Review on Optimized for Search: New Balance Thunder Minimus Trainer by Damon Fuqua

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great all-round sneaker

I only bought these shoes to wear to the gym (both cardio and strength training). They felt a bit odd when I first put them on as I'm used to wearing awkward/heavy tennis shoes. They definitely feel a little tight (in a good way, and that's what I had in mind when I bought a half size smaller than usual - I didn't want any wiggle room). About 15 minutes after the first use, the "weird" feeling was completely gone. Now the shoes feel incredibly comfortable, like I'm not wearing shoes at all. They offer excellent (if minimal) support and feel well connected to the ground. Burrito tongue is great too! I don't think I could find shoes that fit me better in this price range. I would highly recommend this shoe to anyone looking for an athletic shoe that doesn't like the typical clunky tennis shoes.

Pros
  • I love the low profile and ventilation of this shoe. I don't like the new balance price.
Cons
  • Too small. didn't look like it in the pictures.
