The men's wide fit New Balance Fresh Foam X 860v14 is crafted for road running, offering superior pronation support, making it an excellent choice for everyday training. As a cornerstone of New Balance’s road running collection, the 860 series has evolved with subtle improvements, but the 860v14 brings significant technological advancements. It addresses over-pronation by promoting natural foot movement within the shoe, thereby strengthening the foot over time. The shoe’s midsole, composed of dual-layer foam, delivers a soft initial feel while maintaining stability. Additionally, the heel-to-forefoot drop has been reduced from 10mm to 8mm, enhancing impact absorption and overall running comfort.
