New Balance Women's 1080V11 Running Shoe

So comfortable I forget that I have them on!

I've run a half marathon, a 5k, a 15k and I've been training for another half marathon on these. I have very flat feet that cause pain in my knees if they aren't well supported. I cannot emphasize enough how perfect these shoes are for me. I do get an additional arch support specifically for runners but the structure of these shoes is really supportive beyond what arch supports provide alone. This version felt a little weird at first because it somewhat feels like your heel is going to come out of them, but they never did for me and I don't notice that feeling any more. My friend has the same pair and she is still a little bothered by it, but her heel has never actually come out either. They have a lot of cushion, which also is a relief on knees and ankles. I have worn this same model year after year and just get the newer version. I recently learned that this is not good long term on your body and you need to mix it up. So, I'm having a personal crisis trying to pick a new shoe instead of this one. I really love these shoes!

New Balance never disappoints! Very comfortable, good quality and bright orange color. Definitely will buy more

Really comfortable and cushy in the heel sneaker. I do like these and would recommend. However, they don't offer stability in the ankles. Love the fun colors and the cushioned heels. Not recommended if you have plantar fascitis.

I used to run on Brooks Glycerin and bought the 1080v9 size 8 and thought they were just for the gym. When I accidentally ran on them, I never ran on my Brooks again (although they are absolutely great). I then upgraded to the 0189v10 when they got worn, same size (8) and didn’t feel well on them but gave them a try for a short run- fit small, narrow, hurt my toes… They were just not made for me and had to sell them. I hated them.When I unboxed these 1080v11 half size larger (size 8.5), they felt just right from the beginning. I think these have a lower profile so my ankles don’t touch the shoe (never happened on my v9 but was terrible on the v10). I have not ran on them but I will update as soon as I do. I know I am going to love them because they fit just right. Now my toes don’t touch the toe box (these are half size bigger) and don’t have that hard profile on the toe box that were on the v10 and hurt my feet.I usually run 20-30mi per week and use them exclusively for running, either for short or long runs.Update 5 months later: they are my favorite running shoes. Absolutely comfortable. I use them for almost all my runs. The sole will surely be worn faster than on the v9 but there’s no option, they don’t exist so better don’t think about that and enjoy running on these. Glad I bought them half size larger. Have never felt sore not even after long runs (13mi).

This brand and exact style is my favorite tennis shoe choice.Make note- this exact style…I have a small but fairly wide foot and I also have a leg length discrepancy.The wide width gives me room for the leg lift insert. The show is just a good product.

My feet are a mess. No arch to speak of, past history of torn tibialis tendon, etc. These shoes cradle my foot, give me adequate arch support and the wide heel creates stability. They better never quite making the Fresh Foam 1080 V11!

My husband and I both have been wearing the new balance fresh foam 1080 shoes for years. We walk 4-6 miles every day and this is our absolute favorite shoe. It does not take very long to break in and the cushion is amazingly comfortable. They are pricey but totally worth it. If I find the older versions like this one 1080v11 versus the 1080v12, then I buy them because there is little difference. They run on the narrow side and I usually wear a 7 1/2 shoe size but had to go to a size 8 on this shoe.
