- The Outsole on the New Balance 860V13 will offer light traction and grip, with a less lug design.
- In turn, the tread will be more viable to use on treadmills and similar gym equipment.
Use
- Ideally, I would suggest the 860V13 model for use in the gym, treadmill, and smooth, hard surfaces.
- However, they will also be great to use on tar and concrete road.
- However, it would be best not to try them on uneven and slippery trails.
Durability
- As far as durability goes, the fresh foam used in the New Balance 860V13 model will be soft and plusher and durable enough for heavy wear and tear.
- You could use them consistently and daily on the right surfaces, but I would not recommend them for outdoor trails.
- The uppers will be durable and well constructed, bit does not offer protection or durability against elements such as rain and wetness.

Components of the New Balance 860V13
Outsole
- Not much is expected for the outsole besides the smoother tread and usual patterns.
- The outsole will still trust a durable rubber.
Midsole
- You can expect the same quality and quantity of cushioning with the trusted Fresh Foam technology for the midsole.
- The midsole and insole will be more plush and soft under your feet.
- However, I foresee a more uniform design for better stability and pronation control; There will be medial posts for pronation control and added cushioning.
Upper
- I love the upper because they will keep the 3D molded heel that offers a snug and secure fit.
- Thupperssr will remain the same engineered mesh that is flexible and highly breathable.
- However, you can see more colors and different designs in the new fresh look of the New Balance 860V13.
