Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Superior Performance in New Balance Women's 1400 V1 Trail Walking Boot by Kelly Slevira

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The soles are gone! good for outdoor activities

It has been almost a year since I bought these shoes, although in total they are probably not worn for more than 100 hours. For the first two months, the sole of the right boot lagged behind the inside of the boot. I fixed it with Industrial Glue E6000 which held up well. Shortly after, the outside of the same shoe fell off and I did the same repair. Yesterday I repaired the left boot as the entire front of the shoe has come off the sole. The weird thing is that upon closer inspection I didn't find any traces of glue in the construction - so how are the soles attached to the boots? All this to say that apart from my disappointment that the outsole came off, the shoes were otherwise great and initially I was pleased with the purchase. I have also been a loyal NEW BALANCE customer for many years and have never complained about it. (Without seeing other comments on this issue, I'm guessing this particular purchase was a lemon).

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • retrofittable
