    I use the v13 for my easy runs and some long runs. Its the shoe I wear for 3 days a week out of the 5 days I train. the most comfortable shoe ive ever had but I would never wear it for a race or even a workout.

    I was shocked with the 1080v13 in the fact I didn't hate it and it actually fit true to size. Hated the 8/9 and 10. All other new balance shoe sizes are ALL over the place. The 13 for £99, top notch.

    Recently got the more v5, great step on comfort and was to replace an outgoing yet great nimbus 25, the foam was sinking and squishy and after one 12k easy pace my knees were sore and also ankles, to soft is not always good for the joints. Hopefully the softness is controlled more in the 1080v14

    Thanks Chris for a good review as usual. Very good point about the price between 100-120 quid for the previous model. That's actually the real value of that shoe. In the EU it is still difficult to find it below 180 € which is laughable for that shoe. That's too much even for Endorphine Speed. I bought Adidas Adizero Pro 3 for that price (when it was on discount). The shoe prices these days....I'm curious if most people are buying the shoes when on discount like me or just throwing the money on whatever new appears on the market.

    I was a huge fan of 1080 prior to v13. I logged 90km a week in them of easy, long, and tempo runs. It was only for intervals that I turned to another shoe. I must have gone through dozens of pairs. Sadly I became very ill 3 years ago, so missed out on versions in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 so far. I can now start to run again, so tried the v14. What was a focused and responsive shoe has now turned into a pillowy soft competitor to the Brooks Glycerin, or other maxi shoes like Hoka's wallowy offerings. I tried the 1080 v14, bought direct from NB, and wanted a refund as soon as I started running. 10km later and NB wouldn't refund me, despite my protestations that their website description hadn't changed, and the fact they're calling it the 1080 and not a new name. I had to E-Bay them in the end, and got £67. I was very disappointed, not just to waste £160, but to lose what was the best running shoe on the market. I'm now comparing the Hoka Mach 6 and the latest 880, both of which come in the wide fitting I need and are responsive. I must say though, neither are as good as the 1080 v10, v11 etc. RIP.

    You mentioned about the upper and how they've tried to increase breathability I think it's about time shoe companies in certain lines say their big sellers offer a summer and winter version of the shoe so the summer ones are nice and breathable????
    Anyway if I was a marketing person I'd give it a crack .

    The shoe industry needs to move away from this "old shoe" look. I wanted to buy a pair of NB Rebel V4s a couple of weeks ago, but they only one they had in stock was the one with the off-white midsole. When I was a kid, that was the colour I would associate with something that has been laying outside in the sun for way too long and was pretty much ready for the bin. That would always be in the back of my mind. Give me a nice bright, colourful and fresh looking shoe any day!

    Why have the 1080 become obscenely priced?
    I wanted to buy the v13 but I just don’t see it as a £160+ shoe. Even 1 year after its release it’s still £160+ and has completely evaded any sales. I just don’t get it.
    The new More v5 is £140 and has way more foam. So why is the 1080 ripping us off? Frustrating. 😢
    They do look good. Not £165 good, but good.
