Running culture is changing, and so are the expectations around what a great everyday running shoe should deliver. With more runners embracing consistency over speed records, comfort and reliability have taken center stage. New Balance taps directly into this shift with the launch of the all-new 1080v15, a shoe built to support runners mile after mile, without asking them to fit into a single definition of what running looks like.
Launched across the Middle East in January 2026, the 1080v15 reflects New Balance’s long-standing belief that running is personal. Whether someone is finding their pace, returning after a break, or clocking steady mileage, the message is clear. Run your way, on your terms, with a shoe that adapts to how you move.
At the heart of the 1080v15 is the newly developed Infinion Midsole Foam. Engineered for long-lasting performance, it delivers enhanced cushioning paired with improved energy return. The result is a ride that feels consistent from the first run to the hundredth, making the shoe a dependable choice for daily training and longer sessions alike. Runners can expect a balance that supports comfort without dulling responsiveness, even across extended distances.
The updated silhouette brings both function and style into focus. A refreshed upper uses lightweight, breathable materials designed to promote airflow, an essential detail for warmer climates. Sculpted molded contours add structure while giving the shoe a modern, expressive look that reflects New Balance’s growing presence at the intersection of sport and culture. Reflective accents also improve visibility during early morning and evening runs, adding a layer of practicality to everyday training.
Comfort-driven details complete the experience. A cushioned tongue, soft heel tab, and adaptive stretch laces work together to create a secure, personalized fit. These thoughtful touches reinforce why the 1080 franchise has become New Balance’s benchmark for comfort-focused running footwear.
From a technical standpoint, the 1080v15 continues to deliver on trusted performance metrics. The shoe features a 6mm drop, a stack height of 39.9mm at the heel and 33.9mm at the forefoot, and is built on the PLR-6 last. Weighing 9.2oz for men and 7.3oz for women, it meets the varied needs of runners across experience levels.
Available now across New Balance stores and online, the 1080v15 invites runners to show up consistently, move comfortably, and keep running in a way that feels true to them. Discover the shoe built to support every kind of run!
