Great light shoes! - my new rating

I am very happy with my new running shoes. Lightweight, easy to put on and take off, ideal for a few short runs and walks during the week.

Pros
  • It's clear !! Pleases !! love their beautifully made shoes
Cons
  • Shoes may not be suitable for long-distance running.

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Lighter and better than older models NB 991-993.

I used to use NB 991-993. I bought a pair of Nike running shoes a few years ago and suddenly developed planter fasciitis. To solve this problem I bought a pair of Hoka shoes and they looked ridiculous. I bought these NB free foams and they are just as strong as the 991s but much lighter.

Pros
  • Shoes are light and fit well
Cons
  • 20 days in them was done

These are great shoes!

These are really great running shoes. Extremely light yet very supportive with some of the best cushioning. I also bought New Balance Men's Propel V1 FuelCell Running Shoes but they are much better and worth the price difference.

Pros
  • These are husbands favorites. He has two pairs. He says he can sleep in these shoes because they are so comfortable!
Cons
  • Shoes may not be durable enough for everyday use.

Starts great, rubber capsules are not durable.

They started off great, cheerful and responsive. High weight for high stacking height without the feeling of a heavy floor. Instead of a full-length rubber outsole, multiple rubber pods have been used for traction in high-wear areas. Within two months one of these pods had already cracked and flaked off. Pretty disappointing. Without it it would be 5 stars

Pros
  • 4. Pair of lighthouses. I go to daily trainers.
Cons
  • The shoes may be too heavy for some runners.

God gave these shoes to the world!

Absolutely the best shoes I've ever had! I sell cars so I walk over 10 miles a day; These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I have ever had. My legs don't hurt when I get home. I love her.

Pros
  • Fits as expected. Very comfortable to walk.
Cons
  • Shoes can be difficult to put on

Light and comfortable

I stopped running for a long time because I kept hurting myself. So I was a bit nervous about buying shoes without trying them on first. But this couple is perfect. The last pair I bought from a specialty store left me with plantar fasciitis. This pair leaves my legs unshakable after a run I've been on. I've run a few marathons in the past so I'm not new to running and running shoes. I'm glad I tried it because now I've finally found the right shoe to go back to every few hundred miles.

Pros
  • Very light and comfortable for easy runs and tempo days.
Cons
  • Shoes may not be stable enough for cross-country running.

Delivery took 10 days. . . .

The size is a little smaller than expected. To be on the safe side, order half a size larger. Stylish and good looking. I'll take them for a run and post and update soon. 1 star deduction due to long delivery time.

Pros
  • Lightweight and great cushioning.
Cons
  • Thin insole and was so uncomfortable for my flasitis planters and I would never recommend it

I'm not sure if this shoe is suitable for overpronated feet.

The shoes are very comfortable and light. However, and this could be my fault, I figured I buy shoes that fit more feet than straight pronation. I have noticed that my shoes look pulled up because my legs are bent inwards. This happened earlier with this shoe than most shoes I buy. Overall I am satisfied with the shoes.

Pros
  • I love her. Pleasantly light and durable.
Cons
  • Shoes may not have enough arch support for people with high arches.

Lightweight but can take a hit!

It was a replacement for my husband's running shoes which he had worn hiking heavily for 4 years until his feet started to hurt. He walked 4 miles the first day and reported that his legs felt great afterwards!

Pros
  • The best sneakers I've ever used
Cons
  • Shoes can have an unpleasant smell

son loves her. - my new rating

Bought for my 14 year old son, I want one for myself! These are the lightest running shoes I've ever tried. They also look even better than the pictures and didn't need to be broken in. They were comfortable for him from the first time he put them on. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • love her
Cons
  • The tread wear is already noticeable after 2 rides. Most likely useless after 100 km.

care .... the best in my rating

I'm a nurse and these are BIG nursing shoes. It makes 13-hour shifts on your feet all night a little easier. You have a rebound. I have wide ones and they are perfect.

Pros
  • They are super light! I wear them for tempo runs.
Cons
  • Outsole wears out quickly

Hateful Politics NB

I had it for Christmas and then I read about New Balance's misguided and hateful policy - thank god I canceled the order before my son accidentally walked around with that hate badge.

Pros
  • Light shoes with great support!
Cons
  • Shoes may not have adequate grip on slippery surfaces.

Buy it! Super comfortable

Love it. Expensive but worth it. I walk in these all the time. I will definitely buy another pair in the future. Highly recommended!

Pros
  • Lots of jumps and almost propels you forward. Looking for another pair in a different color.
Cons
  • Seams can cause blisters on shoes.

The best shoes I've had in a long time

I'm a tall guy, 280 pounds. I bought these because I have started running a lot, they are so light and very comfortable that I have bought 3 pairs for running and they are by far the best.

Pros
  • It fits me perfectly, I wear 9-9 1/2 for women and 8 for men. The most comfortable shoes I've ever bought.
Cons
  • The shoes can be too hot for running in summer.

Recommend them in my review.

Excellent quality shoes. I run about 325 miles before my pants wear out. They are really comfortable and light. I had at least 5 pairs of beacons of different colors. Hopefully they don't get hired.

Pros
  • my son absolutely loves them
Cons
  • Shoes may not have adequate cushioning in the heel area.

Not permanently good for me

After 2.5 months of running and over 100 miles of running, the upper separated from the sole leaving a hole near the big toe. I liked the shoes up to this point, but durability was definitely an issue. I've never had that with any other shoe.

Pros
  • Great shoes
Cons
  • Some runners may find the shoe clunky.

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent running shoes.

There was also other support than me. But it was a great run and by the end I felt like it was as good as my $300 running shoes.

Pros
  • How do these shoes fit, would I buy again
Cons
  • The shoes may not have enough room for toes.

Comfortable shoes at a good price

This New Balance show is pretty handy. Although it's wide, it's a little tight, but because it's so light I suspect it will stretch a bit. Wears well, looks neat.

Pros
  • My favorite sneakers 2019-2020
Cons
  • Shoes may be too narrow for wide feet.

Very comfortable shoes

I love the look of this shoe. The heel is snug and the fabric is very flexible and dense. I like them so much that I would buy another pair. Only the price has gone up since I bought the first pair.

Pros
  • Great running shoes
Cons
  • Shoes can be too tight in the midfoot area.

Poor durability: my rating

Comfort is great, unfortunately the lightweight construction loses a lot of durability. I bought them at the end of April, they have only been running for 4 months.

Pros
  • Super comfortable and light! Very stylish and wonderful product! Very happy with this purchase!!!!
Cons
  • Shoes may not have enough flexibility
