Features

[Looking for the latest version? The women's New Balance Fresh Foam 860v12 is now available.]

Fresh Foam, meet the 860.

The women's New Balance Fresh Foam 860v11 brings the brandā€™s premier everyday foam to the legendary 860 for the first time.

Thanks to the Fresh Foam midsole, the 860v11 delivers a soft landing and energetic response—perfect for racking up big mileage. But the switch to Fresh Foam didnā€™t change the defining feature of the 860: its stability.

New Balance used a firmer piece of foam under the arch to develop a stable feeling. The medial post helps reduce the effects of overpronation and keep you running smoothly.

An engineered mesh upper adds comfort and durability, while a flared heel collar and slightly more aggressive look enhance the shoeā€™s speedy feel.

The updated women's New Balance Fresh Foam 860v11 is a confident, stylish stability running shoe that provides all the standout features you need for your training.

Wrinkles

Gayle M 2 years ago Verified Purchase

The shoes are easy to put on & take off. A lot of cushion but not enough lateral stability: I feel like my left ankle is rolling over. The toe box is too wide and the fabric at the toe has creased an inch along the length of the shoe in two places so after only a few weeks the shoes look like they are old and breaking down.

The shoes are really helpful with giving foot support and helping with pain

New Balance Let Me Down

KAAREN A 2 years ago Verified Purchase

I LOVE New Balance shoes. I have worn several generations of the 860. This time I had to leap from the 9 (which was WONDERFUL) to either an 11th or 12th generation. The availability and colors to choose from in Gen 11 was better for me. So after trying on a pair in the Fleet Feet store I ordered three (3) pair thru the Fleet Feet website. Walking around in the store for 5 minutes does NOT tell you how the shoe will perform out on a 3 mile hike. What a horrible surprise to find that the toe box of 860 Gen 11 is SO much narrower than any of the previous 860's I have purchased before. Not only are they too tight they are wearing a blister on the SIDE of my big toe. It is not the fault of Fleet Feet because they encouraged me to buy the next size up which I did. New Balance may have just lost a VERY loyal customer.

Foot Comfort

I purchased a pair of these shoes for my wife for Christmas 2020 and she absolutely loved them so much until I had to buy her another pair this Christmas. Luckily there are many colors to choose from so I can give her the same comfort with a different look. I also purchased the orthotic inserts which just adds to the comfort. As long as you sell this shoe Iā€™ll keep buying them for her.

My first time at a Fleet Feet store. What a great experience!

I have new feet! Staff is very friendlycourteous and knowledgeable about the product and they go the extra mile to make sure I am satisfied before I leave the store. Shoes are extremely comfortable. I will definitely be a customer for life!

There isn't as much of an arch support as the previous pair I purchased. Also the high rubber back of the shoe is easily broken down after several times of removing and putting the shoes on.

Love my New Balance sneakers again!

I always buy New Balance sneakers with extra support to avoid pronation. Fleet Feet put me into the correct size and innersoles for arch support. I now have four pairs of these sneakers but the bright coral are my favorite and so many people have commented on how cool they are.

Definitely a good buy - New Balance Fresh Foam 860v11

Stephanie K 2 years ago Verified Purchase

After getting a customized scan this pair of sneakers were recommended as a good option for my needs. Definitely have to agree. I went a full size up from what I've normally worn and it's been ideal. I am a big walker - at least 7-8 miles a day - so I needed durable cushiony sneakers as others were falling apart easily and my toenails were bruised and awful. Minor issues with these which is the only reason I didn't give 5 stars. Still get a few blisters but nothing close to what I was experiencing. I think maybe I need new socks - lol. These sneakers are great very comfortable and really strong for my daily walks.

Love these shoes

Have 2 pairs of New Balance Fresh Foam 860s. Work great for daily walks and hikes. I average about 6 miles a day mostly on hilly terrain. These hold up great. Only one small complaint: the deep tread catches bits of gravel that can be hard to pry out.
