New Balance 880v15 First Run Review

  • Summary

  • The New Balance 880v15 is an everyday runnning shoe designed for versatility and durability. Priced at $140, it competes with shoes like the Hoka Skyflow ($150) and Brooks Ghost Max ($150). In this video, I give an overview of the 880, take it for some miles and let you know my thoughts.
