New Balance 760 Night Race Rainbow Pack

This Bull’s eye spotted running shoes a couple of days ago at Runnr: New Balance 760 Night Race Rainbow Pack. Talk about starting the new year with a bang!

First time I spotted something close to these bright and bold NB shoe colors was way back in December 2009 when David of Team Fatbird had it on during their carboloading party for Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon.  I just had to take a photo.

NB 760

I have a pair of NB 760′s which I used at Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon last February but it’s blue and white and not nearly as pretty.  It’s a shoe that I found had ample cushioning and was good for training, but not great for a marathon as it was quite bulky and heavy.  For these rainbow colors though, I may be more than willing to carry the extra weight!

New Balance 760 is available at Runnr, New Balance (Shangrila, Glorietta, Festival Mall, Marquee), Planet Sports (Rockwell, Trinoma, Glorietta, Cebu), Athlete’s Foot (Glorietta, Cebu).

Price: P4,995.

  1. Oh! These shoes are such an eye candy and head turner! I saw them at Runnr Cebu! Is this a cushioned shoes for people with normal to high arched, normal to slight overpronation like me?

  6. Hi jaymie, isn’t it the 760 is light compared to the newer models like the 1226? Can you recommend a good shoe for a full marathon? :)

    • Hi Ian,

      Yup it’s slightly lighter. 760 men’s 12.1 ounces vs 1226 12.7. I prefer even lighter shoes.

      There’s no perfect shoe for everyone. It’s really a matter of preference and finding the shoe that will match your foot type.

      Personally, I’ve used Nike Lunar Glide 1 for most of my marathons, but now that it’s out of circulation I’m forced to search for a new marathon shoe. I’m considering Nike Lunar Eclipse and Asics 2150. Haven’t tried them both yet. For marathon training, I use Brooks Glycerin 8, NB 760, Newton Universal racers. For racing, Newton racers, Asics Gel trainers, and NB 801.

      • My shoes now is the Asics 2150, and I’m happy with it! Gives me the support I need, I’m flat-footed kasi eh.

        This colorful 760 is sooooo pretty!!!! I want this for the second pair I’m planning to get! Baka kasi there might be nothing left na of my Asics come TBR Dream Marathon race day hehe. I just need to convince the hubby to buy it for me… Sabi niya kasi it looks like naduraan ng Skittles yung color eh :P

      • hi jaymie, I’m supposed to wear stability+ shoes coz I weigh 185-188lbs. is it ok to use regular stability shoes for races? Lunarglides worked great for me for the last 8 months. But just to be safe, I also bought NB1226s.

  7. I think these running shoes have my name written all over them! I’ll have to look for these here in Cali :)
