Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Superior Performance in New Balance Women's 1400 V1 Trail Walking Boot by Gina Putnam

Revainrating 5 out of 5

No break-in period, great support

I bought these for vigorous hikes in very steep mountains and wanted ankle support but didn't want to spend $200. I looked at many, many different hiking boots and hiking shoes and they seemed to fit me in terms of features and price. They don't look too ugly either! Right out of the box they felt comfortable right away and my feet felt great in them. I took her on a day hike that was challenging in terms of quality, but also featured a lot of loose shale and quartz that had broken loose during a recent storm. I had no problems going up or down, even the steepest sections. After not being able to wear them at first, I wore them long and hard the very first time and was so happy to have them. After the hike my legs felt great and I never turned back. I'm a bit annoyed that I didn't check the country of origin as I usually stick with New Balance which are made in the USA and haven't checked that as long as I'm wearing them (made in Vietnam) but I'm happy with that this purchase and would recommend it to anyone.

Pros
  • Sequins
Cons
  • Some small things
