Review on New Balance Fresh Running Silver Men's Athletic Shoes by Sal Muniz

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the scratch.

They are very comfortable shoes and they appear to be well made. The sizing seems perfect for my very wide 8 1/2 foot with lots of toe room. This was my first New Balance purchase in years due to comfort issues I had with some of their earlier models. I decided to give them another chance and was very happy with the comfort of the Evare. However, the right shoe has developed a very annoying squeaky/squeaky sole after only 5 months of light use. I've tried everything including baking soda under the insole to no avail. I called New Balance to express my dissatisfaction but was told that since I bought the shoes from Walmart they would go through any warranty that I know is 90 days. The support rep also said that the warranty directly from New Balance is only 45 days. I know any manufacturer can have this squeaking problem but now I'm afraid to try anything else from New Balance which is a shame as I really liked them.

Pros
  • Great comfort
Cons
  • Limited range of color options
