The New Balance 860 v8 provides tried-and-true stability for everyday road use. Constructed with an airy mesh upper with welded overlays, this shoe helps secure the foot in place mile after mile for responsive cushioning and reliable support when you're out for a run.
The upper is constructed with engineered mesh, the fabric upper will cover the entire foot with breathable comfort. Perforations in the fabric increase airflow; creating a better, healthier environment for the feet. A seamless construction means they can be worn comfortably without causing irritation, because when the fabric rubs the skin constantly it is likely to cause blisters and this can certainly ruin your day.
The Aysm Counter, is an asymmetrical heel support that cradles the heel relentlessly. Synthetic overlays cover the midfoot and heel with added support and a firm fit, reducing slippage in the shoe for smooth, distraction-free strides.
These shoes offer responsive cushioning and reliable support while running. The New Balance 860 v8 features a TruFuse midsole that offers sustained cushioning.
The midsole's TRUFUSE cushioning technology combines the soft ACTEVA system and firm ABZORB foam to provide theideal balance of cushioning and support. Lightweight and responsive, it keeps joints from harsh impacts on hard surfaces.
For added stability, a dual-density medial area has been placed to help contain overpronation and promote an even gait cycle. Thanks to this dual-density technology the New Balance 860 v8 helps ensure stability mile after mile, making it ideal for long distance running.
The outsole features T-BEAM technology, this technology was created to increase the torsional stiffness of the shoe without compromising its weight; the result is protection, control and an easy transition from heel to toe.
Ndurance rubber covers high-wear areas to increase the shoe's durability. Blown rubber in the forefoot provides firm grip and additional impact protection.
For athletes who want soft support and great comfort, the New Balance 860 v8 offers reliable traction while training on the road and provides a good level of durability in high-abrasion areas.
The upper is carefully designed for lightweight breathability and freedom of movement.
They also feature lightweight, flexible TPU support designed to provide in-shoe torsional stability and arch support through a unique center beam design.
The New Balance 860v8 is a neutral shoe for daily training, but with some support for a moderate overpronator foot motion.
A special model of the New Balance 860 v8 has also been released for the TCS New York City Marathon, this model features a grid pattern inspired by the "apples" of New York City, on the tongue and midsole details have been placed to indicate that these shoes celebrate the world's largest marathon.
