Achieve Unmatched Comfort, Softness, and Responsiveness on Your Everyday Miles
The New Balance 1080 has become renowned as one of the softest and most plush high-cushion shoes on the market. And while the 1080v15 maintains this soft, pillowy feel, this newest iteration in the lineup features a new look and new midsole technology for the smoothest ride yet.
The biggest upgrade in the 1080v15 can be found underfoot, in the new Infinion midsole foam. This brand-new foam blends the 1080’s signature softness with a springy, energetic feel, offering enhanced energy return and maximum comfort throughout daily miles and long runs. This Infinion foam is also more resilient and durable than previous foam technology, so you can enjoy longer-lasting comfort and performance.
Every part of the sole is designed with this spring and bounciness in mind, including the durable rubber outsole. Along with improving durability, this rubber outsole is strategically designed to deliver springy toe-offs and smooth transitions.
Finally, the upgraded contoured mesh upper not only offers a new, sleek look, but it also plays a key role in providing maximum comfort during runs. The soft mesh offers a snug and secure fit around the foot, while the perforated construction enhances breathability and reduces weight. So if you’re looking for as much softness and comfort as possible throughout your runs, every aspect of this 1080 is designed to help you reach this goal.
