Who should buy the New Balance Tênis Running Fresh Foam More V3 More v3

Anyone looking at the Hoka Clifton or Bondi, or that’s in the market for a max-cushioned, long-run/recovery-day shoe should consider the NB FF More v3. 

New Balance Fuelcell Prism V2 Men's Running Shoes.

If you’re training for upcoming races, running daily, have a wider foot, or are a heavier runner, I think you should buy this shoe. Treat your legs well, the More v3 is the ticket. 

Who should not buy it 

Don’t buy the New Balance Tênis Running Fresh Foam More V3 More v3 if:

• You need a race day shoe. Even though the rockered design can work at faster paces this is not a speed shoe. I recommend checking out the BEAMS Bring Back the RC205 for New Balance Colab
• If you have narrow feet. It’s a wide platform with a lot of volume and may not work well for narrower-footed runners. The new balance mens 327 greyblack size 65 greyblack may be better.

More v3 runs wide 

The More v3 has a flexible upper and accommodates a lot of foot shapes, but if you have a narrow foot it may feel roomy. 

Wide-footed runners will rejoice though as the More v3 has plenty of room. 

The heel pocket is deep too. If you like higher-cut shoes, this feels like a mid-top shoe with its voluminous heel.

Comfort, comfort, and MORE comfort 

Tecnologias New balance Q Speed Jacquard Kurzärmeliges T-shirt!

The upper is padded to the nines. Hell, it has a 9.9mm thick tongue to lusciously drape over the top of your foot (compare that to the average of 5.5mm and you get the point). 

New Balance also realised the moulded heel cup in v2 was not ideal and swapped it out for a more traditional padded heel cup/ankle collar that hugs your foot nicely. 

But the upper is just the icing on top of the cake. The insanely thick slab of soft New Balance “Fresh Foam” underfoot is the show stopper. This midsole material is plush, and soft with every step and the More v3 has more Fresh Foam than any other New Balance shoe. 

This shoe is very close in design and purpose to the Hoka Bondi 7 and I just thought it was too stiff. The Bondi fits heavier runners really well, and the ample amounts of foam underfoot were not that useful in my tests. 

The More v3 however, nailed the foam density, and it’s a real treat for your feet and legs no matter the runner’s weight. 

The ride leaves you speechless 

I’ve compared this shoe to the Bondi for obvious reasons, but the ride really sets it apart. 

NB added a bit more rocker in this update and it feels way better. For a max-cushioned shoe, it surprisingly rolls along smoothly. To be honest, I’d compare this more to the Hoka Clifton 7 in its performance (Buty new balance gc515bt czarne) than the Bondi.

Another thing NB got right with the More v3 is the platform width. This is a wide shoe, at 119.2mm in the forefoot and 102.1mm in the heel (average shoes are 112.6mm/89.2mm) it’s super stable which is needed since the Fresh Foam historically in my opinion has been a touch too soft. 

Funktioner New balance Breda Tränare Classic 373V2 New Balance Womens 327 Zipper is one that comes to mind, it was just too unstable. Problem solved here though, well done NB. 

I loved running in this shoe, it’s soft, but not unstable, it’s rockered and efficient even though it’s wide and heavy, and it can go quickly when needed, which other max shoes struggle with. 

One thing to mention, with this much foam under your foot, it has the m997nak to harden up significantly when cold. In our freezer test this firmed up 58.4% (compared to 26.4% on average) so just know on really cold days it may not feel like clouds and pillows. 

Zero adaptation period on the More v3

Zero break-in needed. This shoe is luxury from day one. Slide your foot in, lace it up, and head off into the sunset. 

New Balance Tênis Running Fresh Foam More V3 More v3 needs a diet

At 10.4 ounces (296g) in men’s US9, this is not a lightweight shoe. How could it be, there’s 37.5mm of stack in the heel and 29.7mm in the forefoot. There’s a tonne of foam underfoot. 

It’s one of only a few gripes, this shoe needs to be lighter. The Clifton is almost an ounce lighter. If NB could solve the weight problem and cut an ounce or two from it, this shoe would be an A+!

It’s a tank

This shoe is stout, durability should not be a concern. There’s a full rubber outsole covering insane amounts of foam, and the thick upper is able to withstand any abrasion issues. This shoe should easily go over 500 miles. 

Stay on the hard pack

Grip could be better. Although there’s a rubber outsole, it’s wide and flat and anything loose underfoot makes it squirrely. 

Stick to the pavement. 

More v3 best suited as a recovery shoe

This shoe is best for long, slow, recovery runs. It’s a break for your feet and legs. But surprisingly its rockered design is aggressive enough that you can pick up the pace. 

I ran some 5 min/mile paced intervals in these and they went… I don’t think I’d buy this as a tempo shoe obviously, but if you need to chase down the ice cream truck in them it shouldn’t be a problem.

Gripe #2 they don’t breathe well

Only a few gripes here, but this is a big one. These are hot. 

Granted it's mid-summer, even Canada is seeing 121F (what’s happening!!) but they run warm. Even in the cool AC of a gym, they were toasty. 

They have a tonne of padding and layers of fabric on the upper, and it’s just not ideal for super hot days. 

They only scored a 1 out of 5 on our breathability tests. As you can see, some heat escapes from the bottom of the tongue but the upper itself barely lets any fog out at all

NB FF More v3 hugs your feet 

Zero issues with style in the More v3. I think updating the heel really helped. This shoe just hugged my foot well and there was no movement.

Of course, I like a gusseted tongue, and the More v3 doesn’t have one, but I guess it would just be more fabric, making it heavier and hotter, so it’s fine without. 

More v3 costs more

The price is a bit steep. At £170 it’s not a bargain. But you do get a lot of shoe for your money, and if you want your legs to feel like they had a day at the spa, it costs… 

Last gripe then go buy this shoe

I’ll stop after I get this off my chest. They are ugly. Sorry I just don’t like the looks of Maximalist Shoes. They are clunky and chunky and wide, and tall, and…. I wish they could feel this good and look sexier, but they don’t. 

If these were all white with a blue N on the side, they’d be on my grandpa’s feet. 

NB, make these sexier and put them on a diet and you’ll have more than just my attention, you’ll have my dollars.
