New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080 v15 Men's Running Shoes
The New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080 v15 Men's Running Shoes are premium cushioned road running shoes built for everyday kilometres, recovery runs and longer distances. Finished in White / Satsuma Orange, the v15 combines New Balance's new Infinion midsole technology with a lightweight perforated mesh upper for a comfortable, responsive ride.
The 1080 v15 is a versatile option for runners wanting one shoe to cover a broad range of regular road training.
Lightweight, breathable upper
A perforated mesh upper promotes airflow around the foot, helping manage heat during warmer runs and longer training sessions.
The lightweight construction complements the cushioned midsole without adding unnecessary bulk, while moulded contour detailing adds structure through the upper.
