What you need to know about the New Balance Fresh Foam X
The New Balance Fresh Foam X is the brand's updated F midsole compound that's designed to give you a softer, more cushioned step, while keeping the same level of responsiveness you're used to, and you'll find it across multiple models, like the 1080, 880, More, Hierro, and the 1540.
New Balance introduced Fresh Foam as a new midsole technology in 2014 to deliver plush cushioning without losing stability. The material later evolved into the X family as New Balance refined the formula for an even softer, lighter feel.
The best thing about these kicks is that you can wear them with pretty much anything, from dungarees to comfortable tracksuits, and anything in between.
Different profiles of the Fresh Foam X by New Balance
The Fresh Foam X by New Balance uses engineered EVA formulations that have been shaped into sculpted chambers to give you extra cushioning and increased stability. There are a range of profiles to choose from, including the 1080 models with maximum cushioning to help you recover quicker, the 880 models designed for everyday runners, and Hierro v9, designed specifically with trail running and hiking in mind.
These men’s and women's New Balance trainers are the perfect addition to your collection, especially if you’re looking for comfort.
Mixing and matching together
There are ample ways to dress up or dress down these sneakers. Grab a pair of tracksuit bottoms, a pair of thick socks, and a graphic tee if you’re casually lounging around. You could also throw on a pair of linen trousers and a cardigan, if you're heading out for the evening and need to be more formal.
For the ladies, grab a pair of 1080 Fresh Foam Xs and match them with high-waisted leggings, an oversized hoodie, and a denim jacket if you're out on the town. The possibilities truly are endless.
