Pronation Control:
The 860v15 uses a medial post - a section of firmer foam on the arch side of the shoe - to gently guide your foot through a more neutral motion. This prevents excessive inward rolling (overpronation) without feeling rigid or uncomfortable. The dual-density midsole provides the right amount of support while maintaining the plush Fresh Foam X comfort throughout the rest of the shoe.
The Fresh Foam X 860v15 is the go-to stability trainer for runners who refuse to compromise on comfort. Whether you're logging easy miles or tackling marathon training, this shoe provides the structured support you need with the cushioned ride you want.
