New Balance Fresh Foam X Hierro v9 Trail Running Shoe - Women's Mulled Wine/Neo Flame

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I put the Hierro v9 through a long day of mixed trail running that included creek crossings, loose granite, and plenty of rooty singletrack, and it held up through every stretch of it.

The dual-density midsole struck a great balance between that plush, cushioned feel on the flats and the firmer stability I needed when the terrain got unpredictable on the descents."Every trail has a moment where the terrain earns your full attention, and the New Balance Fresh Foam X Hierro v9 Trail Running Shoe is built to meet that moment without hesitation.

Whether the route winds through wet forest singletrack, climbs loose rocky pitches, or drops into rooted descents, this shoe delivers the grip and protection needed to keep moving with confidence from start to finish.

The dual-density Fresh Foam X midsole is the foundation of that confidence, with a softer top layer that absorbs impact on long miles and a firmer bottom layer that steadies each stride on uneven ground.

A small percentage of bio-based content in the foam reflects a thoughtful step toward more sustainable construction without compromising the cushioned ride.

The Vibram Megagrip outsole with Traction Lug technology and a revamped tread pattern grips hard in both wet and dry conditions, while the gusseted tongue seals the fit against dirt and debris.

Toe Protect technology rounds things out by shielding against the rocks and roots that trail running tends to serve up without warning, making the Hierro v9 a shoe that earns trust the more miles it sees.
