New Balance 860: Stable running shoes for overpronating runners

The New Balance 860 has long been a favorite among runners who want comfort without compromising on stability. This running shoe is designed for athletes who excessively roll their feet inward while running, a condition known as overpronation. The 860 delivers exactly what you need during long training sessions or easy-paced runs: reliable support, a solid ride, and lasting quality. Each version builds upon the success of the previous one so you can always count on a stable running experience with this shoe.

The outsole and medial reinforcements are designed to guide your foot every step of the way. As a result, the New Balance 860 helps reduce your risk of injury and supports your gait where it’s needed most. Even with intensive use, the shoe remains comfortable and supportive so you can stay focused on your runs.

Features of the Fresh Foam X 860

The New Balance 860 is equipped with Fresh Foam X, a soft yet responsive cushioning that effectively absorbs shock and adds comfort with every stride. This technology allows the shoe to combine cushioning with a responsive ride so you enjoy maximum comfort without losing contact with the road.

The medial support on the inside is specifically designed to correct overpronation. This enhances stability throughout the entire gait cycle. The upper is made from lightweight and breathable mesh to ensure ventilation so your feet stay cool and dry during workouts. Every detail contributes to the controlled, comfortable and dependable experience this shoe offers.

Perfect fit for different foot types

The fit of the New Balance 860 is designed with comfort in mind for every foot shape. The roomy forefoot construction allows your toes to naturally spread out. This contributes to a stable and relaxed running stride. Additionally, the model is available in multiple width sizes so it's easier to find a version that fits your feet perfectly.

The heel features soft foam that comfortably conforms to your Achilles without pinching. The 6-point lacing system lets you securely tighten the shoe over the instep, providing a snug fit without pressure points. Every element of this shoe is built to offer long-lasting comfort, regardless of your running style or training duration.

Who is the New Balance 860 perfect for?

The New Balance 860 is the ideal choice for runners who need extra stability while running. If your ankles roll inward during the stride, this shoe provides the reliable support needed to correct that. Thanks to its balanced cushioning, the 860 is suitable for both easy long runs and faster-paced workouts on paved roads.

The durable materials make the shoe a great option for athletes who train frequently, even multiple times a week. This combination of support and comfort makes the New Balance 860 a favorite among beginners seeking confidence and experienced runners who rely on dependable shoes for long distances.

The evolution of the 860 series

Over the years, the 860 series has continuously evolved with improvements to the upper and cushioning system. However, the foundation of the model has always remained the same: maximum stability without sacrificing comfort. This consistency is reflected in the reliable running experience offered by each new version so you always know what to expect from your next pair.
