New Balance is betting on a winner with its new release of the New Balance Fresh Foam Beacon. One of the Running shoes of the American brand that are postulated to be on everyone's lips, and that come to set a trend for its important and revolutionary innovation.

Being included in the successful and renowned Fresh Foam series of New Balance, these new Beacon are positioned as an option for maximum cushioning and comfort in each step for runners with neutral footprint, and medium or light weights. Surprisingly, despite its reduced weight of 213 grams, this model provides a very generous cushioning capacity with a high profile.

New Balance Fresh Foam Beacon, its most innovative features

In summary, the New Balance Fresh Foam Beacon is a very lightweight shoe with excellent stability and flexibility, and exceptional cushioning. All these elements result in a smoother ride, without restricting its responsiveness.

With all this, the first detail to note about these Fresh Foam Beacon is that the model does not have a standard outsole as such, and is that the designers of the firm of Boston are committed to implement a new and revolutionary concept such as the midsole of the shoe itself is exposed directly to the ground contact.

Then, in the construction of the shoe comes into play the unique Fresh Foam cushioning material, which occupies both the body and the heart of the shoe in a single density to provide that remarkable feeling of going well acholado. While the outer material that covers the entire shoe is an evolution of EVA foam, the injected EVA, and whose main mission is to make it more resistant to abrasion, and therefore does not suffer excessive wear.

In this area of the sole there are a series of reinforcements, in the form of patches, and in strategic distribution as the points of friction or more exposed to wear.

One-piece upper

Another of the most relevant novelties of these New Balance Fresh Foam Beacon is its upper that has been made in one piece with overlays reduced to the minimum expression. Through the upper's braided yarn, this running shoe improves both comfort and flexibility of feel. Running sensations are more friendly and comfortable.

Regarding the technical specifications, these New Balance Fresh Foam Beacon have a 6 mm drop (20 mm forefoot and 26 mm heel). Their weights are 213 grams for the men's model and 177 grams for the women's version.

In short, with the New Balance Fresh Foam Beacon on your feet you will enjoy a training shoe, 100% rolling, and that will contribute to improve your running sensations, and make them more pleasant. The FF Beacon comes to replace the saga of the New Balance Fresh Foam Boracay, and also come to fill the gap that the Boston brand is missing with a top of the range running shoe in cushioning, placing it below the best-selling NB 1080 v8, but especially for runners of not so high weights.
