The New Balance AC Runner is a sport-training runner for athletes who need reliable performance footwear for conditioning runs, drills, and cross-training — as well as everyday wear. At its core is a Fresh Foam X midsole engineered with three distinct levels of foam firmness, delivering cushioning suitable for different movement types, from explosive lateral cuts to steady-pace runs. Firm durometer foam rails in the midsole add stability for both linear and side-to-side motion. A sculpted midsole and breathable mesh upper with printed graphics make a statement on and off the field.

Does the AC Runner work for all-day wear, or is it strictly a training shoe?

The AC Runner is designed for both—it's built to handle conditioning runs and athletic drills, but its comfort-focused cushioning and Fresh Foam X midsole make it equally suited for all-day wear on and off the field.

Is the AC Runner available in wide widths?

Yes, the women's AC Runner comes in both Standard (B) and Wide (D) widths, so shoppers with wider feet have a roomier option available.

I have plantar fasciitis—could this shoe work for me?

Given its cushioning and arch support, it may be helpful for various foot conditions. That said, fit needs vary by individual so please consult your doctor.

Should I size up in the AC Runner?

Shoppers with wider feet have noted that sizing up can improve fit, particularly if you're between sizes or plan to wear the Wide (D) width. If you're unsure, the Size & Fit Guide on the product page can help.

What are the three foam firmness levels in the midsole, and why do they matter?

The Fresh Foam X midsole uses three different foam densities to provide cushioning and support across different movement types—from explosive sprints and lateral cuts to more relaxed, everyday strides—so the shoe doesn't feel either too stiff or too soft regardless of what you're doing.

Is the AC Runner good for everyday training runs?

Yes. The AC Runner is designed for the conditioning runs, training sessions, and drills that athletes perform regularly. Its Fresh Foam X midsole provides reliable cushioning for daily use.

How much does the women's AC Runner weigh?

The women's AC Runner U.S. size 7 weighs approximately 258 grams (9.1 oz), making it a comfortable option for extended training sessions and all-day wear.

What cushioning technology does the AC Runner use?

The AC Runner uses New Balance Fresh Foam X with three different foam firmness levels working together to cushion everyday strides while supporting more explosive, lateral movements. Firm durometer foam rails are integrated into the midsole for added stability.
