I've owned just about every version of this shoe from v5 to v12 ... and NB just keeps making it better and better. Support, comfort, fit, stability and everything else that counts are a 10+ with the v12. Tearing eyelets with the older versions were a problem - I hope the v12 eliminates that problem ... so far so good.
I suggest consideration be given to provide "round" rather than the typical "flat" laces.

I have been a fan of New Balance for 35 years or so. Got my first pair when i was in high school. they were the only company that made narrow width tennis shoes that would fit my feet. i have been buying eh 1080's for a while now. i like this iteration of the shoe. will defiantly buy them again.

Together, physical therapy and these shoes eliminated knee pain that had been building over several years. I bought a second pair so I can wear them every day.

Hands down, the most comfort i ever had. Like the description says, i highly recommend getting them a full size smaller. If you are a 10 1/2, get a 9 1/2. If you aren't fully trusting, get at least a half size smaller. Do that, and you will have 0 regrets about wearing the best running shoes ever made.

I have been recovering from surgery and about the only exercise I can do is walking. These shoes make it a pleasure. When I'm fully back, I look forward to running in them. Kudos Team NB!

based on reviews I ordered half a size smaller than usual, and it fit excellent. (normally I wear 13 for this model I wear 12-1/2). The model 12 is much better designed than the previous model, particularly the heel box. The 12 heel appears to be much more durable in construction. I found the heel of the shoe is great now. Version -11 had an interesting(?) spandex filled with broken hard foam in the heal which lacked durability. I liked the Version-12 so much them I ordered a second pair after just a week trying the first pair out.
I'd also recommend:
Saucony Jazz, different type of shoe but very soft ride.

I’ve bought the past 8 versions of the 1080 and these are my favorite. I do wish they would come in more color choices in 4E, other than that they’re amazing.

Fits well. Very comfortable. Good support.
Color not quite the same as shown online, more orangey red than pure red.
All in all, a good purchase.

The 1080V12 is the best yet. Comfortable, breathable and flexible. Plus I love the new colors.

The heel in the v11 was the downfall of the shoe and broke on my last 3 pairs. The v12 heel has been improved and a much better design. Looking forward to wearing these shoes out!

Very comfortable shoe. It is a little wider then the 990 V5 that I usaully wear. The shoe is soft but firm enough for walking or running

I am buying NB Fresh Foam X 1080v22 now for sixth time. In the last two times (year 2021 and 2022) I notice that the strings becomes very short and difficult to tighten.

I like a lot of arch support and this model of NB are the only shoes I’ve ever (and I mean EVER) found that have great arch support and they’re like walking on pillows! These are NOT wet weather shoes! Your feet will get wet. But they are comfortable! I hate, HATE buying shoes and spending this much kill’s me, but they’re worth it. My feet don’t hurt anymore!
