Review on New Balance FuelCore Champagne Metallic Women's Shoes by Sharon Mitchell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good shoes for every day, not for competitive racing.

I bought these on the recommendation of a New Balance sales representative as a good all round road shoe. I generally found them comfortable for daily activities, but I definitely wouldn't recommend them for serious runners. Pros: I can comfortably run 3 miles on a treadmill, they're easy to put on and get going, they have a wide toe box so my toes can splay, and they're stylish. Cons: The outsole lacks traction and the boot itself slides down my foot which actually puts a strain on my foot muscles when running outdoors. They lack arch support and are uncomfortable for long runs over 5K. I would say this is an acceptable shoe for my everyday needs or light use in the gym but not for running and certainly not for competition.

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Mostly good but...
