New Balance 1340V3 Athletic Men's Running Shoes in Black Review

Was rubbing my head for the first so many miles. Now they're hacked and I live on them. I have problems with my feet and NB always helps me. Love her.

After installing Superfeet and removing due to heavy squeaks (fixed with baby powder) they are supportive, comfortable and I hope they wear out.

I know it's a running shoe, but that's how you run at my age. They fit well, look good and are comfortable for longer walks. This is the second pair I bought on short notice because I really liked the first pair and wanted to make sure they wouldn't stop making them on me.

There are few shoes on the market that are ideal for orthotics. This is one of them. In addition, this shoe is resistant to toe wear.

I have been buying New Balance for many years. Unfortunately they have become too painful to wear at the set price point. no thanks more

Excellent runner with motion controls. If you have flat feet and haven't bought a motion control shoe yet, do yourself a favor and buy one.

The size ordered according to the dimension grid is not correct. The size delivered was larger than indicated in the table. Shoes have been returned

These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever had on my feet and the motion controls negate my overpronation and keep my feet pointed in the right direction. I love these shoes and what a pity that New Balance is discontinuing them. I just don't understand how they make decisions.

The top of the shoe seam over the ankle/big toe bone causes toe pain. The seam is poorly done where there is pain when walking/running fast. You need to iron out that seam somehow.

I've been wearing these shoes for several months and they're already falling apart. I have bought many New Balances in the past and have never had any problems like this, leading me to suspect that they may be counterfeit.

I'm so disappointed in them. I love New Balance shoes but these are the worst shoes I have ever worn and they cost over $100! I bought them to walk in but they hurt all the bones and muscles in my legs. You are so heavy!

Measure your foot at your local New Balance store to find the correct shoe size for your foot. Before you put your shoes on, make sure you tighten the bottom of the laces. Wait a while to break in your shoes. I've been using New Balance for 9 years now. I don't recommend this shoe if you run on concrete as it's quite bulky even if the sizing and fit is right. The shoes are suitable for jogging (but not for running). . It is great for hiking as the voluminous bottom provides extra comfort when…

These shoes are not as comfortable as the old NB shoes I bought. I work in a busy trauma center in the ER and need good shoes. These aren't the best. I wish they wouldn't discontinue the ones I bought every 6 months or so. I noticed that they creak a lot when walking. strange ha! I finally put some baby food under the insoles and they stopped squeaking so much.

I've worn the New Balance MW925 and MW927 first walkers before with no problems, but these 1340 V3 had a band of hard material just in front of the tongue that pressed on the top of the foot, midway between the toes and the ankle. I tried wearing them all day with the intention of breaking them, but the pain was too much and I gave up.

I can't think of anything I don't like about shoes. I walk a lot as a museum guide and these shoes are very comfortable to walk for hours on a concrete floor. Also, I have a hammer toe and the upper forefoot design of the shoe allows for an uncomfortable/pain free wear.

As someone with custom insoles after foot/ankle surgery they fit perfectly. As you might expect, a break is required. Wish New Balance would offer these larger sizes wider with the added width. After having my feet digitally measured for orthotics, I was advised on which sizes to try first. Finding the right size is the most important part of buying shoes or sneakers. I have one foot 13 4E and the other almost 14 but 6E (surgical foot) 14 4E or 6E is too big. 13 4E to the stop. The next step…

The great thing about New Balance is that they fit true to size. I have a wide foot and NB always fits. Longtime consumer of NB shoes.

My husband has a very wide foot with left calf muscle atrophy. Helps keep his leg straight and helps him balance. He really likes the shoes but he complained about the price.

Worst New Balance shoes I've ever worn. I've worn NB for over two decades and have never experienced the level of discomfort this shoe causes. The top of the sock constantly pinches my toes and creates a sore line that makes them completely unwearable. This design needs to be dropped and New Balance needs to start from scratch.

I have been buying the 1340 line of shoes for many, many years now. The V3 version is the most uncomfortable shoe I've ever worn. My legs hurt when I carry them. I thought they might need to stretch, which hasn't been necessary with any other version of these shoes. After wearing them for a month, my feet hurt and generally hurt. I went back to my old pair of these V2s and my feet feel great. I need to find a new line of shoes that offer the same level of support as this one.
