  • The new Fresh Foam Hierro V6 from New Balance is a thoughtfully designed trail running shoe. Not only does it hold its own on the trails it keeps aesthetics that look just as good with a set of jeans.

    What do you think to the new Hierro v6... better with jeans on on the trails?

    Great review. I am late to these Hierro V6's having only bought mine in 2022 when they were out in 2021, but I now have 2 pairs.Love them that much. The V7's are almost out and the outsole pattern has changed to a more aggressive lug pattern which will be better on trails

    Great review, thanks! Have New Balance stopped producing the Summit Unknown? Are the Hierro V6 designed for similar terrain as the Summit Unknown, or is there a more comparable shoe in their range?

    • @wiggle
      @wiggle  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sadly we think so for now. Designed for similar terrain although a more similar shoe is the new Fresh Foam More Trail v1. Have a look and see what you think

    Wiggle, nice review. I have just received a pair of these and have to ask if anyone thinks the rear outsole extension can be trimmed. I wouldn't cut it right up to the Fresh Foam maybe hold it off 3mm or so. I work in a hospital wearing scrubs but I'm constantly on my feet and moving about. These are very comfortable with great support but I really don't like the look of the extension and don't need the heel protection.

    • @wiggle
      @wiggle  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Jim, I 100% would say you could trim it off with a sharp stanley blade. It's only really there for running on rough trails so a hospital floor will be more than fine without them.

      @@wiggle Managed to trim the stabilizer today. I drew a cut line on the shoe then cut it with a new bladed utility knife which left some cut marks. I smoothed the cut edge with a sanding cylinder on a Dremel rotary tool and it looks OEM.

      50 mile race! fair play! Yeah these are great for trail running, but you might want to go for an even more elite specilist trail shoe if your running super long distnace trail. There brilliant for countryside walks and hiking like many trail shoes are! Hope that helps

    With a 0-6mm drop it would probably be a great option for my running in a wide sizing - but 8mm is too much on the trail IMO.

      @@wiggle Just got my v5s of these. Super high quality. The foam is way way denser than videos and images lead on. Offers a lot of support for more of my pretty flat arch too, just because it has a nice shape. Its pretty wide with a good toe box. Some of the most comfortable shoes I've worn in years coming from traditional hiking shoes, Also a big fan of the Teva Grandview gtx hiking boot, as i bought those as well. Check them out if you need some boots! Thanks for the video and input!

      I meant ‘toe protect’... nah, I’m based in South Africa. Just thought if anyone was considering this shoe they should know. It’s damned comfy and one of the best fitting shoes I’ve ever worn. Rep here said I should just get a new shoe but gone back to Altra’s instead which is a shame. Was enjoying the cushioning in the Hierro but until they improve the quality of the material in the next version I wouldn’t consider it...
