Why We Like The New Balance Fresh Foam X Hierro V8
The Fresh Foam X Hierro V8 Trail Running Shoe is what we get when New Balance takes its best running technologies to the trail. Their proprietary Fresh Foam X midsoles absorb shock when we run over rocks and roots while providing plenty of energy return, and the Vibram Megagrip rubber gives us gobs of grip on all kinds of terrain, wet or dry. Compared to the V7, the updated Hierro V8 features improved cushioning, a more stable fit, and more protection.

Really poor quality. Pair before these were GTX which were excellent. These are just bad

Sizing
I like this shoe a lot but the new versions sizing is not the same as the older models. Unfortunately these fit larger than the older model even though they say they are the same size. Pretty annoying.

Great shoe
This is my third pair of Hierros and just like the previous two versions I've owned they are extremely comfortable. This is a very high quality shoe with great features.

Comfortable but not so durable
Very comfortable and light shoes - super bouncy and good for knee trouble. But not the most robust trail shoe - laces have frayed on a simple walk through woods, cushioning has compacted and tongue constantly moves to the side. Expensive shoes should be perfect - these aren’t unfortunately and hard to see how they have been tested.

Good shoes cheap shoe laces
The Fresh Foam X Hierro v8 fit well, are comfortable and the soles are well cushioned. My only complaint is that the shoe laces are very thin and cheap. Expected better laces on shoes at this price level.

Excellent All Terrain footwear
These are exactly what I was looking for in a work shoe. I have an extremely active outdoor job on all sorts of terrain. These are lightweight, provide all day comfort, and the built in toe protector is a great addition. Could use a size 18 4E option, but overall the fitment is great as always with New Balance.
