The New Balance Fresh Foam Vongo v5 blends the best of Fresh Foam cushioning with creatively designed medial stability elements to deliver a supported ride mile after mile. A thick bed of New Balance's Fresh Foam provides the shock absorption and cushion you need to feel comfortable on any run. Designers updated the Vongo v5 with a segmented outsole to provide dialed-in stability exactly where you need it. The Vongo v5 uses a unique Hypoknit mesh upper for a smooth, socklike feel that is equally huggy and airy. This keeps the shoe feeling ventilated without compromising on support throughout the midfoot. A rounded toe box accommodates natural toe-splay as you run, adding to the stabilized feel of the shoe.
