Review on πŸƒ Experience Optimal Trail Running Performance with New Balance Men's Fresh Foam Arishi V1 Trail Running Shoe by Jeff Clites

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Mid-top sneakers. No super supportive cushioning.

I'm not a runner but as I'm more active I decided to get a pair of durable golf and walking shoes for everyday wear so I wouldn't wear out my running shoes. First. These are not spongy. The low weight is clearly noticeable. They are mesh and more of a canvas material on the foot but have toe protection which I like. The shoes are more suitable for everyday use or walking/jogging. I haven't fully broken them in, but they just don't have the support and cushioning that the more expensive shoes from New Balance, Brooks, Hoka, etc. offer. I will use them as a casual shoe and maybe for golf. I wouldn't bet money on their durability, but at $40 and a very wide width (I'd go a long way if you usually wear wide ones), it's hard to beat. I agree with most reviewers that they lack support and cushioning, but if you want regular running shoes or just shoes that look good, grab an insole from the store and stick your paw in this suction cup.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Some maintenance needed
