What's the difference?

Fresh Foam 880 vs 860?

Both these New Balance run shoes are great for daily training. The 880 is a neutral shoe while the 860 is a stability run shoe - offering support for people who have flat feet or who overpronate. Choose the 860 if you need extra structured support.

Fresh Foam 1080 vs Rebel?

The 1080 delivers a cushioned, smooth ride with Fresh Foam X comfort, making it ideal for everyday miles and longer runs. The Rebel is a lighter, more flexible trainer with a responsive feel, perfect for runners who want a faster, more energetic ride.

Both are versatile options — the choice comes down to your preference of maximum comfort or a lighter, more responsive feel.

FuelCell SuperComp Trainer vs Elite?

Both the SuperComp Elite and Trainer feature carbon plate technology. The Elite is lighter and more aggressive, designed to maximise speed and efficiency on race day. The Trainer, alternatively, offers more cushioning and durability, providing a smoother, more forgiving ride that is better suited for long training runs and higher mileage.

What's to like about New Balance?

Fresh Foam X

This is what keeps New Balance running shoes feeling soft and smooth mile after mile. This cushioning technology delivers lasting comfort, absorbs impact and provides responsive energy return with every stride.

FuelCell

FuelCell foam delivers a lightweight, responsive ride with high energy return, helping runners feel faster and more efficient with every step.

Energy Arc

The Energy Arc found in New Balance racing shoes combines a carbon-fibre plate with a strategically shaped channel midsole design to maximise energy return. This creates a smooth, springy ride that helps drive you forward with every stride.
