Saved the Day
I bought these shoes for comfort and support to stand in the pit at a recent Bruce Springsteen concert. They held up incredibly well for this 70 year old fan during a seven hour stint including before and after the three hour show. I think that Bruce was perhaps wearing the same or similar shoe. A great purchase!

Perfect cushion
I’ve been wearing these for years for running and got a pair for my dad who was having arch issues and needed the bounce. Now we have matching pairs!

Great Easy Run Shoe
I've been enjoying these shoes for easy runs. I have picked up the pace occasionally in them but I wouldn't reach for them for a fast paced effort.

good shoe
I have only ran a few miles in these so far and they felt easy to break into and very well cushioned. Haven’t tried them out for runs too well yet but a very good looking shoe.
James Dobrowolski
Most comfortable running shoe
Highly recommend this shoe. Not the lightest shoe, but definitely one of the most comfortable. Highly recommend.

1080 amateur runner
The 1080 has become my go-to shoe as an amateur runner. I’m a fan of the energy return each step has. Not the most supportive but worth the trade off in cushioning. Also a fan of the relatively low heel-to-toe drop. Laces could be a little longer. I’d pick these over Hoka Bondi all day.

A more secure improvement from the 13 [Staff Review]
More snug fit pinches a little in the midfoot, cushion is firmer and does not squish as much with each step

Love These 1080’s
These are some of the most comfortable sneakers I have owned! I’ve had plantar facetious surgery and haven’t been able to find a sneaker that feels good. The Foam Innersole is great and the stiffness of the shoe keeps my foot from over extending. Happy Feet!
Steven Peterson
Super Comfortable..
Love these kicks, supportive yet soft on the landing.. On my feet a lot at work, so I want something that takes care of my feet.. Love the feel and the fit of my Fresh Foam X!

Love [Staff Review]
My first New Balance Shoe and my first real max cushion shoe. I love them! The low-ish drop, the springy yet soft foam, the upper I love pretty much everything about this shoe
James Jang
Comfortable
I have wide feet so i was worried about getting the wrong width but I got them in the ee width and jt fits amazingly. The cushion is so comfortable. Not too soft and just responsive enough. The only issue is that its making a squeak sound from the cushion.

New Balance Men’s Fresh Foam X 1080 v14
Amazing foam that makes you feel like you’re running on clouds. Great daily trainer designed for those easier miles but can do it all! Only complaint is that it was a little small for my usual size so I would go a 0.5 size up. Additionally, I felt it was a bit too narrow in the standard version so I would go with the wide version. Overall amazing shoe though!

Great shoes
A really good rendition of the 1080. Cushiony without being clunky.
