Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080v12

Wide foot box. Soft and supportive. Extra large foam soles for comfortable running and walking, and light enough to wear all day. I get compliments on the blue and white look all the time

These shoes are so comfortable for running. My knees don't hurt anymore. They seem durable as well but only time will tell.

I've stuck with the 1080 range since v10, couple pairs of each. I wasn't a great fan of v11, but v12 is a better fit for me again. Overall, v10 was preferable, think it was lighter and a bit more nimble, but this shoe can still pick up the pace a bit.

Good shoe but, when compared to the Foam More, it comes up just short. The shoe will satisfy most but it wasn't for me. It does run a half size big.

Last year's 1080v11's were like walking on clouds. Very responsive and soft underfoot. They were truly a phenomenal experience and the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I wore them for every day wear, not running. However, this year NB decided to stiffen them. I thought maybe the ones I got in the mail were defective, however, I tried on another pair in store and they were the same. An associate in the store (and youtube videos online) confirmed that this year's model was a little more firm. The only logical reasoning for this is maybe they are slightly better for the serious runner as far as support. I would be willing to bet a majority of people buying these are getting them for the comfort and walking. Sorely disappointed. I ended up buying a competitive pair.

The 1080v is black and true to size. Light and great cushioning on the feet when running. This is a keeper!!!

The shoes fit poorly. I thought the problem would go away after break-in. But, no.they still do not feel good. They hurt my feet where the ball of my feet bend. I can wear them, but not for long periods of time.

Great shoes love the color and fit Great shoes love the color and fit

This is my go to shoes for comfort after all my injuries it makes life easier.

Not as comfortable as the previous 2 versions. Doesn't seem to have as much cushioning as the previous two versions

I love these shoes, they have so much support, and provide so much comfort all while being incredibly light!

I very happy and satisfied with these running shoes. They are really comfortable and super lightweight. I actually about a couple of pairs to have for backup.

They feel great on my feet definitely worth the money I plan on buying another pair just in a different color for work

I was a little concerned about the width because I wear a 4E in Brooks but these shoes are wide enough for me to walk comfortably. I read that you should size down so I ordered a 10 then had to exchange for 10.5 which is my normal size. The tongue of the shoes has elastic on either side which prevents it from sliding to the side of the foot. I really like the curvature of the soles when walking It's a smooth step. I've only just received these and tried them on and this is what my experience has been with these so far.

Wear them for 12 hour work days and my feet feel great after work. They feel a bit springy too with the cushion. Great running and all day wear.

I have bought multiple pairs of each of the previous editions of this shoe and loved them. These seem to the worst. The plastic eyelets for the laces at the ankles all cracked very quickly. Also this version does not feel as comfortable especially on the lateral plantar/ lateral arch

It is rare for me to find size 16's that work for me and keep my feet from hurting- these 1080's are doing it. Love them. The purchasing process had a couple snags in it and then the delivery was delayed a few days. I'll buy more shoes from New Balance but I am hopeful the purchasing and delivery process is better the next time.

Sper confortable for run or walk hold the foot no back or leg pain

Toe box was too tight squeezing my feet and the shoes felt very stiff, rigid, almost hard to bend.

I've worn NB for years. The 880v11 Size 11 4E fight perfectly. But the same size in the 880V12 were too small--and the 11.5 were too big. So I tried to 1080 V12 in Size 11 4E. They were great shoes, but were too big. A size smaller--which I tried in a store--were too small. Very frustrating that you don't stick with the same sizing year after year.

I use these extensively to walk to work (45mins one way) and all my heel and ball of foot pain has disappeared completely. Very comfortable to walk in.

I bought these for my granddad and he loves them. He said "they are helping him learn how to walk again" lol. They are definitely true to size. He wants second pair already, so they are worth the price.

I use my new sneakers for reffing high school volleyball. My feet are very happy with the comfort that these shoes provide for a long period of time.
