How it ranks
The New Balance Fresh Foam 880 v10 ranks below most daily trainers in our data. Value and durability are its strongest sub-ratings. The rating rests on 6 runner reviews and 13 other rated shoes in the 880 product line. Another 6 reviews would set the confidence on this shoe's own reviews.
Confidence
How settled the rating is against every other rated shoe. A shoe can rate high on confidence with relatively few reviews of its own when its product line has a long record and external ratings from retailer sites agree. Confidence will score low when we have few ratings or when runners disagree.
Confidence
75/100
“Medium firmness, yet quite cushioned and also responsive.”
“After 500 miles, a bit less responsive when legs feel heavy.”
“Comfortable in all paces, also the long run.”
“Developed a little hole where my pinky toe is, but doesn't interrupt.”
“Best suited for 6-10 miles.”

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.
