Features
The New Balance Fresh Foam 860v14 takes your reliable stability trainer and makes it even better.
New underfoot technology in the latest 860 delivers a supremely cushioned yet highly stable ride. Built on a wider platform with elevated sidewalls, the midsole creates a guidance frame that eases you through your stride. Then, New Balance flipped the script by using a softer, more responsive Fresh Foam X compound on top where your foot makes contact, combined with a denser foam below for support and durability.
The result is a stable, soft and responsive underfoot experience that absorbs impact and energizes your every step.
Details:
- Upper: The engineered mesh upper provides all-day comfort with a secure, breathable fit. New Balance also partnered with Repreve to incorporate recycled bottle content, making the 860v14 equal parts performance and sustainability.
- Midsole: The top layer of the midsole uses New Balance’s cushy and energetic Fresh Foam X materials. Underneath sits New Balance’s brand-new EVA Film Stability technology which includes a wider landing platform throughout, elevated sidewalls around the foot that encourage forward motion and a flared heel that eases you through your stride.
- Outsole: The integrated outsole design promotes forefoot stiffness for confident toe-offs.

What’s New
New Balance totally reimagined the Fresh Foam 860 for its 14th iteration. The midsole comes upgraded with an evolved Fresh Foam X material and an extra 2-4 mm of stack height compared to the previous version. However, the biggest change comes from their brand-new EVA Film Stability technology that frames a wider, more dense midsole material underneath to give you a stable and reliable platform to run on. According to New Balance, the 860v14 also has greater displacement (cushioning) and increased energy return compared to the v13.
Who It’s Best For
For those who have come to rely on the 860 for mild-to-moderate overpronation, the latest version lives up to its reputation as a reliable stability trainer for daily runs and workouts that doesn't compromise on step-in comfort.
Why You’ll Love It
You’ll love the upgraded midsole of the 860 v14 that gently guides your foot through its stride and gives you a pillowy soft ride.
