New Balance MD800 v5 · Men's Middle-Distance Spike
A tactical spike with a clean metallic edge
The men's New Balance MD800 v5 in Silver/Black is a race-focused spike for tactical events from 400 m to 3K, pairing a six-spike Pebax plate with a close, streamlined upper.
For tactical races and decisive moves
The MD800 v5 is built to feel direct and aggressive on synthetic tracks. Its six-pin layout helps with starts, curves, and late-race acceleration, while the upper holds the foot securely as pace changes.
Silver and black deliver a precise, stripped-back appearance suited to serious competition.
