Make quick work of long distances in the New Balance LD5K v7. New Balance built the LD5K v7 for long distance track events, like the 5K or 10K. A lightweight knit upper with bootie construction gives you a snug fit without weighing you down, and a new collar creates a sleek, secure fit around your heel. Generous perforations let the shoe drain quickly, making it ideal for steeplechase, and a water-resistant treatment keeps the shoe from getting waterlogged after a good soaking. With a full-length pebax plate and removable spikes for superior traction, the New Balance LD5K v7 is primed for your best race yet.
