Reviews

Good cushioning, not very durable

"Needed a shoe for runs on hard surfaces. The cushioning is great, legs feel good after those runs, so the shoe is doing its job. They feel quite light and fast too. But showing more wear on the outsole, than I expected this soon. The previous model was more durable."

The 1080 is a workhorse

"The 1080 is a workhorse wonder that has the cush for comfort and a fit that makes it kinda quick at times (depending on motivation). Long days, easy days, wet days, dry days… The 1080 can handle most things you’ll throw at it thanks to the FreshFoam formulation, the outsole traction and the versatile fit."

— Leslie C. (5/5)

Love the 1080s

"This is my second pair of the 1080s as my feet seem to love them. Good neutral shoe for those nice and slow recovery days. 300kms into my previous pair and they're holding up well, and have bought another to start rotating in."
