The 860 is New Balance’s signature stability shoe, but that doesn’t mean it can't get better.
New Balance refined the shoe to meet the technical demands of discerning runners and gave it modern styling that stands out for all the right reasons. Designers used an engineered mesh upper with strategic breathability zones to let your tootsies breathe, and new textiles around the midfoot make for a comfortable, secure ride.
The 860 v9 got a host of upgrades, but it still provides all the stability you need: A blown rubber outsole paired with a TRUFUSE midsole gives you a premium feel underfoot while a medial post delivers reliable, all-day support.
