New Balance has unveiled the Infinion Foam X 1080v15, a running shoe designed to deliver reliable comfort and performance for everyday runners. At the heart of the 1080v15 is Infinion Foam, New Balance’s latest midsole technology. This foam is engineered to provide long-lasting cushioning and maintain its responsiveness over time. As a result, runners can enjoy comfort from their first kilometre to their hundredth.
Breathable Upper and Modern Design
The updated design also features an engineered upper that enhances breathability while adapting naturally to the shape of the foot. Sculpted and moulded contours improve airflow and support. This reduces hotspots and keeps feet comfortable during longer runs. Furthermore, the modern design gives the 1080v15 a fresh, contemporary look that blends style with performance. This makes it perfect for runners who want a shoe that looks as good as it feels.
Comfort Meets Performance

New Balance says the 1080v15 represents a new approach to comfort. It is not just about softness but about sustained performance, premium feel and confidence across every run. The shoe’s midsole and upper work together to deliver a smooth, balanced ride. This supports both short recovery runs and longer mileage days.
Stable and Versatile for Every Runner
The Infinion Foam X 1080v15 is built to handle the demands of daily training. It balances plush cushioning with stability and versatility, making it ideal for runners of all levels. Whether you are just starting out or are a seasoned kilometre-eater, the 1080v15 offers dependable comfort without compromise. It helps reduce fatigue and improves overall running efficiency.
Launch and Availability

The Infinion Foam X 1080v15 will officially launch on January 15, 2026. It will be available nationwide at newbalance.com and selected retailers for R2 799.94.
