This shoe ended up being perfect for me. I fell in love with the 1080 v13, but they were TOO unstable for me recovering from quad tendon rupture and repair. The vongo V6 felt like the perfect balance of those 1080's with the stability I was lacking. For those reading my comment, my purchase was not for running, but for walking at work (I'm a nurse). So my statement is about walking around in the shoe more than it is about running/jogging. I will be cleared to work towards jogging in about 2 months though, so we will see....
~The heel is low, I can feel my heel slipping. The upper is not breathable. Slightly heavier than Morev4 but this is bottom heavy. ~The guidance is achieve by putting more harder foam in the arch. Instep standing feel, my feet is straight like in most neutral shoes. The heavier or the more you compress the foam, the more you will feel the guidance. Because "it doesn't let your arch collapse". The lighter you are, the more this will feel like a neutral shoes. ~In contrast to ForeverRun, the guidance is achieve by having thicker arch in insole. Instep standing feel, my arch is like being pushed (medial side is higher). The heavier or the more you compress the foam then it will collapse to feel straight like a neutral shoes. "It have an allowance for arch to collapse"
Than's for your review. In your opinion, what stability shoes a batter, Vango v5 or Saucony Guide 17 to train and run marathon? Or another question, what in your opinion best stability shoe for pronator to run marathon and trainings?
I'm curious about how rigid that EVA film actually is. It looks so much like a typical "plate" , that people just assume it must the same as familiar plates. Also curious whether Vongo 6 will be NB's competitor against something like Kayano 30. The 'More v5' might be closer to my lane, if it is stable enough. Don't like the sound of the snug fit, as I largely turn to NB to gain mercy for my wide/flattened feet. I don't dislike medial wedging, and I would be more worried that they might over-do the softness of the lower layer to appease neutral people.
lately that I'm rocking Converses, why no brand has experimented with a high top running shoe? specially for summer/trail, well kinda pegasus gtx is that but no much more
I have the Kayano 30. The Kayano 30 is deceptively firm, looks like a big loaf of soft cushioning but it's much firmer than the 1080v13 (and the vongo also since they have similar FFX), and firmer than the ghost max as well. I have only held a glycerin in hand but the Kayano felt firmer. Kayano is a good shoe but it's not a stable pillow feeling. More like a stable firm surface. There's impact protection but there's very little foam compression.@@frontierlandfrank5314
Ghost Max is a neutral trainer. It has many things that make it feel stable, but a neutral shoe. The vongo is more stable and has some elements that work to make it so like a curved plate that pushes runners forward, but it is not for runners who tend to supinate as it makes you go laterally more. Medial stability runners should do fine.

This is why I love your reviews. I was going to buy before I tried, but now it sounds like I need to try before I buy. Keep up the good work.
PLEASE make a comparison/difference between new balance vongo v6 and 860 v14...
Came here to say the same thing!

Sounds like they're using the new FFX in the 1080v13.
👍💪🔥

I run in the glycerin GTS, does this rival that in soft ride and stability?
In softness it is close, but glycerin has much higher level of stability throughout
@@DoctorsofRunning thank you, I want a softer ride than the glycerin with the stability. Maybe the gel kayano 30 fits that better? Thanks again.

Is this providing even less stability than Vongo V5?
Yeah, if u focus on Matt around 3:21, it does seem like he is saying NB is aiming at something fairly subtle.
Hi, the vongoV6 is more or less stable than the brooks ghost max? Both are described as moderate stability.😅
Ghost Max is a neutral trainer. It has many things that make it feel stable, but a neutral shoe. The vongo is more stable and has some elements that work to make it so like a curved plate that pushes runners forward, but it is not for runners who tend to supinate as it makes you go laterally more.

@@DoctorsofRunning thank you so much for your super fast answer 😉
What provides more ankle stability, this or kayano 30? These seem very squishy.
Definitely Kayano!
@@DoctorsofRunningperfect thanks!
I need it to push me in a little not out. Not the shoe for me.
Yeah everyone is different. I naturally go in so I'm the opposite of you and need something to push me out.
