement through the gait cycle.

The midsole features an EVA film (named Stability Plane), which runs through the two layers of foam. This improves the stability of the midsole, and shouldn’t compromise the sensation of cushioning.

Upper Fit

The New Balance 860 V14 Running Shoes have a supportive engineered mesh upper. This should mirror the structured feel of the midsole.

Ideal Run Type

The New Balance Women’s Fresh Foam X 860 V14 Running Shoes are suitable for a wide range of road runs. The midsole should feel relatively soft and bouncy, and should offer a lot of stability. As a result, the cushioning should be well suited to short and long-distance runs at both slow and steady paces.

Sizing Advice

Shoe size is a personal preference and everyone’s feet are different, but we want to ensure you avoid any pain or discomfort from bruised toenails, rubbing, blistering or pins and needles.

Your running shoes should have enough width to allow you to spread your toes and should have some space at the front (we recommend having a half to one thumb’s width of space from the end of your longest toe to the front of your running shoes).
