New Balance Fresh Foam X More v5 | The More Gets Even More Cushioning! 

Connor's a SHOE SALESMAN. Let's get the Facts OUT. NB REPS well they're a different breed and have been trained in house with all the Science and Technology that supports the products they promote.

@@jt.8144 Connor is a runner that sells shoes. There’s a difference.

I got one for $90 usd. 90 vs $155. How much better could it be? I only get the latest models if they are really worth it. I will say the upper looks much higher quality in the new version, that was an issue with the v4, the upper felt very cheap for a $150 msrp shoe.

@@jeffhicks8428 For me, I realized my gears have to look and feel good for me to feel good while running. It's tough to get out there sometimes so whatever helps!

I understand people actually run in these, though I don't really understand why. I'm just a shorter guy looking for my comfortable gentleman's high heels to walk around in. But they keep firming up the foam for the people that actually run in them. As long as it's taller than the v4, i'm gunna buy it though. I paid full MSRP for Adidas Prime X on release because it was one of the tallest shoes on the market, and they hurt my ankle just to walk in, but I do it anyways, cuz in this world a couple of inches makes a world of difference.

​@@justintung7981 In terms of max cushion running shoes, this is one of the lower stack height options (mid-30s mm), don't be misled by the sidewalls. As you mentioned, the Adidas Prime X is one of the many higher shoes with between 40 and 50mm stack heights.

same most of the new balance I wear are super trainers/racers, but I still wear them all casually!

@@justintung7981 Who keeps firming up the foam? The trend in the running shoe industry is foams are getting softer and softer. The 1080v13 was the most compliant midsole in any running shoe that's been made thus far. It's total mush. The More V4 was a not quite that soft, but also had a lot of resilience and bounce to it.

It's the high sidewalls, the actual stack height in this is middling for a max cushion shoe. It's mid-30s, nowhere close to 40-50mm that you see in a lot of other max cushion shoes.

I disagree. I have the v4 and it's a shoe that you always notice that you're wearing at all time. Not just because of the bulk but because of how bouncy and trampoline like it is. I never don't notice that I'm wearing. I have a Via Olympus 2 as well and that's a shoe you forget that you're wearing. Much less bulky than most maximal shoes and the midsole is just dialed in. It's just right, not too soft and mushy but not firm. Not dead but also not a trampoline. Literally don't even notice it.

1080 isn't max enough and easy recovery enough for some ppls mate. simple

@@maracas23 that’s where other brands “max stack, easy day recovery shoes” are superior. Side walls on the more will blister anyone, it has no bounce you just sink in it, my point is its not a good shoe.

@@dextersuarez9948 what is a good 'max stack easy day recovery shoe' in your opinion then?! i think the more is great, no blisters and loads of cush. and i run in alot of different shoes. So you're wrong.

@@dextersuarez9948 now it is.....

They mentioned it was the same midsole compund, so I’d assume the more v5 just has more stack height for more cushioning

every model and every version is always using different formula of the foam. Literally. None of them are exactly the same. They might all be called fresh foam x, but they're all different. Some of them vastly so. The foam in the 1080 v13 is nothing like the v12, and nothing at all like the More v4.

Don't go by the sidewalls to estimate the stack height. It's not big, it's only mid-30s mm. Plenty other shoes have between 40-50mm.

@@aliasgharkhoyee9501 .Hi. I know it. Have a good Sunday.

Get this when you wear out the v4

Stack height on this one is in the 30s mm, so it's not ridiculous at all. It's very much middle of the pack. The side walls are misleading.

They can go higher!

Could not be more untrue. Of course it doesn’t work for some, but a majority of reviewers enjoyed the shoe.

@@kalvin. The midsole bottoms out quickly, 100/150km. And the stack height is 32,5mm at the heel( in case you didn't know) even the 1080 v13 has better foam, more Bounce and 38mm at the heel. A real flop indeed the more v4. Good for walking the dog.

@@LuisRamos-qw1gj sorry it didn’t work out for you! Sadly that’s not reflective of the majority of people’s experiences, but as they say, YMMV

@@kalvin. Well you are free to test it for yourself. I don't know what is the majority of people. Reviewers are not a good example...

@@LuisRamos-qw1gjI have really enjoyed the More V4.

Add an insole to raise your foot up-plenty of volume to do that. I have buniions and do it in all my running shoes.

sidewalls are the best thing about this shoe. makes it crazy stable along with the flared misole. Sounds like you got the wrong size. Could be too small or large, narrow or wide, I have no way to know, but either one can cause blisters.

It’s a great shoe, hope you enjoy it!

How deep we talking?

@@HenryPurcell-zc3ih 59.99, from Sierra,

I just picked up a pair a few weeks ago for $86

To the heavens

It's not even that high. Did you not listen? Ofc not. It looks high because it cups around the footbed. The stack on the More V4 is like 33 mm. A nimbus is more like 40. Tons of shoes have taller stack. It's actually a very clever design the way the midsole wraps around on this shoe, between that and the way it gets even wider at the bottom, it's extremely stable.

have run in the v4 300 miles-sole is fine.

You def don’t know what your talking about 🤣🤡🤡

Bruh, the 1080 v12 was 28 mm stack in the heel. That's basically a racing flat these days. It's insane.

$60 where?

@@damiang27 the marathon shop here in Malaysia. For about a week the sale going. Now back to normal price

Near the same in Germany Last year (online seller: About You). 65 Euro/ 72 Dollars Great shoes. 400k in and still fresh.

How is the stability on the V4?

@@pressrepeat2000very good!

@@pressrepeat2000 That might depend on who you are.. As the rep admitted, the very soft cushioning can be "squirrely" for some of us. The firmer v3 had excellent stability for me, but the softer gap heel on the v4 caused me problems (mainly achilles). Under me, v4 was very unfortunate soft-squish overkill. Admittedly, that's great for some people, but the rep is making the appropriate noises for my ears. No reason v4 lovers can't stock up now, while they are cheap.

It is reuploaded i think

Likely available for pre order in July on that website but still won't get it until it releases in August. That's usually the case.

From what some reviewers have said it’s actually quite a good shoe. There really isn’t a need to complain when there are sooo many options for every type of runner out there. Nobody’s forcing this down your throat. Just look at the difference between this and the pacer v2.

@@dogdogdoghorse I have the V4 and it is a really good shoe. Only two complaints. The upper is not on the level of other $150 shoes. feels cheap, but it works and the fit is excellent. Two, it's maybe the most bulky, clunky and boat like shoe I have ever seen. Aside from this the v4 was an excellent, very cushioned, very resilient and very stable shoe. It's a little bit more bouncy than I like, but that's fine. Looks like they fixed the upper on this new version, but I doubt this one is any less bulky. If I had to guess it got an even higher stack because every new model needs a higher stack in running world for some reason. They ruined the new 1080 though. The v12 was a near perfect shoe and the v13 is a mushy unstable mess

I hope the build quality is better than the 1080 v13. Foam is too mushy too in 1080 v13. I'll wait for independent reviews rather than hype.

Yowana is that you

well i like em. called recovery shoes for a reason.
