The New Balance Minimus Zero was named Women’s Running Magazine’s Best Racer. This shoe features a zero-millimeter drop for a more natural running experience than ever before.

Neutral. Now you can truly take the minimalist running movement to the streets. The New Balance 00, or Minimus Zero, is pushing the boundaries of minimal footwear. A zero drop midsole provides all the benefits of natural running without sacrificing the protection of a shoe.

Upper: No-sew material application completely removes irritating seams for better comfort. Anti microbial treatment fights odor. Ultra-lightweight mesh upper for maximum breathability and ventilation.

Midsole: REVLite innovative midsole foam compound provides the same responsiveness and durability of heavier foams without minimizing construction or sacrificing cushioning.

Outsole: Vibram® rubber outsole for maximum durability and traction.

"The Minimus Zero combines the best features of a personal record-friendly race course (fast and flat) in one superstar shoe. Weighing in at less than five ounces and boasting a zero-millimeter drop (the vertical distance from the heel to toe), these shoes are part natural running trainer and part racing flat. One 5k runner explained, ‘I am eager to slip them on right before the start of a race to get that light, fast feeling.’ The Zero’s are a good fit for racers with a need for speed, or for any runner bitten by the barefoot-bug"
