Review on ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ High-performance Women's Athletic Trail Running Shoes by New Balance by James Handy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Far not as wide, narrow at top of foot

I bought these thinking that with their thick foam heel they would work for my job of walking on concrete all day. I tried them on after work (and shower :x) to get the most realistic impression of tired legs possible. I bought 7W and 7.5W to make sure I got the right size. Unfortunately the 7Ws were too narrow and probably too short as I could see the full shape of my foot through the mesh. The 7.5 watts went through the toe better but was too tight at the top of the foot. I have a high arch and the arch support in the insole was too small within the arch to feel it. I only noticed this when I took out the insole to check. If you think you're going to put your own insole, the one that comes with it is very thin. Even if you take them out, your replacement must also be very thin to leave room for your foot. I wish this would work. The price was right, but I would have had an agonizing day at work.
