Critics' Consensus

“The New Balance Fresh Foam X 880v15 is a comfortable daily trainer re-engineered for running with improved lockdown and cushioning, but it lacks the responsiveness and lightness needed for performance racing. It performs adequately for long-distance jogging without aiming for speed, though it struggles with energy return and heavier impacts in the forefoot.”

“The New Balance Fresh Foam X 880v15 is a shoe capable of helping you complete a marathon, but it won't particularly shine.”
