Overview
Long shifts, daily walks and road runs suit the New Balance stability shoe, which pairs maximum Fresh Foam X cushioning with support for feet that roll inward. An engineered knit upper adds comfort.
Support plus deep cushioning helps overpronators stay comfortable through long days. Neutral runners will find it firmer and heavier than they need.
Who it's for
Nurses, retail workers and runners with flat arches suit the supportive cushioned platform. Runners with a neutral stride should look at a neutral model.

Performance notes
Stability comes from the supportive platform resisting inward roll, while Fresh Foam X absorbs impact. The knit upper flexes with the foot to reduce pressure points.
