New Balance Fresh Foam 680v8 Women's Running Shoes
Durable, comfortable and built to keep up with you whether you're running miles or running errands.
Engineered Knit Upper
Envelop your feet in soft, breathable comfort with the New Balance Fresh Foam 680v8. Constructed with an engineered knit upper, the 680v8 delivers exceptional targeted ventilation, allowing cool air to permeate the entire construction, providing a constant supply of fresh, cool air while simultaneously forcing out hot, muggy air. The increase in ventilation creates a perfect microclimate for your feet to thrive in, so you can remain comfortable on long-distance days. A padded collar sits comfortably against the skin to reduce the risks of chafing and irritation, whilst a heel counter locks down the heel for a supportive fit. As well as this, a no-sew material application means reduced weight plus a minimal risk of rubbing and blisters, because everyone knows how those can ruin your day. Completing the upper is a lacing system that locks down the midfoot to reduce in-shoe slippage so you can enjoy distraction-free strides.
Fresh Foam Midsole
New Balance's innovative Fresh Foam midsole offers premium cushioning underfoot, giving you a comfortable ride and ensuring you can run better, for longer. Attenuating shock impact, the Fresh Foam protects against stress to joints when striking down on hard, unforgiving surfaces without compromising a responsive, natural ride. Delivering plush underfoot cushioning, the Fresh Foam is a fusion of plush foam and advanced design, creating an ultra-cushioned and geometrically sound ride. Fresh Foam encourages a smooth heel-toe transition and reduces the use of superfluous muscle power; this diminishes fatigue, keeping you motivated for longer. A moulded insert also exists within the 680v8 to provide extra support as you go.
Integrated Rubber Outsole
Completing the New Balance 680v8 is an integrated rubber outsole that provides durable traction so you can go further and faster for longer. The full rubber outsole can form a solid bond with the ground beneath it, so you remain grounded at all times. The durable rubber outsole will withstand wear and tear and ensure traction on uneven terrain. As well as this, lugs have been used on the outsole to ensure added traction in both wet and dry conditions.
