We present one of the star trail running shoes from NB, the New Balance Fresh Foam Hierro v6 Possibly one of the best trail running shoes of 2020 as were the Hierro v5, are renewed. And how could it be otherwise, with few changes. But just enough to try to improve the model. For starters, they are somewhat lighter, and that is always appreciated.
One thing that hasn't changed is the type of runner these shoes are aimed at: trail runners looking for maximum comfort and soft cushioning whilst running. For medium and long runs at easy paces in the mountains.
It is a trail shoe that has better fit in this version. The upper is tighter, but also comfortable for the foot thanks to a large and well padded tongue.
Undoubtedly on loose stone tracks, trails; not particularly technical areas where you want to run and enjoy nature knowing that you're protected and have excellent running sensations.
The Fresh Foam X midsole is still undoubtedly one of the best materials on the market. A combination of cushioning, softness, comfort and reactivity that we love at RUNNEA.
The outsole contains Vibram MegaGrip material, and is one of the best soles you can currently find on the market.
Their design is still spectacular, a breath of fresh air in the trail world. Although it is true that this V6 version risks less in the design than version 5. They feature a more traditional style lacing and a tongue separated from the rest of the upper, not like that of version 5 that came integrated into the upper itself. But they are still beautiful. They'll go perfectly with jeans, and that's something to be thankful for.
They are very comfortable and at the same time you feel that your feet are perfectly protected and prepared to face almost any road.
And thirdly, a special thanks to New Balance. The upper of these new Hierro v6 are made from recycled materials, which is a step in the right direction for awareness of the need for a cleaner planet within the footwear industry.
The starting price of these New Balance Fresh Foam v6 will be €140.
