The shoes are comfortable and provide enough cushion but I hit a curb and now there's a hole in the upper. If you're wearing these indoors you'll have no issues with durability but be cautious of running with them outside.

They are comfortable shoes for casual wearing, but lack the arch support needed for long walks or runs.

I am very disappointed in this sneaker. I love fresh foam from my previous experience with the "Cruz reissue" the Cruz reissue is the best running sneaker in my collection compared to my higher end running sneakers and I have 5 pairs of Cruz! Lol. So I figure I'd try out the 1080v11 because of the thicker stack. I figure with the thicker cushion, it would feel even more comfortable than the Cruz. But man I was dead wrong. Completely different shoe. Feels nothing alike. The cushion feels great. But that's about all I can say about the 1080v11. The upper of the shoe feels like it's clamping down on the top of your mid foot and gets tighter with each stride. Not comfy at all because it feels like you have a strap around your mid foot. My heel is always moving up and down. The heel part of the shoe has no type of security so I have to tie the laces all the way up just to try and secure my heel and even at that it still slides up and down with each stride. Between it being very tight midfoot and insecure heel, it's just very uncomfortable.

Love the product. Have had two hip replacements and I can actually run without pain with these shoes! However, when they showed up--there were two shoes but one shoe had no laces. Nowhere in the box nor in the shoe itself. When I called customer service, (after waiting twice for nearly 10 minutes), they said they could not really help me. They could not send me a new pair of laces. Best they could do is send me a "coupon to buy new laces somewhere!" Seriously, for a shoe company, not to be able to send me replacement laces--or a new pair of replacement shoes with laces? Absurd.

I need a wide shoe and a roomy toe box. The 1080v11 was just barely wide enough (in the 4E) but the toe box was too shallow so I had to return.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks 11- best shoe ever ; but sadly gone.

I bought these because of the reviews that said they are supportive. These shoes are light weight for sure, but not so supportive. The high heel lip must be a runner thing too.

Shoes feel great, very comfortable. However, the bottom has shredded with only 3 months use. Second pair, no more. Stay away from Fresh Foam.

Buyer beware of the Ultra Heel! This new feature is the reason I returned them. The heel felt loose, after really tightening the laces, and I had a blister after 5 miles. I really loved the heel design on the 1080 v9. I’m going with NB 880 v11 now, but still with Zappos because their service is the absolute best all around.

while the mid foot and forefoot cushioning was exactly what I was looking for, the heel had a shallow design and my foot was constantly coming out of them

I loved these shoes, after 6 months of medium use the foam has started to get crushed and is degrading. I wish they had held up, I loved them but they aren’t durable enough.

6 Months using this shoe for rigorous walking. Shoe is very comfortable and fits great, but unfortunately the materials that the shoe is made of are really really weak. After a little under six months of use, the sole of the shoe has a significantly deteriorated. I have also worn a hole in the insole where the ball of my foot is. Sometimes while walking, chunks of the insole will break away, and I have to take the shoe off to get the crumbs of the insole out. i wish this shoe was stronger and I would have given it a better review. Been a fan of New Balance since 1998 and they are my go to running/walking shoe, but the foam models are not built to last. Will be looking for something a little more rugged for my next walking shoe.

My Husband was trying to replace fresh foam sneakers that he liked very much, but these did not work for him. We ordered another version of fresh foam, and they are more like his current sneakers. Prompt shipment from Zappos. Effortless return process.

Shoe is good. The new heel/back style is a little flimsy. I put a hole in the heel/back around 200 miles. I'd buy it again and hope for better results.

Unfortunately the size was not the good one. I have start a return but the process is long and complicated, still have no news and no agent is available to give me a status. Hope I will have a refund soon.

This is the third pair of these shoes I own. I love them. They really have helped my feet stay healthy. They don't make me run particularly fast, but they are comfy and help avoid injury. They stabilize my feet landing. The problem in this case was the box they arrived in had a whole in it through the shoe box inside and even scuffing the shoe. I realize they are running shoes but to have them scuffed and stained before I even get to wear them is a bit frustrating.

I have the previous version of this shoe, which I love. I needed a new pair, ordered this version - the heel height it at least a 1/4" shorter than the previous version. What does that do? your heel slips out when you run - sorry, your shoe moves, you're getting blisters. So - this heel height is no good, they didn't have to *fix* this or optimize it... I have to find a different running shoe.
