New Balance 1080

The 1080v13 provides a plush and soft underfoot feel. The 1080v13 features a new Fresh Foam X midsole material, which is coupled with a notable stack height. Simply put, the 1080v13 are neutral road running shoes, which should be very well suited to use on training runs that take place at easy to moderate speeds. If you are looking for road running shoes with very high levels of energy return, the 1080v13 is probably not the shoe for you. The advantage of the 1080v13 is that it provides a lot of soft cushioning, which should help to protect your feet and legs during the majority of your training runs. A key update to the 1080v13 was the introduction of vertical flex grooves - which help to increase the stiffness of the forefoot. This should improve heel to toe transition; helping you to move with greater efficiency.
