When did ‘stability’ become a bad thing to running shoe companies? Did runners who need stability abandon the tried and true technologies, or did young marketing execs decide they knew better than their customers?

@assiemodem6654 Ай бұрын

The latter, hence why everyone deals with injuries. Asics and NB are stepping up and closing the gap in the market

@ck346 15 күн бұрын

You have these young marketing people that like to make unnecessary changes. Not every shoe needs to be soft. New Balance is the worst of testers of these 100lb people and say the shoe is perfect. In reality that is not who is purchasing the shoe.

I just went to return a couple pair of Altra brand shoes I JUST purchased yesterday to find on sale with amazon today. The store I went in just so happened to have these and I tried them and had to have em. I've been big on stability. I actually liked them a little more than the vongo v6 I got from them a couple of weeks ago so I'm taking them back later today. lol I'm a nurse and predominately got these for walking around at work in a hospital, so glad he mentioned the "got them for work" element.

Glad to hear you liked the 860. It is one of our favorites in the midweight cushion stability shoe category. We hope they work well for you!

I have the v12. My everyday walking shoes. I live near the New Balance factory and get all the latest updates on sale

@ck346 Ай бұрын

With this update the 860 has left it’s roots and has minimal arch support now. This is no longer a stability shoe. My 880v10 are way more stable. A friend is a podiatrist and this was his go to shoe. Off to other brands after years of a great supportive shoe.

@RunMoore 25 күн бұрын

While we always like to use arch support and stability interchangeably, they are different. Arch support is how high the arch profile is and how much it supports the arch. Stability is the technology built into the shoe to help prevent overpronation (sometimes supination as well). The 860v14 still has good stability for overpronation, but it definitely has a noticeably less aggressive arch profile.

@deshpillay6716 19 күн бұрын

@RunMoore Well Said. Thanks for that. I'm an over pronator who has relied on traditional stability shoes in the past (arch support, medial post etc..) however the modern stability technology has given us the 4D guidance system and the new V14 plate that has ensured genuine stability in a less intrusive way.

@ck346 15 күн бұрын

@@RunMoore The arch support is a drastic reduction than the past versions. Even the 880V11 I find more stable and has more arch support than the newer 860V14. I really see no reason for New Balance to make every shoe like standing on marsh mellows and taking away the arch support in every model which they are on the role of. I have a good friend that is a podiatrist and New Balance was her go to shoe she said for years and now since New Balance has radically changed all the shoes to a very soft, not as supportive platform she dropped them.

Great video as always. I totally remember when NB reserved the 860's for run specialty only. Even the 1260 was not reserved. I also remember when some vendors sent out letters to all the small run specialty stores that we all were not allowed to sell their shoes on our own websites or third party sites. Thanks some vendors for helping out the small guys. 🤣 All jokes (not really) aside the current 880 is seriously fantastic as with the new 840. Vongo is interesting, but that rounded heel can feel odd for some just as it does on the 1080. I like how this new 860 compliments the Vongo's neutral support. Anyway..............these are great videos! Please support small independently owned shops like Run Moore!

Hi Steve, what in your opinion would be the top 2 or 3 shoes to try for supination? I also need 4E width and have bunion issues…all a result of previous foot injuries. No real running….,only walking and some occasional light running. Max cushion would be good too as my injuries were underfoot. Sorry about the tough ask! Much appreciate a response from you.

Are these good shoes for plantar fasciitis? Thank you if anyone has any information

@Joe_Blo Ай бұрын

860 sales were protected to keep the price up because it was sold by doctors & orthotic specialists. The previous versions really needed to be fitted, and would not have pleased a lot of runners compared with the 880 & 1080. Its significantly heavier & clunkier. Returns from online sales would have been high had they allowed them.

@laurenshade1442 Ай бұрын

I'm confused. How does this compare to the Vongo v6? I feel like I'm the only person that responded well to the Vongo v5. The v6 doesn't feel like a stability shoe anymore, does the 860? Most importantly which one has the most medial support? Harder to find these days...

@DiggerPrints0814 21 күн бұрын

Starting my running journey at the beginning of last year, I was looking for something with cushion and everyday mileage. I'm currently at the end of life for my third pair of V13's (Approx 1000 ks per pair) I'm about to dive into a pair of V14's and hoping they go as well as the V13's :)

I use the kayano30 but i feel that the shoes is very big but same time it works amazing good for over pronation, the new 860 looks very nice , should i buy it?

@RunMoore 23 күн бұрын

If you want a lighter shoe with a lower stack height and don't mind a little less cushion, the 860 is a good option to check out. It will still help prevent your overpronation with the plate in the midsole and the dual-density foam, only in a more minimal package.

Vongo 6 or 860v14 ? For overall performance and stability

@RunMoore 25 күн бұрын

I find that the Vongo can be a bit too soft and sluggish feeling if you want the best performance. Otherwise, in terms of stability, they are both about even. The 860 has a slightly straighter last giving it a hint of extra inherent stability, but the technologies the two shoes use are identical.

@carlosestrada8851 Ай бұрын

As a supinator not for me. Bit great review 👍🏼

@PLANETWATERMELON Ай бұрын

True. I would look at the Vongo from NB or the 880 from NB. I personally think the 880 is a really great shoe. If you want MAX cushioning from NB I have a lot of customers who like the 840 from NB and it's very well priced for the amount of cushioning at $140.

@mmjose76 Ай бұрын

What would you recommend for supination?

@PLANETWATERMELON Ай бұрын

@@mmjose76 In the NB line up the ones I mentioned in my previous comment. The 880, Congo or for max cushioning the 840. 1080 is over priced since there is the 880 as it is so good and more stable than the 1080.

@JAKETHESNAKKE Ай бұрын

@@PLANETWATERMELONdon’t you want max cushion for supination? The 880 is the least cushion one out of the lineup so not sure why you would recommend the 880?

@PLANETWATERMELON Ай бұрын

@@JAKETHESNAKKE Great question. Not always. If the shoe is uber cushy and has a higher/thicker stack height that can result in more supination. Think of it like suspension in a car. Firmer suspension reduces foot...I mean car lean and rotation. Hope that helps. P.S. I have been fitting runners and professionally analyzing gait for over 25 years and have owned a run specialty shop for much of that time. Cheers!

Ugh so upset they moved this to an 8mm drop, I need a 10 due to injury. It would’ve been perfect otherwise, especially with the plate extending further to the forefoot.

@RunMoore 25 күн бұрын

Not just New Balance, but a lot of brands have been changing their shoes to an 8 mm drop. Asics is another big one where 3 of their main models, the Cumulus, Nimbus, and GT-2000 are all at 8 mm compared to the previous generation being at 10 mm. Brooks and Mizuno still have relatively higher heel drops in their flagship models. Both the Ghost from Brooks and Wave Rider from Mizuno still have the original 12 mm high heel drop.

Terrible review. You said nothing about the firmness of the midsole, how the midsole is designed, whether it is as supporive as the prior version, arch support, what the pronation features are, etc.
