New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080 v15 Men's Running Shoes 2E Wide
The New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080 v15 Men's Running Shoes 2E Wide are premium cushioned road running shoes for runners who need additional width through the foot. Finished in White / Satsuma Orange, this 2E Wide model combines New Balance's new Infinion midsole technology with a lightweight perforated mesh upper for daily training, recovery runs and longer distances.
The v15 introduces Infinion cushioning, designed to deliver lasting softness with responsive energy return across regular training kilometres.
The new Infinion midsole is designed to provide long-lasting cushioning while maintaining a responsive feel underfoot.
It absorbs impact through each landing before returning energy into the next stride, giving the 1080 v15 the combination of cushioning and responsiveness needed for everyday road running. This makes it particularly well suited to runners building regular mileage or spending longer periods on their feet.
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 provides additional structure and gives the v15 its updated appearance.
A durable rubber outsole provides dependable traction for regular running on sealed roads and shared pathways.
Combined with the high-cushioning midsole, the outsole makes the 1080 v15 a versatile option for runners looking for one shoe to cover everyday kilometres, easier recovery sessions and longer road runs.
2E Wide fit
This model comes in a men's 2E Wide width, providing additional room compared with a standard-width running shoe.
The extra space makes it a strong option for runners with wider feet or those who prefer more room as their feet naturally expand over longer distances. The design maintains a secure feel through the heel and midfoot while providing additional space through the forefoot.
Who are the New Balance 1080 v15 2E Wide best for?
The 1080 v15 2E Wide is best suited to men who want a highly cushioned road running shoe with additional width.
