“When I did the first run review of the SC Elite V6 on Saturday, 23 miles out the box.”

“version six fits awesome. Nice wide toe box without being sloppy. And the midsole is what I like. It is mildly compliant, highly resilient. Shoe feels super light on foot. I think the plate design is super interesting... But this shoe checks all the boxes. Light, bouncy, not too soft, comfortable fit... it's definitely for me the best New Balance super shoe out there”

“If you've ever run in something like this before, a carbon plated shoe, you'll know that the combination of a really bouncy midsole, which gives you a high energy return, and a stiff carbon fiber plate, which you can actually see in the middle of this shoe. This is the New Balance SC Elite V6 that Meg's going to be running in at a later point in this video, make you run faster. But what's been scientifically proven now is that these shoes with those two combinations of the foam and the plate actually improve your running economy, which basically means you can run faster for the same effort or the same energy used. Carbon shoes have also been found to reduce muscle fatigue.”

“it was just a very well-rounded, approachable shoe that I could use for any sort of long run, whether I was feeling strong, whether I was going to hang back and and not be putting down as much power, whether I wanted something with a little bit more bite, or whether I wanted something more relaxed.”

“I think it's a really good shoe. It's definitely it's moved on a bit more from the V5 and that's a good thing.”

“the durability is a bit of a question mark for me. I've never had this before. I think Tom had it, and the heel pad here has come off after, you know, that was on my half marathon. So yeah, we're talking about kind of not many miles in this shoe, and I've got a big flappy flat flap thing here. So that is not good.”

FORDY RUNS58K subscribersmixed

“I found myself always sort of dropping down to that eight minute miles this shoe was that four was it 5-minute kilometers I think? Yeah, 5-minute kilometers in the shoe and it wanted me to go faster.”

“Thomas and Meg review the New Balance SC Elite V6, a race day shoe featuring 40mm of Infinion foam with an 8mm drop, a carbon fiber plate, and a FANTOMFIT upper. The team is divided on this one - how does it rank?”

Emily Heller24K subscribersmixed

“Moving down to the outsole of the SC Elite V6. New Balance is using a new rubber compound that they say is lighter, going to reduce the overall weight of the shoe.”

“I'm going to be testing the New Balance SC Elite V6s today. I tried them out yesterday park run, really really like them. I've got the first run video up now. Um but, I did rip the bottoms off the the rubber on the outsole. So, hopefully, the shoe glue that I've put on is going to survive it.”

“I think this performs like Puma's DV8 Nitro Elite 4. Very similar kind of vibe.”

Doctors of Running50K subscribersmixed

“Version 6 is bouncy, responsive. The resilience is up. There's more bounce out of the midsole. And it's a lot softer, meaning more compliant.”

“Every few years brands try to really, really innovate and sometimes it leads to major changes to beloved silhouettes... I'm kind of lukewarm on it.”

“it fits much, much nicer and much more snug than the SC Elite V6 does, uh which for me fit a little bit way too roomy”

“The SC Elite V5 was a good shoe, light, more responsive, great upper and super grip. And again, with this New Balance model, I'm quite excited to pick up the sixth update. New Balance suggests the weight is coming in below 190 g for the sample size. So, whilst that's low, it's still not as low as some of the other brands Metaspeed line from ASICS, for example, that was coming in a bit under 200 g.”

RadDadBodTV17K subscribersmixed

“For the V6, this comes in at $275, and from a weight perspective, again, men's size 9 and a half, it's 6.7 oz and 190 g. So, you're going to be in mid to low sixes in a traditional size nine. You can see that the toe box or the upper is really, really thin. It's really kind of like a, you know, breathable mesh with some phantom fit overlays for lockdown purposes. And then, underfoot, you have that AT PU that we're talking about, plus a full carbon fiber plate with a little bit of a slot there through the midsole. I think this sits somewhere in the middle where it's going to be capable of racing anywhere from 5K up to marathon depending on your preferences. It's definitely more aggressive though than some previous models of the SC Elite, which in my mind is a good thing and hopefully it's going to be faster overall.”

“New foam, new geometry, and less weight. Here's everything you need to know about the new New Balance SE Elite V6. Built for runners chasing personal bests from the 10K through to the marathon.”

RadDadBodTV17K subscribersmixed

“I think that where this sits is still in this middle ground of for you know the average runner grabbing a super shoe wanting to run fast wanting something that's going to be supportive that's going to be comfortable but still have speed assistance. I think that's where this kind of fits in the middle, right? So, I I'm not blown away by by it”

“You only need to go and watch my New Balance SC Elite version 6 review to find out exactly what I'm talking about there.”

Doctors of Running50K subscriberspositive

“The other one that I wanted to compare to today is the New Balance SC Elite version 6. Now I've seen varying sources, whether it's TPEE or ATPU, but it's a supercritical, next-generation foam in this super shoe. 6.7 ounces in men's size 9. This one tapers a little bit, but it has a little bit of a wider forefoot compared to the other ones. And so if you have some width concerns, this could be a better option. Volume's a little bit lower. This midsole does a great job of taking a beating with like a moderate bounce out of it. It probably has the least bounce out of the bunch that I brought up today, but it has a nice controlled and steady ride. If I was running a marathon tomorrow out of all of these shoes, this probably is the top of the list right now. And it just has a little bit more structure to it all around. Nice wide forefoot. Heel is like average width, but that deep midline groove seems to keep you a little bit more centered. It doesn't feel unstable. I thought it was going to feel a little unstable when I first started running in it. Upper is very comfortable. You just kind of have a streamlined fit to it. Thin tongue. The heel probably is thicker than it needs to be. You have a good amount of padding in the heel collar there, but all in all, it's a comfortable fitting shoe.”
