About this deal

DPT/Footwear Science: B (Decent use of multiple methodsincluding guidance lines, sole flare and posting. Nothing overly new or impressive. Heel is actually a little clunky and post could be better integrated to smooth this out. ) Pronation related injuries include posterior tibialis injuries (tendinis/tendinosis/muscle strains), Achilles problems (tendinopathies), plantar fasciitis/iopathy, patellar tendon problems and anterior tibialis/medial tibial stress syndrome (Willems et al., 2021). However, other running related injuries are likely to not be influence by stability methods, so if you have anything besides the above, being prescribed stability shoes to prevent them is questionable advice. HOWEVER, if you find stability shoes comfortable and they make running more enjoyable, that is a great reason to use them as we know how important comfort is when choosing shoes (Nigg et al., 2015). If you find stability shoes uncomfortable and don't have any of the above, then the same logic applies. Find what works for your body and remember that if you do need stability, there are many different types of stability in footwear now. So find the type that works best for you if you need any and remember that a little variety also helps. As you know from our comprehensive guide to running shoes for flat feet, a stability shoe often provides a solid choice for runners with flat feet. It can help maximize comfort and minimize the risk of specific types of injuries more common to flat footed runners. Fast Facts About This Offering Performance: B ( Solid shoe for getting mileage in. Rides on the firmer side Heel a little clunky, but forefoot is very smooth)

New Balance Fresh Foam X 860v12 Review - DOCTORS OF RUNNING New Balance Fresh Foam X 860v12 Review - DOCTORS OF RUNNING

The women’s version of the 860v12 is noticeably lighter than the previous model, while the men’s version remains almost identical in weight. Both the 860v12 and the 860v11 maintain the same reassuring stability runners expect from this longtime favorite. Fleet Feet reviewers appreciated the spacious toe box and snug midfoot. They also enjoyed the soft and simplistic style of the upper. Overall, reviewers appreciated the seamless blend of firmness and liveliness found in the New Balance 860v13. The New Balance Fresh Foam 860 v12 is a shoe that's ideal specifically for runners who overpronate (heel rolls outward). The 860 is a daily trainer, so better suited for recovery runs or slower-paced training. As you would expect from the New Balance 800 series, there is a lot of cushioning everywhere, including the heel collar and the tongue. This, along with cushioning on the sole, were critical factors for people suffering from foot pain (such as plantar fasciitis). This was part of the reason the 860v12 was one of the our top choices for runners with flat feet and plantar fasciitis together. We also recommend the New Balance 1080 for runners with plantar fasciitis. Conclusion and Final ThoughtsThe midsole made from both FuelCell and Fresh Foam X provides a comfortable stable ride. The dual-density medial post provided stability without being noticeable. The midsole absorbed impact nicely along with giving a small energy return. The FuelCell provides a solid foundation while the Fresh Foam X added a needed bounce.

Fresh FoamX 860v12 SHOE REVIEW: New Balance Fresh FoamX 860v12

Rear lateral view of the shoe. Modest heel cushioning seen. The 860v12 offers a slimmer profile than it's predecessor.The Air Mesh makes its debut in the 860v12 and makes quite a statement. I found this material to be adaptable to my feet along with being breathable. It is almost breathable to a fault because my toes experienced some coldness while reviewing them in the winter.
