Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Revolutionary Performance: New Balance Women's Solvi V2 Running Shoe by Ryan Reiter

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nice padding on shoe

I've been running for decades and I take it seriously. I prefer New Balance and I know they tend to run about 1/2 size too small so I usually order at least 1 size up to have enough room for my toes and to fit gel or athletic insoles. These shoes have much better cushioning than the last pair I had - maybe because I spent a little more and got a higher # (because I was actually going to use them for hard running, not just looking like I used to be only sporty drive my car in the parking lot). I would give them a higher rating but even though I ordered a full size the toe box still feels too tight. This may be because they are new and stiff and will stretch more as I continue to use them. My advice: unless you like bruises and blisters underneath and in the nail bed, give your nails some love until the new nail grows in and the outer nail is lost. Yes, it hurts at first. The toe protectors that you can buy in pharmacies are very helpful, just keep yourself clean and try not to sweat.

Pros
  • Available in seasonal colors: These New Balance shoes come in a variety of fresh seasonal colors so you can stylishly upgrade your current workout gear
Cons
  • I'm writing back
