New Balance continues to build upon its 1080v11 selection of running shoes and the latest is the Fresh Foam X 1080v12 in a Vibrant Apricot colorway. It fuses hues of Vibrant Orange, Spring Tide, and the aforementioned Vibrant Apricot together for the season. It is made with plush cushioning, with well-balanced flexibility and weight distribution for maximum functionality.
It has the brand's special Fresh Foam X technology at the underfoot and pairs perfectly with the lightweight engineered upper that is knitted for breathability. Overall, the sneaker has a strategic approach to how support is applied throughout with a comfortable hold around the forefoot for security, whereas the knit upper allows for breathability and a stretchy fit.
