Fresh Foam X 1080v13

Daily TrainerReleased 2023-10-13JP

Fresh Foam X 1080v13 is a versatile cushioned trainer for daily runs, recovery jogging, longer mileage and all-day wear. Compared with v12, it uses a softer and lighter Fresh Foam X compound with added energy return. A data-designed outsole and canoe-like rocker guide weight transfer from landing through toe-off, while the reworked mesh upper adds room over the instep for a less restrictive fit during extended use.

Weight measurement and plate details
Weight note
A manufacturer-provided New Balance Germany press distribution lists 262 g for men and 206 g for women. Road Runner Sports' exact men's product page corroborates 9.2 oz, while Fleet Feet lists 9.6 oz; with sample sizes unstated, 262 g is proposed as the representative value with the source conflict documented.
Plate note
Exact official construction and technology specifications cover the Fresh Foam X midsole, solid-rubber/data-designed outsole, rocker profile, and engineered-mesh upper, with no carbon structure identified. Classify carbon_plate=false under the complete-spec policy; this does not assert that no non-carbon plate exists.
