I was sent a half size up from my normal US8.5 and while the fit is fine I would stay true to size in a next pair. However, just because the midfoot and the heel are secure doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice room in the toe box. I was able to toe splay freely with no problems. This was especially helpful on long runs when my feet started to swell. You can watch my full New Balance Fresh Foam More v3 review below and read on to learn more about this shoe’s performance, what I like best about it, and who I recommend this shoe for. New Balance Fresh Foam More v3 Review: Run Test ReviewMy only gripe is some tongue rotation for my narrower right foot. Given how soft and pliable the upper is, I think the More might benefit from either a gusset or moving the lace holder loop up for narrower feet. Shop Men’s Fresh Foam More v3 Shop Women’s Fresh Foam More v3 How Does the New Balance Fresh Foam More v3 Perform on the Run? Saucony Omni 20 Review- Our first guest reviewer, Ryan Flugaur, dives into the latest model of the long running stability trainer Jeff: The Fresh Foam More has been New Balance’s attempt to make a Hoka trainer - and not one of the pared down Hokas like the Clifton or Rincon, welcome to Bondi Country. Unapologetically cushioned, the FFMv3 gets closer to that dream than either of its two predecessors, by taking it’s already well-cushioned sibling the 1080 and adding even more to the midsole. The result is one of the softest shoes on the market, with a pillowy midsole made to pamper the legs and feet during the run. If you’ve been looking for the softest shoe around, this shoe needs to be up for consideration..

The FFX More Trail v3 has an 11.6% increase in stiffness and a 32.8% boost in firmness after spending 20 minutes chillin' in our freezer. The medial side stability (above) is achieved by the broad platform but also through the use of large convex shapes on the medial midsole sidewalls with the lateral (below) having large laser engraved concave ones for some give. Classic Fresh Foam geometry amplified here I found the combination highly effective. The More Trail v3 comes with two pull tabs: one on the tongue, which is very useful for adjusting the fit, and another on the heel, which does absolutely nothing because it's positioned too low. Hey, just cut & paste it for the v4!

Adidas Adios 6 review - A complete retake on the workout trainer, featuring lightstrike pro in the forefoot Another main change in this shoe is in the base and outsole. The base is a bit wider than it was in the v2. So, if you have wider feet, this new version will fit you better. The outsole also has less rubber, which helps with the flexibility of the shoe and overall ride.

Starting off with the topsole, it is a firmer, more responsive material. This is really evident when you want to push the pace and get the blood pumping. Jeff: Released last year, the React Infinity has a litany of issues for me - major arch pressure and heel slip are the majors - and while I’d prefer a more versatile shoe in the FFM, it takes the cake for me over the problematic Nike. MEAGHAN: I have to agree with Thomas. Maybe, just maybe, if this shoe was a tad lighter it could be even better. My W7.5 came in at 8.75 oz, not a fattened cow by any means, but I’ve been spoiled with daily trainers under 8oz. Another thing NB got right with the More v3 is the platform width. This is a wide shoe, at 119.2mm in the forefoot and 102.1mm in the heel (average shoes are 112.6mm/89.2mm) it’s super stable which is needed since the Fresh Foam historically in my opinion has been a touch too soft. If you’re in the market for a maximal trainer that can still push the pace, then maybe give these a look.

However, there is no going over the board in the More Trail v3. Our precise measurements of the toebox revealed that this New Balance is only a few millimeters wider than the average trail running shoe.

The midsole uses New Balance’s signature Fresh Foam, which is quite soft and responsive. They have coupled it with flex grooves that help with compression of the foam and ease the transition from heel to toe. This adds a little bounce and helps you move forward. Jeff: There might not be a clearer Big Brother/Little Brother lineup in the running shoe world than these two. Similar construction materials, even looks, they can be a solid 1-2 punch of every day trainer (1080) and easy day recovery shoe (FFM). Not for me, the shape of the heel of the 1080v11 changed just enough from the v10 to make it painful to run in, but the v10 is a solid daily trainer. We just love pull tabs. They look amazing in most shoes and, above everything, they make it easy for us to slip into the shoe. Personal: B (The shoe rides smoothly and does its job well. I'm not a huge max cushion shoe fan though)

In our perspective, although it slightly enhances the shoe's performance in technical terrain, the trade-off is being positioned too high off the ground in any other scenario.
