Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080v12

I'm training for my sixth marathon and am heading into high-mileage weeks, so have added the 1080v12s to my regimen. Great cushioning, support, and responsiveness. And great colors to boot! LOVE these shoes! And the on-line buying experience was quick, painless, and seamless. I'll be back, for sure!

I have used FF1080's for my last 5+ running shoes and they have been great. Tons of cushioning and plenty of space in the toe box. V12's somehow exceeded my expectations by creating a more stable heel/ankle support than prior versions. I followed guidance and ordered a 1/2 size smaller and that worked out perfectly. I love my new v12's! I run 6-7 days/wk and average ~150-180 miles/month.

Comfortable for longer distance runs. I love how it comes in a wide rage of widths and sizes.

These sneakers are like walking on a cloud. The grip is great. I love using these when I am strength training.

Love these shoes. I am a novice runner. I log about 15 miles a week. I have a number of different feet problems and require a good amount cushion. If you are looking for a soft shoe. This one is great.

Tried on the shoes and they are AMAZING! I can't wait to buy some but I need them in triple black. I hope they release some soon.

Always enjoyed New Balance but was a fan of V10 or V11 due to the top being tight, the V12's have adjusted this issue and are super comfortable all around!

Great cushioning and stability. I love these. Would like to try much foam, but these are outstanding.

Excellent product I feel like I am walking on clouds

Good fit and nice styling; delivery was expedient also.

I use them for walking. they are comfortable and give good support

These are the best running shoes I have bought yet! Took them on Vacation and walked an average of 5 miles a day and never noticed any pain in my feet.

I wear these sneakers to work and they are fabulous. The colors are great and the shoe is super comfortable. I got them a size 9.5 and a 9 would have been good. I usually have to get a half size bigger but they run true to size. It's still a comfortable shoe. I would definitely get them again.

The NB Fresh Foam X 1080v12 are the best shoes I have ever owned. To date I have purchased over 5 pairs and hate to throw away when I get a new pair. I am so happy that I no long support Nike and their best friend Collin K.

Great shoe. Great fit, great cushion, great ride, great fit, new heel was a huge improvement, love the new upper. Excellent wide platform. The monochromatic cream feels a bit old man like. Looks better online. I'm just ordering another pair in a different color way. 5 stars

V12 features a rear heel cup that extends higher and holds the heel better than V11, which was sometimes felt loosey goosey on hills. The rear heel has also been redesigned with a little dimple that will probably help heel strikers stay pointed straight ahead on hard surfaces - essentially squares the back. Love the fresh foam; these are the only shoes my feet can tolerate for longer runs - which for me is about 6 miles.

Ordered a pair of 1080v12 mid June for indoor use on treadmill, elliptical machine and rowing machine. Loved them so much I just ordered a second pair early July for outdoor use walking/jogging and general casual wear. Awesome fit and comfort.

Usually order an 11.5 with the .5 size additional for foot expansion during long exercises. Could probably have gone with an 11 this time from the spare distance at the end of my walks. But this size is comfortable too. Do measure your feet first though!!

Like walking on air. Definitely my new favorite! Also like: Made in USA Stay out of politics and wokeness and I'll keep buying your products. Just be a good shoe. That's all I want from you.

First time went to a neutral, cushioned shoe. I was apprehensive. So far I love the shoes. Great fit...good uppers...

Got a 10 and I'm usually an 11. Fit is perfect. Upper material is nice and thick for good support and durability

New Balance says the sizing runs large so order smaller than your normal size. For context, I've been wearing NB shoes for 25 years, mainly 80x, 106x, Boracay, and 1080vX, so I have a pretty good idea of what size I wear. I normally wear a 10 wide, so I wore a 9.5 wide. If anything, the sizing is slightly longer AND narrower here. So while the 9.5 length may be fine, the wide width is still too narrow. NB was great about the return, despite my having worn them for a week (thank you!). I then replaced them with a 10 wide, which are better but the fit is slightly different than previous versions. I would just order your regular size. The shoe itself is as great as ever in terms of cushioning and support. Customer service is great. Sizing is slightly different, but generally true.

I couldn't believe how comfortable this shoe was. I haven't been running since the pandemic and decided to start again. Choose this shoe for the design and color. Wow!!! Everyone complemented me on it. But the best part was the way the shoe felt after not running for 2 1/2 years. Couldn't be happier.

Always going to be a 1080 fan. Worth it. I'll keep buying.
