New Balance 587

The New Balance 587 is a heavy runner’s dream, providing excellent support and comfort in one simple ride.

It sports a great motion control system, compliments of the ROLLBAR TPU system, which minimizes rear foot movement. Its ABZORB system is a cushion that reduces compression, and is made of isoprene rubber to make for a smooth ride. It is made of breathable mesh and lightweight synthetic leather upper for comfort. It has a C-Cap forefoot for durable cushioning, and a durable midsole is full of tough poly urethane, and can withstand a big man’s footsteps. This shoe is built with the heavy over pronator in mind whose feet tend to break down the midsole when running. The weight of the shoe is a re-assuring 15 oz.

Users and testers of the New Balance 587 praised the shoe as being the best running shoe they’ve ever had, particularly the heavy runners for whom the shoe was designed for. Users and testers noted that the shoe was superbly comfortable, and not just great for running, but performing everyday activities as well.

They said that the shoe felt so light and comfortable that they forgot it is even there. This particular series of New Balance has a fan base, as users and testers were satisfied owners of the shoe’s predecessors.

Many runners enjoyed the shoe so much that they intended to purchase multiple versions of the same shoe whenever their current pair wore out.


Casual runners will find this shoe superb outside marathons or anything that requires you to go fast ( you’ll most likely need racing flats on those events anyway ). The shoe is also friendly to orthotic users, making this a very accommodating ride for anyone with a heavy body and a needy foot.

The price of the New Balance 587 ranges from $80 to $120 on Amazon.

This motion control running shoe is recommended for the casual heavy runner in search of an exceptional amount of comfort and support with reassuring and excellent motion control.
