Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Thistle Women's New Balance Running Shoes - Women's Shoes by Carol Merkley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Nice shoes, but are they fake?

Nice design but it takes me a while to get used to the shape of the shoe itself. Maybe I'm a harsh critic, but the tongue on the back of the shoe that you put it on with has already popped out (literally on day one, for $80 shoes - hooray! That's one of the reasons why the review below is ). This also suggests that these may be fake or not genuine New Balance sneakers. Are they usually made better? Like many others who have commented, the shoe is quite snug so definitely go half a size up. My feet are narrow and I increased them by 1/2 size, in some places the shoes are tight. But you can adjust the laces. Please note that the tongue slips in the show somehow, so I think a lot of people recommend going up a size as the laces can only loosen them.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Good but not great
