Features

Built for runners and walkers who want reliable support without sacrificing comfort, the New Balance Fresh Foam X 860 v15 delivers the best of both in one dependable package.

New Balance's innovative Stability Plane technology uses a wider base and elevated sidewalls to guide your stride and keep you stable, while a rocker profile keeps your momentum moving forward naturally for smooth, effortless transitions during your daily steps

Details:

  • Upper: A breathable engineered mesh upper works with the wider base and sidewall design to create a secure, stable lockdown that keeps your foot comfortably in place — whether you're running your favorite route or spending a long day on your feet.
  • Midsole: Dual-layered Fresh Foam X delivers a softer top layer for plush, comfortable landings and a firmer bottom layer for reliable support and stability. Stability Plane technology provides the guidance your stride needs without compromising the cushioned underfoot experience.
  • Outsole: A durable outsole with a rocker geometry delivers smooth heel-to-toe transitions and reliable traction for daily training miles and long days on your feet.

Great stability sneaker with cushion

Great sneaker not too soft where you feel like you will trip over the heel.

New Balance is my go to sneaker

Linda W 2 weeks ago Verified Purchase

A perfect fit every time! I wear custom inserts and they fit with no problem. This sneaker was recommended to me by my podiatrist because of the larger toe box.

Women's | New Balance Fresh Foam X 860 v15

Since experiencing hip and back problems, I have gotten rid of every pair of shoes I owned. My closet now only contains 6 pairs of these shoes in various colors:) I have never worn such a comfortable shoe!

Unparalleled comfort

Kelli F 1 month ago Verified Purchase

I had been running in the Brooks Glycerine and assumed Iโ€™d get the same shoe again. However, when I tried on the New Balance, they fit like a glove. They provide a good level of stability for my flat feet that slightly pronate but not so much stability that my feet or knees ache. Itโ€™s like walking/running on a cloud. Super happy with my purchase! I just wish they had more color options!

These are so much better than v14.

Emma P 1 month ago Verified Purchase

I am liking these shoes. These are much better than v14. The v14's felt like they were pushing my feet outwards. These feel much more stable and are keeping my feet in line. The cushioning is just right and feels even on my whole foot. There is ample cushioning in the forefoot and ample room in the forefoot as well--these are not narrow shoes which is refreshing. My only complaint is that the tongue tends to bunch on my left foot but that's pretty minor. I do feel these run a little short. I wear a Women's 10.5-11 depending on the brand and needed an 11 in these.

Great tennis shoes

Lilliana A 2 months ago Verified Purchase

I love the fit and the fact that theyโ€™re so comfortable and at the same time provide a lot of support and I was looking for both characteristics. I can walk a lot with them and my feet donโ€™t feel tired. Good buy!
