Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Thistle Women's New Balance Running Shoes - Women's Shoes by Kawaguchi Burgess

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great all round shoe for travel, everyday and training

I bought these shoes with the intention of traveling in them - I wanted something light and comfortable for daily walks of 10+ miles. , an off-white sole (because I have a hard time keeping my shoes clean!), and not the flashy "American Hiking Boots". Lots of drawers to check but this shoe nailed it. I've got my eye on Allbirds touring boots, but I've heard wool tends to pick up leaves and dirt if, like me, you're into off-roading at all. The tan color of these shoes should ward off a little dirt. The first day of the burglary was great: I mowed the lawn, worked in the garden, went to the gym, rode my bike and ran a half mile. in this. I did not miss in these shoes. There were no scratches anywhere and I forgot I had them on. I've worn them bare for a while and with socks for a while - they were great on both occasions. I also want to point out that they make great CrossFit shoes: they have a slightly raised heel that mimics weightlifting shoes, but not so much that you can't run or wear them for normal activities. about half a size smaller. I usually have a 9.5 and bought a 10 after reading the reviews. I'm very glad I made it to the 10th. There is room in the toe area, but they are tighter around the ankles. One thing that wasn't obvious from the picture is that the tongue is not separate from the shoe. I thought it was a problem when I took them out of the box, but after a few toggles, they're fine. I would not recommend these if you have any mobility issues when pulling things towards you as these shoes are more difficult to put on initially due to the attached tongue. However, I love them and may buy another color for everyday use.

Pros
  • Easy to wear
Cons
  • Makes me angry
