Fresh Foam X 880 v14

For me its about having balanced cushioning. - too much = instability = shin splints - not enough = worse blisters - too narrow = foot pain That leaves me with brooks ghost and new balance 880 v14 Adidas, nike, puma all too narrow. Most overs not wide enough or too cushioned  Barefoot shoes are ok but I wouldn"t do long distance in them unless on grass

5'7, 127 lbs Upper: The running shoe store didn't have my size, so I went down half a size from my normal running shoes but they feel ok. the upper is nice and plush in the heel and tongue, which is a good length. The laces use weird strings as eyelets, which I don't like for durability. I had a tad bit of heel slip but nothing that bothered me. score: 8/10 Midsole: Full Zoomx midsole, I believe the training version is tpu or tpee based. The shoe is still very bouncy and cushioned. I would NOT recommend them for walking since they're so thick, but for running the vomero plus feels great. I've only got around 20 miles on the shoe. It likes to go kind of steadier paces, not quite recovery but it works great for recovery either way. I took the shoes for a faster long run and they worked well. I think going down half a size affected my experience of comfort a bit because sometimes they hurt my feet but sometimes not. 8/10 Outsole: Full waffle coverage. I ran on slightly damp concrete/asphalt with them and they felt good. On dry surfaces, they feel great, better than the Supernova Rise 2 and 880 v14. 10/10? (I haven't used them on wet ground yet) Overall: A good shoe for recovery and steady runs. $180 isn't great for the wallet, but they feel like $180 shoes. Nice and cushioned. 8.6/10

Hey all, I have run into an issue where almost all of my lower stack or more agile trainers have been pushed out of my rotation and I am essentially running all my daily mileage or non-workout miles in either the Vomero Plus or Neo Zen. Could anyone recommend some lower stack, more "ground feel" trainers that can still get the job done? I am running into recurring post tib pain and calf pain and am starting to suspect the massive shoes are part of the issue. I had good experiences with the adidas SL2 and the no-nonsense NB 880 v14. I am just looking for a comprehensive list of "stupid trainers" to serve as a counterbalance to the influx of max stack "super trainers" currently on market. I am currently considering either the Kinvara 16 or Ride 19 just because I think Saucony does normal trainers pretty well but I could use more input. I am M30/6'0"/150lb if that factors into the feedback at all.

New Balance Womens Fresh Foam X 880 V14 I recently bought these in x-wide and they’re SO comfy. Don’t know if we’re allowed to link in here but was able to get them on amazon. Not the cheapest - but I just spent 9hrs walking in them at a theme park and had no pain :)

For walking anyway I’d reccomend the NB 880v13 or v14. Amazing shoe, my dad has em and couldn’t believe the comfort. 

I had both 880s 14 and 15. I'd say the upper on the 15 feels more plush, but they're pretty much the same shoe

How do these differ from the 880v14, they’re some of my favorites, and 1080v14, which I didn’t really care for
