How it ranks
The New Balance Fresh Foam X 860 v13 trails most daily trainers in our data. Durability and looks are its strongest sub-ratings. The rating rests on 5 runner reviews and 11 other rated shoes in the 860 product line. Another 7 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
81/100

“Very comfortable.”
“It took me at least 150 miles to break in the upper so it wasn't painfully hard.”

4/5
Overall
A solid everyday work horse. When they made this a fresh foam shoe a few years back it got a lot softer but still on the firmer side of shoes. It's been the same since then except they changed the upper. It took me at least 150 miles to break in the upper so it wasn't painfully hard. That has never happened to me before. It would dig into the top of my foot and around my ankle. Then one day it felt totally fine. Weird.
