Review on New Balance FuelCore Running Porcelain Sports & Fitness for Running by Corey Bigglesworth

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I LOVE my new NB shoes!

Considering that last Black Friday I spent a lot of time reading reviews of so many running shoes, over and over, for hours, and finally settled on these shoes - many thanks to the detailed reviews from other customers I only have to pay in advance! These shoes are AMAAAAZZZZZZ! My fourth pair of NB shoes overall (the second will be purchased from Revain). And they are the BEST yet! I was mainly looking for shoes that can be used both in and out of the gym (and also for training) - shoes that have especially GREAT support, because the support of my other two shoes isn't great at all (my 3rd pair it's more of a crossfit training shoe). I have worn these shoes twice in my gym and so far unlike the previous ones they have not slipped on the floor (even when wet). Although I don't wear them outside yet because we've had a couple of snowstorms since buying them (we've mostly been in snowshoes) but with the amazing grip they give on the gym floor I have no doubts about it. It will last amazingly long outdoors on both ice/moderate snow and water. I was able to wear them comfortably right out of the box without breaking them in - in fact, I wore them to the gym the morning after they were delivered to my apartment! Although I still put my insoles in them (simply because I've had horrible shin splints in the past and am always paranoid that it will come back), these shoes are EXTREMELY COMFORTABLE on my feet and don't need extra insoles/ orthotics unless you are someone like me ;) Also they are true to size and GREAT than on the Revain site lol (I've attached pics taken after I took them out of the box). Plus, the price is decent too - to be honest, they're WAY MORE AMAZING than the pricey $120 Over Pronator NB shoes I bought earlier this year. Did I mention that the shipping was super fast too (shoes ordered on Black Friday were delivered to my apartment on Cyber Monday evening)? inexpensive, comfortable, great pair of shoes with great traction (although as mentioned I haven't tested the grip on ice/snow), go for these shoes! You'll be glad you did :)
