13 was too soft for me personally but still got some use for shorter recovery runs

[DTOWNRW]

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.

Best running tennis shoes ever. I had 2 pairs of v13 and now I bought 3 pairs of the v14

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 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.

[Charles-kcvt]

Will be picking this one up. Always wished the v13 was a touch firmer.

[Stashawk]

Looks like the Balos under another name.

[slavasss]

2:09 so its not good for forefoot strikers if they increased stiffness there, right? cause i land there as well, not only toe-off

[Chateauduwab]

I just bought the version 13 for 90 euros ! can't wait to use them only for long easy run

[snippi]

I was looking for a cushioned daily trainer with a bit versatility. Tested it in store against a Glycerin Max. I bought the V14, really like it.

[tkwasik]

Good review as usual shot as it is 👍
For me NB with its overly soft and mushy foams could not exist in running space and I'd not even notice - not my cup of tea

[JDeezle]

I like ur rotation idea with the SC Trainer v3 over the SC Elite for most 😊 people (especially in the US because it's cheaper).

[nikargiropoulos]

Thanks Chris - think I'll buy a new pair of the v13 when they go on sale! Have you tried the More v5 yet?

[andysmith]

Hey, Chris! I watch a lot of your videos but still don’t remember your true to size is, and you say it’s a size 10, but don’t say if that’s smaller or larger than your normal size. That would help for future reviews! Thanks mate

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.

Well done, Fordy. Like. Have a great day.

[geoffreymccann]

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 .

[Jon-hbgx]

How does something like the 1080 compare to a max cushion shoe like the More v5 or the Brooks Glycerin Max? I'm a heavier runner and need something ourely for recovery runs and slower, long runs.

[DeanPattrick]

I love the v12 and still have two pairs ready to wear. The v13 i found to soft, not sure if NB are trying to be like Hoka. Ive tried on the v14 and that too seems too soft for me 😭😭😭

[paulmulks]

Doesn't seem that long ago the v13 had come out 🤔 Probably not one for me though, I've never really got on with NB trainers 😏
