As someone weighing 90kilos with US size 9, fresh foam more v4 gets compressed by my sheer weight and feels dead while running compared to the nimbus' soft and compliant midsole. The problem with nimbus is the hot upper, running at 36c is a challenge compared to more's much breathable upper.
Love your vids, Tim! Also, really digging this colorway of the More v4...I just bought the Skechers Max Road 6 and through 2 runs, I think it will be a really good easy day/long run shoe but man, the deals on the More v4 right now have me tempted
Hey thanks Josh I really appreciate it. I’m enjoying the More V4. I pre ordered the NB Supercomp Trainer V2 and I’m looking forward trying them out. Hopefully I’ll have them in a couple weeks. Have a great day!
Great video. I just ordered the same More V4’s from Joe’s NB Outlet. Taking them for the first spin tomorrow. Will also probably wear them for my long run this weekend (14 miles). We’ll see how they do!
I also overpronate (left foot), and with my Gel-Nimbus 25, I notice that I can't run well in uneven sidewalks without seeing my left heel collapsing inwards. No matter how wide the base is, the Gel-Nimbus 25 was a bit of a disappointment to me. I can still run well with it if I run slower than my slow speeds or can run directly on the asphalt roads. And to think that last year, I did not get the More v4 because it looked too tall ... it looks like to be taller than the Nimbus... oh well, I guess my favorite cushioning shoes from Asics from now on will be the Gel-Kayano...30 .
Tim your reviews are excellent in covering all the aspects of the shoes, I have seen many videos but none of the youtuber covered this important part which is flexing the NB-MORE shoe from the front 11:01 which you have covered very well, Its important to see from where all and how much the shoes can flex before making a decision, you know the pulse of the audience, keep producing such great videos, cheers :) 2 Important wins for NB over ASICS - NB flexes very well from the forefoot and its Stability factor is better than Asics
Most if not all New Balance shoes are not for people with Low lateral ankle bones like me. I have to give all of NB shoes some surgery for a proper fit. For low lateral ankle bones, The best brands are Saucony & Asics.
You make a great point. There are brands and models of shoes that I have to modify to get a good fit usually by swapping out the insole. The Hoka Rincon is one that I have to do that for. Have a great weekend !
A very good video.. After watching this I bought the More V4 and they are super comfortable.. I also have a flat feet and I over pronate a lot.. The More V4 does a great job in providing stability as well
Got both and just got the v4 today so haven't ran in em but did wear them to work. Got both for sumilar prices. The Nimbis on Amazon were $119 and the v4 were $96. The v4 feels squishier, i do like the way the nimbus has extra padding and feel more secure around the ankle. The v4s look better asthetically to me personally. I really enjoy my Novablast 3s as well. The v4 seems to have a wider toe box which is good for me although i got the nimbis in 12 x wide and v4 i got 13 regular size. I would be happy with either but since I now have both im even more happy 😂😂 I'm a big guy (6ft 285lbs) who has started running about a month ago so every run is a slow recovery type run for me. As i drop more weight and run longer I may look at some shoes with more rebound but ill be good for a while
Great reviews as always thankyou. Its probably worth mentioning that gel heel pads are a couple of quid a pair and will make any shoe a more comfy ride. Some of my shoes are so padded they don't need it but i have high mileage shoes that are greatly improved by adding pads and so more miles can be had 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
I'm also about 135lbs. but I find the More v4 too soft for long runs. I feel like I'm working too hard. I really liked the More v3 and I still wear it to work as a nurse. I'm thinking about a less chunky max cushioned shoe, like the Saucony Triumph or the Puma Magnify 2. Even the Asics Cumulus has 37 mm of stack.
I have a lot of respect for you with your career choice. Thanks for all you do to care for people. It’s a noble profession. I get that about the More V4. When I look down at my feet they look huge like I’m wearing snow shoes….lol. There are some really great max cushion shoes out there. Have fun shoe shopping and have a great day!
Its good when people doing reviews state their weight, I'm 200lbs and 6.2.. I like the NB 1080 shoes but the foam compresses to much for me. Think that might happen to me in the More v4 as well. I do like the Nike zoomX foam, it's soft but it doesn't compress as much as the fresh foam of new balance. With that said, I can run in new balance fuel cell foam with no problem.
Hey thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. The more V4 does compress as much or more than the 1080. They definitely feel softer to run in than the 1080. Have fun shoe shopping! Have a great day.
I'm not sure what happens after using them for some time, but in a shop the 1080 felt flat. They didn't bottom out like Rebels V3, which were just too soft. But the ride in 1080 seems more made for walking or landing on forefoot. The More doesn't have a plate inside, but the rocker build makes it more springy in the middle and propels the feet while walking or running.
First time watching your video and I really appreciate rhe details! Just a quick question: I'm 183cm and 86kg (looking to drop down to 80kg). I do easy runs from 5 - 20km. Which one of these two, as well as the NB sc trainer 2, do you think i should get? Thanks!
If you are buying only for running, then I would consider SC Trainer. It propels you to have more speed, while maintaining squishiness and comfort. But it is not a shoe you want to be standing in for prolonged time. The stiff rocker is also quite weird when walking slowly. Another downside is lower durability of fuelcell. If you only run in them it's ok, but I wouldn't expect them to last if they are your only daily shoes. You just can't go wrong with either of the other two. I mean when I tried Nimbus, my feet fell in love. Perfect plushiness no matter what you do. Of course it means there isn't much energy return for faster pace. The More feel more bouncy and their rocker propels you for going a bit faster. The comfort is still great.
They are both good. I also like the Hoka Bondi and for stability the Gaviota. Between these 2 shoes I like the Asics Gel Nimbus 25 a little more for walking and standing. Thanks for watching and have a great day. Stay safe.
The 1080V12 is more versatile. They are soft yet you can pick up the speed pretty well if you wanted to do some speed work in them. The More V4 is a very soft ride with a large landing platform in the forefoot. They are super comfy but not as quick and really not great for speed work. Have a great day and stay safe.
@@RunTallthanks, sounds good to me... I have plantar fasciitis, and can only go up to 4km max before the pain creeping in with my 1080v12... perhaps more v4 can help me to go for 5km with no pain... what do you think?
@@danieltay1052 First, I am sorry that you are dealing with PF. I have had my issues with that as well and it's very frustrating. So, yes I think these might help. They are very soft and I've found them to be really comfortable for me to run in. I am not having any issues with PF at the moment but i am coming off a tendonitis issue and these are comfortable for me to run in. Have a great day.
Hi Tim , I am a heavy man My weight is 230 bound , height is 1 meter 65 cm I will start running to loose weight . Which running shoes is best for me Thanks
You might like the Gel Nimbus 25 over the More V4. The More V4 has a more squishy midsole while the nimbus 25 is highly cushioned but firmer. Have a great day!
Hi, I’m 6ft tall and weigh 300lbs my feet are 12.5 wide. Planning to buy one of these shoes as my only shoe for working out, school and work. Which one would you recommend? Thanks and have a great day
Hey Mark. I'd probably go with the Asics Gel Nimbus 25. The NB More V4 might be a little to squishy for you. I love to run in them but the midsole on the More V3 pretty much died when I got up to the 150 to 200 mile mark. I think the More V4 will probably be similar in terms of durability. And the Gel Nimbus does come in a wide. Have a great day.
As someone weighing 90kilos with US size 9, fresh foam more v4 gets compressed by my sheer weight and feels dead while running compared to the nimbus' soft and compliant midsole. The problem with nimbus is the hot upper, running at 36c is a challenge compared to more's much breathable upper.
Thanks for your feedback. Good to know as I’m similar weight as you. I have been using the superblast for my long runs and enjoy them a lot.
Im 6'2'' and about 80kgs and the Nimbus is definitely the better shoe for anything over 7-8kms.
The More compresses and degrades way way faster.
@@iosifkovalenko8364I use superblast for longer runs too and nimbus for easy recovery type days. Nimbus feels better at slower paces.
Hey thanks for sharing the info. It really helps out our fellow runners! Have a great day!
That's interesting. I weigh 210 lbs and the mores don't do that to me even when I do 6:30 per mile pace.

I also like to think I'm 5'7"
I think there's something wrong with the doctor's measurement 😉
Lol…. Me too! Have a great day.
I'll stick with my More v4 due to the 4 mm heel drop. Yes it's a brick, & yes it gets hot here in NorCal. But the More works for me.
Hi Michael. I’m really enjoying them also. Have a great day!
@@RunTall Cheers Tim. You as well.
