Been wearing in the 13 years

Overall

I’ve been wearing the NB 880 for 13 years. I haven’t had any issues with it or injuries that I think were caused by the shoe so I’ve stuck with it.

switched over from the pegs into 880's and I've loved them ever since. Great daily trainer to put a lot of miles in.

Do it all shoe

Run6556 · Jul 31, 2021

5/5

Overall

This is my favorite daily trainer. Medium firmness, yet quite cushioned and also responsive. Comfortable in all paces, also the long run. If I had to pick a distance, it is best suited suited for 6-10 miles. Feels light. There's developed a little hole where my left pinky toe is but is doesn't interrupt. I have a wide food so I guess its why. After 500 miles they still feel fine but a bit less responsive when I have heavy legs. Will probably last me another 300 miles.
