With a whopping increase in Fresh Foam X cushioning, the 880 v15 might have broken into luxury trainer territory.
I have extreme plantar fasciitis and achilles tendon issues. I have always been a big fan of hoka bondi for years. but these have a better and bigger toe box room and better cushion and support for my feet. These shoes are giving my feet a break and helping with pain
Like as well the first 880's I still as wearing.
They are really comfortable and helped me with my shin splint problems.
The cushioning is what is appealing about the 880. It seemed like v13 and 14 decreased cushioning, but it is back with the 15. Love it.
These shoes just killed my feet to the point that I couldn’t even wear them.
My husband says these are the most comfortable walking shoe he has ever had! Thank you.
I love how they fit with my arch supports. I have no problem walking long distance now!
Nice shoes. Always difficult to find a wide fit (2E).
He’s gone now, but thankful for Daniel the hard work he put into Fleet Feet!
