Enhanced Performance with New Balance 3000V5 Molded Baseball Men's Shoes in Athletic Design Review

Super comfortable, great looks and the lugs are super sharp for shaped lugs so they feel really fast. Would definitely come back.

Not for me but they appear to have a good foam insole and appear to provide the support my son needs to perform at his best. They seem to have more cushioning than any other pair I've bought and since there are some issues with the tube legs I add an extra layer of liner and it seems to work much better. Much less pain at the end of the exercise.

Shoes fit, design and color are all great. I had a hard time making fast movements or getting the traction I needed. I could feel the spikes buckling and had a hard time stopping when running at full speed.

While I know the product is listed as a Texas orange, I looked at the photo and it turned out to be a more normal orange than that burnt orange tea. Do not use the image as a guide as it is far from accurate. They placed the color orange and the boots were orange!

My son needs wide shoes and this was one of the few shoes that fit him. He says it's the most comfortable baseball shoe he's ever had and prefers fabric to the plastic he's had in the past. would recommend.

Terrible purchase decision already warout. I've only been playing with it for a month, I don't recommend buying it and I won't buy it again.

My 9 year old son wore these NB boots for half a season (10 games) and the cleats are almost gone. Very disappointed in $90 boots!

We've had these sneakers for a little over a month. Even throughout the little league season, as the boots have already started to wear down, you can actually see the gap in real boots. Nowhere near the price tag!

Bought these for my husband who has very wide feet. He usually wears size 9 extra wide New Balance shoes and they fit well. He said they were a bit narrow compared to his regular shoes, but he needed molded cleats to play softball in his Over 65 softball league. Wide-leg baseball shoes are hard to come by, so he keeps them.

I ordered them because I bought Under Armor spikes and they were too tight in the toe area. Fits perfectly on my wide foot. I scaled up my regular shoes and it was perfect. I usually wear size 14 men's sneakers, but I'm a size 15. New Balance is always suitable for people with wide feet. That's probably why most of my New Balance shoes.

Doesn't affect the performance of the shoe but the New Balance badges on both tongues fell off on day one on the field other than that it's a great shoe.

Great shoes. The 14-year-old has been wearing the same boots in different colors depending on the team for several years. As expected. The size was right.

My son likes them very much. The only problem is that it's more difficult to get dirt off the insole and back into the shoe than on previous NB boots.

My son is 10 and plays in the minor league. Field time is about 2.5 hours, 3 times a week. In the 3rd week of use it started to slip while playing. His boots were inspected and to my surprise the boots had come down to the tips of his toes. His old pair of boots were worn for 3 months before wearing down to the same point. Same make, size and model. The only difference was the color. What could have caused this defect?

I have an irritated nerve in my foot (Morton's neuroma) and I can play softball in these shoes. I wish the next width was available, but you can't find these damn things online or in retail stores. I'm lucky with the pair I have but I can't find a wider pair or even another pair of the same shoes. The softball guys asked where they could get them, so I told them this story. Nobody could find her. I'm on several NB sites on Facebook and no one is responding. What the heck is New Balance…

I've been waiting for my son to reach size 5 so he can start wearing these boots. We have two pairs of five and five and a half and they do not disappoint. He has some sensory issues with his feet so he needs comfortable cleats and the tips of those toes offer some flexibility. I wish they were more available at Revain. Always sold out.

My 10 year old son wore these boots in a spring season and the soft ends of some boots have already worn down to hard molded plastic. I even let him walk on the lawn when he had boots on. I expect more from this brand and more from shoes in this price range.

Bought these for my 15 year old son and he loves them. Says they are even more comfortable than some of his other NB boots and loves the way they look!

Plastic molded boots are too soft. As I walk, I can feel the sculpted lugs moving and moving apart. When I spin or push off, the spikes feel unstable. Maybe I have a defective pair. I don't know. The look and fit of the shoe are great.

There is nothing comfortable about these shoes. I have narrow, long feet, but I still felt like I had ZERO space on either side of my feet. I felt like walking on the sides of my shoes and constantly losing my balance. I actually tripped while walking in these shoes resulting in 2 broken ribs. I'm not kidding, it happened. It's not worth it. Don't buy these boots.
