Many of our most enduring styles prove that performance-focused design and stylish aesthetics don’t have to be mutually exclusive. One of the most iconic New Balance running shoes, the famous 990, was designed in the early 80s to a brief that demanded the best running shoe on the market. Four decades later the 990 is more popular than ever and widely regarded as both a first-class running shoe and a modern design classic. That’s New Balance heritage.

What’s so special about New Balance? Perhaps the most important thing - the characteristic we aim to preserve in everything we do – is heritage. Independent since 1906, we empower people through sport and craftmanship to create positive change in communities around the world. Every New Balance trainer and item of New Balance clothing is the product of time-honoured principles that will never fail to stand the test of time. The midsole’s softness is like magic. Our durometer measurements confirmed this because at a mere 9.5 HA, the Rebel v3 is the second softest we’ve ever tested in our lab! During our runs, each step felt like a luxury. Although spongy and buttery-soft, it still felt lively and springy during our speed runs. We are under a legal duty to supply Products that are in conformity with these Terms. See clause 13.2 below for a summary of your key legal rights in relation to the Products. Nothing in these Terms will affect your legal rights. Its ample and soft midsole foam made our variety of runs enjoyable and therapeutic—10/10 for plushness. In the lab, durometer measurements verified that at 15.5 HA, the Fresh Foam X More v4 is 37.8% softer than the average. It's definitely the king of soft cushioning. Over the years, New Balance developed top-of-the-line running shoes and committed to manufacturing some of them in the United States (and also the U.K., where it has long maintained a strong presence). The 990, first introduced in 1982, became a groundbreaking model for New Balance with its revolutionary Encap technology. In this shoe, EVA foam in the midsole was encapsulated by a polyurethane shell, which helped the foam keep its shape and bounce over time. The result was a springy, highly durable running shoe that athletes loved. It’s still a popular model today, and one of the main shoes in the company’s “Made in USA” series. A Fresh Take on RunningAfter miles of sweating it out during runs, and hours of intensive tests in our lab, the New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080 v12 has emerged as the best daily trainer in the New Balance roster. The luxurious cushion of the midsole, its unrivaled fit, and its grippy outsole make it the perfect running ally—day in and day out. a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of New Balance employees or agents; Weighing in at just 238g (8.4 oz), the New Balance Fresh Foam Roav v2 is definitely a lightweight shoe. It is far below the average weight of road running shoes 268g (9.45 oz) and we were absolutely amazed by how it felt so light on our feet.

The Hierro v7 also offers a stable ride, thanks to its wider-than-average platform (113 mm vs 111 mm at the forefoot and 90.6 mm vs 88.6 mm on the heel).

Among its racer counterparts, its 2.8 mm outsole gives more than enough rubber to last long. Despite the tall and soft midsole, we were pleased with how stable and planted our landings felt. In the lab, we found out that it has a wider-than-average base—12.5 mm wider at the heel and 7 mm wider at the forefoot. At the same time, the upper also gave us a snug and secure fit.
