Shoe and Gear Reviews
The all-new New Balance Ellipse v1 uses Fresh Foam X for bouncy, trampoline-like cushioning, and features a lightweight upper that feels custom-made for your foot

New Balance’s brand-new daily trainer, the Ellipse v1, is the perfect shoe for any runner looking for elevated plushness during their everyday mileage. This sleek, responsive running shoe pairs the brand’s reliable cushioning and comfort with modern, updated features for a fresh take on a classic training shoe.
Fresh Foam X foam has been a longstanding, dependable staple in countless New Balance shoes, and the new Ellipse incorporates this soft, trusted cushioning in the midsole for a plush, familiar, and comfortable underfoot feel. This soft yet bouncy foam is paired with a rocker profile in the midsole for even more comfort and smooth transitions through your everyday mileage or long runs.
The unique upper on the Ellipse provides a sleek, modern look, all while optimizing all-around fit and comfort. The engineered air mesh upper is remarkably lightweight and breathable, while the strategically-placed layers improve breathability and support without adding any excess weight. The gussetted tongue and stretch laces offer a customizable fit, so you can enjoy the Ellipse’s luxurious comfort with a secure lockdown and no distractions.
