Overall

More colors please New Balance! I spend a lot of miles in these shoes and they perform very well. I had a black strip of the rubber sole come off but I still use them. Been wearing the 1080’s since version 8 I think and haven’t found a reason to change. Over the years I have progressed to larger sizes to minimize black toenails as my distances increase.
