Sometimes you just need the greater support of a stability shoe and New Balance’s 1260v7 delivers that benefit without looking like your grandmother’s shoe. This shoe has New Balance’s new Abzorb cushioning throughout with a lateral piece of Fuelcell cushioning from the heel to the midfoot to better absorb shock from each heel strike. An asymmetrical heel counter promises better heel stability while the mesh upper has underlays that wrap around the midfoot to provide better arch support. New Balance wants you to keep jogging even if you require a little more stability from your shoe and the 1260v7 promises to do just that. Fortunately, it looks so good that only you and New Balance will know that’s it’s a stability shoe.
