Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080v12

best shoe they made so far i enjoy them much better

Feels great under foot, I use every Sunday on my long runs. No hot spot, tongue lays still and is comfy on top of my feet. The laces stayed tied and the toe box is plentiful. The look is sharp too, great job New Balance. Hurry up and get the Rebel 3 out here along with the other 2022 line.

Great shoe and width sizes to chose. Feel good on feet very Reasonable price

Soooo comfortable. Love the look (though my family tells me they're the same color as traffic cones). Prob my fav pair of NB ever. Great shoes. I ordered a half size up and this slip on and off great.

I have been using 1080's for about 8 years now and so glad they have gone back to the basics of the heel cup. These shoes feel like I am walking on air and no longer do my knees ache. Love these shoes

I owned the original 1080, and 2 pairs of 1080v2. I just came home to the v12 after wandering in the shoe desert for a decade, and I'm very pleased. I've only run 5 miles on my treadmill and 10K on dirt roads so far, but the shoes feel great. I have short, wide feet (7-4E) with very high arches, and these fit me very well. Other brands have been making 4Es narrower, but the NB shoe still fits as it should and makes my slow miles feel good. I'm 71 years old, so you may not be running as slowly as me, but I think you'll still be comfortable in these.

Great shoe!!!!! Always reliable!!! Fresh foam technology!!!

My first instinct was that the v12 felt heavier than the v11, but I realize I think that every first run. Great fit and feel even a little wider in the toe box than last model and the breath fantastic. This is my favorite all around everyday run shoe, year after year.

I've been wearing Fresh Foam 1080s for years, and they've always done me right. The newest iteration the v12s are as close to a perfect shoe as I have ever experienced. Way to go, New Balance!

I bought them for my wife and she likes them very much

I use these for running. Roomy toe box. Good cushion. Great new color.

I have three pairs of NB 1080v12, and these are my favorites.

Great support, yet really soft, like running on pillows.

Most comfortable shoes I've ever run in from start to finish!

I'm not really a runner but I walk up some very very steep hills every day, about 45 minutes of fast paced walking. I started having some aches and pains in my knees going down steep hills so started searching highly cushioned sneakers. To cut a long story short I have some rather expensive Hokas, The Saucony Triumph 19, tried on Brooks Glycerins, didn't really like the style or fit. Thought I'd try New Balance again as in my younger days NB was my go to sneaker brand. I kept hearing these 1080v 12s run large or at least a 1/2 size too big. I've worn a 10.5 medium width forever, but just in case, I ordered these in both 10 and 10.5. and thought I'd return whichever one didn't fit as well, just walking on carpet so they'd still be like new to return. To my surprise the 10's felt VERY tight and the 10.5s my normal size, felt like a super soft glove, I was blown away with how instantly comfortable they are. I'd have to say these are probably the most comfortable sneakers I have ever had. Though I don't run, I still feel plenty of support and I love the crazy bright Orange color I opted for. Like most sneakers these days, I feel they should all be $20-$30 less on an overall, that said, I LOVE these 1080v 12s...Best sneakers I've ever owned .

Super comfortable. Love the extra foam. Always love New Balance

My fifth pair of 1080's and my favourite version! Comfortable on my long runs. Bought my usual size and fit is perfect. This version is better because the upper back heel is soft and snug. As a result sand doesn't kick into shoe.

Super springy shoe, great for long runs and soft on the knees, one of the better shoes out there

Great shoe. Soft and comfortable. Do yourself a favor and size down.

I have been loyal to NB 1080 since V8 and I couldn't wait to have the V12. They are still the best for me not only for running but I use them in gym as well.

Great fit as always and I highly recommend them

Everything about this shoe us phenomenal- augers extremely well with my somewhat overweight frame - affords lots of TLC for my arthritic knees - highly recommend!!!

For the last two years I have been suffering from neuropathy. These shoes enable me to run five thee times a week outside and on a treadmill. They are simply great shoes to wear and are very comfortable.

These shoes are awesome! I upgraded to the 1080 from 880's. It's like a night and day difference. Granted new shoes often feel better than your old ones but the 1080 v12 is one of the best daily trainer shoes I've had in years. I don't notice how (heavy) they are. Some of the reviews I watched before purchasing were a bit leery of the shoes weight, but I have yet to see them as being clunky or heavy on my longer runs. I did go a 1/2 size down from my normal size (as recommended by reviewers) and they fit perfectly.

Great shoe; an upgrade from prior versions...especially like supportive ankle area! Looking for two more pairs, but size not available in any color. Very frustrating!
