1080v12 - After 100 Miles

[@Thecsyu]

Yes it is I’ve logged more than 1000 miles on the shoe and still going strong, unbelievable!

[@walternyc]

Awesome all around shoe. As a 59 year old runner this is my perfect long run shoe.

[@danidanara6427]

I have a pair of this as a rotation to Hoka Clifton. I feel very comfortable with this, but I feel it too plush. I need plush but also a right amount of firmness like Clifton. But 1080 midsole is too plush, but it is still OK. It's good for long walk and recovery. The upper is fantastically comfortable to adapt your foot shape.

[@Emolokz]

I agree that you don't need to size down for this shoe, I've tried them on and own them myself, and I wouldn't want to have sized down. It would have caused discomfort after running for longer periods of time.

[@genmysters]

This shoe is amazing for people who have Neuropathy or issues with their feet. Expensive but when you are dealing with pain on a daily basis this shoe helps. I am about to purchase my second pair. First pair lasted me about 8 months running 3-5 miles a day. Shoe is true to size 13 for me. With Neuropathy having a good fitting shoe with a toe box that does not constrict your toes this shoe fits the bill perfectly.

[@bassclef283]

As a diabetic I suffer sometimes from Neuropathy. Do you recommend the wide version vs the standard?

[@genmysters]

@@bassclef283 So the toe box on this is quite large to begin with. I got a standard width and I have big feet size 13 plenty of room. I need large toe box because my neuropathy bothers me in tight shoes. If you normally get a wide you can try it. I just didn't need them in these shoes.

[@genmysters]

@@bassclef283 So update. I just purchased another pair since mine were wearing after 1 year of use. The older pair are still very comfortable and I will wear them when I do yard work. I can't explain the difference between the level of relief I have now. I think I will be buying them every 6 months.

@@genmysters I got a pair recently and yes they're very comfortable. I'm thinking of getting another pair.

[@kenklee4]

Agreed with you on the review! Very comfy and amazing for easy runs.

[@Maloha486]

I think it's perfect for people with truly wide feet from end to end. As for me, I need a wide toebox but snug heel which makes the 1080 a little too much shoe for me. It's still solid with a bit of lacing trickery but I will have to keep searching for my perfect shoe. Considering the Gel-Nimbus or Cumulus 24.

[@Rulon-bo1ig]

I'm also looking for the perfect shoe for my wide feet and thin ankle. I've decided I'm going to get the 880v12 for starters. Why is the 1080 too much for you? Is it the look?

[@wynparksook5286]

Great content as usual. I downsize half a size and it’s perfect for me. Looking back I think the combination of 880 and More (and another speed shoe) would be a great combination that covers pretty much all of the runs. Still I enjoyed the 1080v12 very much.

[@edgariva12]

Which do you prefer

[@vincentvenieris2185]

You have me interested in the 880 now, Ko! Thanks!

[@ArizonaHotSauce]

Me too. I watched his video on the 880 v12 and because he raved about it so much I put it on my list of shoes to get along with the Puma Velocity NITRO 2 and the ASICS NOOSA TRI 14. The NITRO 2 had raves from all over the interwebs, and recently the NOOSA Tri 14 had a premium 8 score from Seth Demoor. It's tough liking all these shoes but can only run with one at a time. I regret buying two pairs of the Novablas 2 even though those are also super awesome.

[@davidohearn8047]

Nice review like always! I did have to go a size down and it worked out for me. I’m a 10.5 and went 10. I do have a wider foot but went standard and it feels great. Almost went with the wide but glad I held off. I have about 50miles in mine right now. It has been good for a nice slow and go Recovery option for sure.

[@GSUnit21]

Have they loosen up a little bit after running?? I’m in between sizes but prefer a snugger fit I’m afraid if I get the bigger size it will be too big after a few runs?? Please help!!

[@davidohearn8047]

@@GSUnit21 from the reviews that I have watched outside of this one. Most have said to go 1/2 size down. I think if I would have stayed true to size or went up a size they would have had to much room in them since this shire already has some give to the upper. Hope that helped some.

[@jorgecastillo8289]

I’m loving my pair of 1080v12 as a recovery shoe and because I got them at a discount I only have about 150 miles in

[@AkAk-tk1tg]

It’s a very dull shoe, the foam feels dead, but it does an excellent job of absorbing impact, and that’s the best thing it has going for. For 160, it's a lot considering if you pay a little more, you can get the nike invincible 3. But, like I said, it’s very good at absorbing impact, so for heavier people, it’s actually protective like no other shoe.

[@CSVUTUS]

Mike the uneven thing on the sole is because the way you run. Look at the video you can clearly see that you step always on the tip of your foot almost nerved the back and toward one side.

[@mastertiastella]

My NB 1080v10 still monster on the road

[@micdavey]

Great review! You tend to supinate quite a bit, at least early in your ground contact, so I wouldn't expect too many people to have the same wear issues. Still, it's an area NB could have easily covered. We've been downsizing everyone so far in this shoe, and if there were enough stock for me to take a pair, I would also. NB is so inconsistent in the sizing both between versions and across models. The 880 we size up!

[@kofuzi]

Interesting!

[@breakingcustombc2925]

I wear a 10.5 in the 880v12's and I bought the 1080v12's and I started getting blisters on long runs. It makes me wonder if I should downsize to a 10. Possible my foot is moving too much and the friction is causing problems? I do wear Feeture's Max Cushion socks.

Just go as slow as you can with reasonable form, then take a walk break when your HR climbs towards the upper limit of your target zone. Rinse and repeat.

[@WiseGuyFTW]

I loved New Balance Beracon V2 and I ran ~700km in them, after that I got Fresh Foam More V3 and that started giving me achillies issues around the insertion point with the heel bone, so I ended up buying the 1080 v11 and although that was better but it would still give me the same issue but only at the end of the long runs, At the same time I had no issues in Hoka Cliftons and Asics Glide Ride. I have given up on New Balance for now, there is something wrong with the the way they design their sole especially around the heel area. (I am not a heel striker, mostly midfoot and front foot and occasionally on the heels during long runs)

[@tomrogers5052]

I really want to love this shoe. No denying NB have created a wonderful trainer, but at 100 miles i wish I hadn't gone down half a size. Toe box is absolutely fine but I'm finding the shoe to be a little too snug just below the laces. I've done what I can to loosen them without success. Sizing down and going wide may have been the right choice but I've never needed wides before. My own fault for thinking they might give a little and that feeling like a glove isn't so bad. If I thought NB were reading comments I'd implore them to really lock in their sizing between models.

[@GSUnit21]

Did they loosen up after those miles?? I’m in between sizes but prefer a snug fit???

[@danieltay1052]

I went half a size down with the wide version, and it still feel very snug below the laces, too tight to be honest. But it’s only you and me complaining about this, no one else does. Perhaps we got a thicker midfoot.

[@kanter6662]

I haven't downsized and have the same problem. Not sure whether the width increase starts too late or just my feet are too wide. It feels like my feet are falling inside within the shoes which creates a lot of pressure under the laces. Might try downsizing half a size and getting a wider version (never needed wider before).

[@kerry_runs]

They are pretty good, sizing does seem to be tricky for some people. I went a half size down and was happy that I did. The wear is noticeable on the outsole but it seems like it will go 300-400 miles without issue. Love my pair.

[@kofuzi]

I think it could easily go that distance

[@GSUnit21]

Do they loosen up after a few runs?? I’m in between sizes but prefer a snug fit! If they do loosen up I’m afraid the bigger size may end up being too big! Any thoughts??? Appreciate it so much!!!

Great video, man. Always helpful. So both these shoes are more for daily training meaning they're really not for marathon race day. I'm about to run a marathon in November and in the market for a marathon shoe. I ran with a NB Zante pursuit for my half marathon recently and they were great. Not sure if they will be fine for a full marathon. When it comes to race day shoes, is it all about personal preference?

[@john12ryan]

I followed/listened to your advice. Buy the previous model. I just got the 1080v12 for $95. I was looking at the 1080v13 but a bit pricey.

Hope you enjoy!

[@pbnotj1]

Great video. I have this shoe and have put in quite a few miles now over 2 months (don’t track but likely 100-200 miles now ? I sized down a half size and love the upper fit (while it is a bit warm now in summer ) . I am over 6ft and 190 lbs and like the v12 wider base than the v11 I have used. The weight is no big deal for a daily mile grinder IMHO. My one concern is as a slightly larger guy by running standards that you’re mentioning this shoe might be better for us and think that I am feeling some premature midsole rebound loss for a shoe of this price . I have used several other shoes from major brands and there are better midsole technologies in terms of durability on the market right now for a similar price point .

[@Swagalious689]

Curious how this compares to the novablast 3 i'd love to see that video when your able to release it.

More v3, but part of that may be because there isn’t a huge space in my rotation for cushioned daily trainers. I like either regular daily trainers or max cushion

[@p4t5y07]

Do new balance have a realese date for the rebel v3?

[@kofuzi]

I’m afraid I don’t know

[@Montreal_Audio_Systems]

I bought them but I wish I bought the vaporfly. Any taughts?

[@kofuzi]

I think it depends on what you want it for. An SUV excels at things a sports car is terrible at and vice versa. Match the tool to the task.

[@Montreal_Audio_Systems]

@@kofuzi so for speed on a track I'm guessing vaporfly! Id have to try them maybe there super light and all but not as comfortable

[@mistamop]

I just started running and I got a pair of EVOZ V3 because it has the same midsole tech as this shoe and it was discounted..how similar are they?

[@polobuncharsiew]

better than rebel v2?

[@kofuzi]

They’re very different. The Rebel 2 is more exciting. The 1080v12 is more useful.

[@leslie7922]

That wear level is crazy, my nike flyknit have done 230km and zero wear at all

[@kofuzi]

That’s great to hear

[@TravelAndMachines]

Is it true to size or should I buy half size up? How about toe width - narrow or wide?

[@kofuzi]

I used the same size here as I do with the vast majority of my shoes
