Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Performance at Its Best: New Balance Men's 520 V6 Running Shoe by Harry Katab

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It's good to walk the dog.

Shoes look good and are relatively comfortable to wear. The problem is that I bought running shoes. The fit is decent and the shoe offers a good click when the toe is off the ground. This is where my positive comments end. The shoe doesn't hold the foot well, resulting in a lot of displacement on rough terrain (not off-road, but regular roads and sidewalks). I'm a fairly light midfoot runner (5ft 9in, 165lbs) but in these shoes I feel like I'm straining my knees with every step. I don't like cushioned shoes because of the lack of buckles, but they could use some extra cushioning. I changed the insoles but that only made them heavier. I don't recommend these shoes for running, but they are good enough for walking.

Pros
  • Comfortable to wear
Cons
  • Transparency
