New Balance 1012 review
This New Balance 1012 review takes a look at the New Balance 1012, which is a durable motion control running shoe from New Balance and is built for the severe overpronator. Stabilicore and stability web in the midsole work together to provide you with excellent stability and motion control.
The New Balance 1012 is the new version of the New Balance 1011.
New Balance 1012 comes in models for both men and women. This article reviews the women’s New Balance motion control running shoe.
The New Balance 1012 is a sneaker that weighs approximately 11.4 oz (323 grams), which is slightly lighter than its predecessor, the New Balance WR1011 and has the same weight as the Mizuno Wave Renegade 4 as you can see from the table listed on comparing motion control running shoes by weight.
The New Balance 1012 has a breathable mesh upper to keep your feet dry, a LockDown Liner integrated into the lacing to provide a custom fit without smothering your foot, and a padded tongue and collar that wick away moisture from your feet.
There is reflective material all around the New Balance 1012 to help keep you visible in low light conditions.
The ortholite insole is removable and perforated to help wick away moisture as well.
The midsole provides stablility and cushioning on the instep through a Stabilicore medial support system and a lengthened Stability Web for arch support, increased stability, and mild pronation control.
The outsole is made of a durable rubber compound, and there are N-ergy pads in both the heel and forefoot to give you good shock absorption and cushioning.
The suggested running shoe retail price of the New Balance 1012 is $129.99, which is comparable to the price of the Brooks Ariel when you compare motion control running shoes by price.
