Is the newer version worth upgrading to?
Both belong to Fresh Foam X 1080v. Start with what you want to change about your current pair: fit, intended use or a specific construction detail. Read each source-linked model overview below for documented changes. Older or unpublished specifications prevent a complete like-for-like upgrade claim. If your current shoe works well, a new version number alone is not a reason to replace it.
Price and value—not a live deal comparison
Fresh Foam X 1080v13: 155 USD; Fresh Foam X 1080v14: 165 USD. These are recorded offers, potentially from different dates, colors or clearance periods. They are not necessarily launch prices. Check both source links for matching size/width, current price and return policy before deciding which offers better value.
What this comparison cannot establish
We have not independently measured fit, outsole grip, energy return, comfort or durability for this pair. The absence of a rating is not a poor score. No universal winner, injury-prevention claim or race-time improvement is inferred from carbon construction, foam classification or stack height.
