New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο review

New Balance Herren NB NUMERIC 212 PRO COURT in Schwarz Braun, New Balance Homens Raheem Sterling Furon V6 Pro FG Shadow of My Dreams that is affordable. I most appreciated the springy cushioning and the sock-like upper, which made for a comfortable running experience over shorter distances. However, runners seeking a traditional shoe with a greater level of arch support are advised to look elsewhere. 

Overall, I very highly recommend the New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο for those who prefer low-mileage running.

The New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο fits true to size

This fits true to size and width. I am a standard 9/9.5 medium width on a Brannock device, and the New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο fits just as I would expect in a 9.5. 

Secure, snug foothold

The sock-like upper of this New Balance model is flexible and stretchy, as are the laces. This allows for a very secure, snug foothold. My feet felt like they were wrapped in a soft, comfortable sling during my runs. This prevented any chafing or hot spots from occurring.

The gusseted shoe tongue 2WXY helped to secure my feet by preventing the tongue from slipping down into the shoe or to the side.

The FuelCell material in the shoe’s midsole provides ample cushioning with a medium amount of energy return. The cushioning used in this shoe is firm enough to support the foot but springy enough to absorb a lot of the impact from running. The FuelCell material extends the full length of the shoe. My feet felt propelled through the gait cycle, yet I could still feel the ground (as I prefer). 

However, for running more than a short-to-moderate distance on pavement, I would recommend a shoe with more substantial cushioning. My feet started to feel somewhat tired by mile 4 on most of my runs in this shoe. This doesn’t happen to me when I run in my typical shoe (ASICS Cumulus). I would describe the cushioning in this model as perfect for a 5K!

The New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο boasts a plastic external heel counter which adds some rigidity to the heel cup without sacrificing the shoe’s low weight. I found this heel counter to be very effective at providing rearfoot stability and preventing unwanted heel slippage during the gait cycle. It seemed firm enough to hold my heels in place but not so firm as to cause chafing.

The lower drop isn’t going to work for everyone

This running shoe offers a 6mm heel-to-toe drop. As someone who is used to a traditional running shoe, the change to a 6mm drop required some adjustment. I could feel my calf muscles Orange harder in this model as I ran. This meant that my runs became a bit more of a workout than I was used to! 

This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. In fact, from a strengthening perspective, I enjoyed the change of pace. But the lower drop isn’t going to work for everyone. 

If you are coming from a higher-drop model, I recommend easing into the New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο by rotating them with your traditional runners. Try them first on very short runs (2-3 miles) and work your way into longer distances. If this feels good, then the lower drop is probably Orange for you.

I found this running shoe to be very flexible during my runs. It wasn’t stiff at all, even right out of the box. The toe area flexed nicely during the gait cycle. The shoe 2WXY did not bend too much at the midfoot, which is as it should be. This facilitated a very natural-feeling run.

The ripple-patterned outsole of the FuelCell Echo includes the NDurance compound, which is a harder rubber that withstands wear during road running. I found the outsole to be very grippy on roads and sidewalks. I felt secure during my runs, never concerned with slipping. 

The outsole 2WXY extends back behind the heel, adding some extra rearfoot balance and support. Note that the pattern of this outsole grips to roads and treadmills, not offroad terrain.

The FuelCell Echo needed no break-in at all. I felt like all parts of the shoe clicked with me straight from the box. I simply laced them up and went for a 4-mile run right away without issue!

Although I have only owned the New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο for a few weeks, the shoe has held up very well so far and appears durable. The materials have not come unstitched despite multiple runs. The outsoles did not appear overly broken down despite use on rough pavement. I expect that this shoe will last me for quite some time.

Weighing in at a scant 10.1oz/286g, this New Balance running shoe is one of the lightest I have ever tried in my 23 years of running. The light design allowed me to achieve great times on 3-4 mile runs!

The upper of the FuelCell Echo is very breathable. It is ultra-thin and perforated throughout, allowing air to pass over the foot during running. My feet never felt the least bit overheated during any of my runs in this model. The upper of this shoe is 2WXY seamless, to prevent irritation.

The New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο provides a heel collar that rises up above the Achilles area. This heel collar holds the rearfoot in place. However, the extreme height of this collar slightly irritated my feet until I wore them with a higher-collared sock. At that point, there was no more issue. I recommend using higher socks with this model of shoe to prevent any rearfoot rubbing or chafing. 

Very reasonably priced

At £110, the New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο is a very affordable shoe. It is about £30 cheaper than other New Balance 420 "Suede Nylon" Pack (the average price is £130). This makes it an excellent choice for runners seeking an affordable performance model.

The style of the New Balance Fresh Foam-X 1080v12 για Τρέξιμο is very modern with a few retro details. With the sock-like upper and bright colour patterns on the midsole and outsole, this shoe looks very contemporary. It 2WXY reminds me of some of the designs that Nike has used since the 1980s on its lighter running models. This FuelCell Echo is a performance running shoe that could probably work for casual wear too.

One additional feature of the New Balance FuleCell Echo is the inclusion of a large patch of reflective material on the heel cup of both shoes. This feature is generally included in more expensive running shoe models. It allows runners to feel safer when running at night.

Conclusion

In summary, the New Balance Fulecell Echo is a solid performer that offers an incredibly lightweight design at an affordable price.
