Review on New Balance Womens Minimus Running Women's Shoes and Athletic by Vijay Patel

These shoes run a little small, so I recommend ordering half a size up. I usually wear women's shoes a size 6.5 and after reading other reviews I ordered a size 7 for these shoes. They fit me like a 6.5 so I'm glad I ordered half a size up. I would also like to mention that I am a runner. I've run nearly three dozen marathons, eight 50-mile races and one 100-mile race. I take my shoes very seriously. I usually wear Vibram FiveFingers for running, but living in cold conditions many months of the year I needed to find a minimalist shoe that would keep my feet warm compared to the VFF. the shoes are great. They are so amazing I like them almost as much as my VFF. I have five pairs of these that I flip and have ridden almost 400 miles on one pair. I bet I can still drive them a few hundred miles before they show signs of serious wear. They also offer a bit more protection from rocks and debris compared to my VFF, so I'm happy to wear them on the trails and beyond. rough surfaces. I wore them 70 miles of my 100 mile run and they didn't give me a single blister. The only reason I changed my shoes was because my feet were so swollen and these shoes were too tight. I've ordered a pair a full size larger than I normally wear next time I walk that distance. This shoe is incredibly comfortable. I have tried and failed many types of shoes over the colder months and am so glad I found them!
