New Balance 1500v5 Running Shoe
Built and designed for competitive road runners seeking a fast ride and reliable support, the new 1500v5 men's runner brings a fresh look to this coveted series. A new aesthetic, inspired by our track spike collection, brings an aggressive visual to the breathable, lightweight upper. A new outsole offers the long-haul support needed whether you're training for a 5K or your next full marathon.
FantomFit Upper
FantomFit uppers will encase each foot in streamlined comfort. FantomFit technology uses a skeletally engineered construction to provide ultralight support and fit; it is created by fusing two thin materials with a no-sew process. This seamless fabrication means that weight, layers and bulk are reduced, as well as the risk of rubbing and blisters (because we know how those can ruin your day), meaning you get a barefoot friendly feel. Perforations in the synthetic mesh increase airflow to create a better, healthier environment for your feet to thrive in. A thin felt tongue sits smoothly against the skin to protect against lace pressure whilst enhancing the streamlined fit of the 1500v5.
REVlite Midsole
REVlite resides in the midsole to supply resilient underfoot cushioning. The innovative foam compound provides the same responsiveness and durability of New Balance foams 30% heavier, offering a feathery ride that doesn't minimise construction or sacrifice underfoot cushioning and stability. Light in weight and low in profile, it helps to spare your joints as you strike down onto hard, unforgiving surfaces. Engineered with meta-lock technology that secures the midfoot, the New Balance 1500v5 provides a locked down fit to reduce in shoe slippage for a distraction-free ride.
Blown Rubber Outsole
A blown rubber outsole completes the 1500v5, supplying sticky grip across every ground. Durable rubber adorns the heel and toe, resisting the traumas of heel-strike and toe-off to provide you with a reliable and long-lasting race buddy. Flex grooves promote natural foot flexion for easy, unhindered strides. Ready for anything from 5K training to a marathon. Their goal is to help you achieve yours.
