Fresh Foam X 880v12

Daily TrainerReleased 2022-04-26JP

Fresh Foam X 880v12 is the 12th-generation neutral daily trainer for runners ranging from beginners to marathoners. Its reworked dual-layer midsole pairs a softer Fresh Foam X heel with denser forefoot foam, balancing impact absorption, stability and a more energetic toe-off. Stretchy double-jacquard mesh adds targeted support and ventilation, while D, 2E and 4E widths extend the fit for road and track training.

Weight measurement and plate details
Weight note
The existing 298 g value corresponds to the 10.5 oz men's listing on Fleet Feet's exact product page. The old New Balance Ireland product URL now renders blank in a normal browser and should be removed as a public supporting source.
Plate note
Exact official construction and technology specifications cover the dual-layer Fresh Foam X midsole, double-jacquard mesh upper, and exact authorized product construction, with no carbon structure identified. Classify carbon_plate=false under the complete-spec policy; this does not assert that no non-carbon plate exists.
