Engineered Mesh Upper
Providing an enjoyable running experience and keeping you focused on training days, the Fresh Foam x 860v14 has a newly engineered mesh upper. The strategic perforations encourage cool, fresh air to circulate through the shoes, reducing heat build-up, therefore keeping them fresh from start to finish. A durable construction ensures support for a comfortable, distraction-free run. The plush materials reduce irritation and chafing, while reduced seams provide next-to-skin comfort. providing an enjoyable ride. Moisture-wicking properties keep your feet cool and comfortable, preventing a build-up of sweat and providing a quick-drying experience. A traditional lace-up construction works alongside the soft, cushioned tongue and collar to provide a locked-in, secure fit and help reduce in-shoe slipping.
Fresh Foam X Midsole
An evolution from their predecessors, the 860v14 utilises an updated dual-layer Fresh Foam X midsole constructed with approximately 3% bio-based content. This is New Balance's most cushioned Fresh Foam to date, providing incredible comfort. The top layer of the Fresh Foam X midsole is softer and more cushioned than the previous version, while the bottom layer provides a more stable experience. This combination of foams provides you with a soft, responsive landing base for confident, comfortable strides. Helping reduce injuries and discomfort, the midsole absorbs shock when striking hard, unforgiving surfaces while encouraging a natural stride. Between the two foams is an EVA film, a Stability Plane, which helps to improve stability and control pronation. To encourage a smooth heel-toe transition, the 860v14 utilises a rocker geometry, propelling you forward for a more natural running stride.
Durable Rubber Outsole
To provide durability and underfoot traction, the Fresh Foam X 860v14 utilises a rubber outsole compound, providing the grip you need on various surfaces. Adorning the outsole are strategically placed geometric flex grooves that offer a smooth transition between strides, further enhancing the overall support and guiding your foot forward. This will reduce the risk of injury from slipping or rolling your ankle, as you will be held in a firm and upright position. The newly updated outsole has been widened, providing a larger base and encouraging stability for optimum comfort and control underfoot.
