Review on πŸƒ Revitalize Your Running Performance with New Balance Women's Thunder Athletic Shoes by Geoffrey Graham

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great sole, a bit loose

I switched to this model from my old version 9 shoes, I thought they looked a little better than version 10. The sole feels like walking on air , even more than my shoe version 9, but the width and length seem a bit loose. I wear a women's size 11 and sometimes manufacturers make ALL sizes larger than the size above instead of just making them longer and shifting the arch accordingly. Again, the outsole feels mechanically right, this upper is wider than usual and you can only pull the laces so tight before distorting the shape. My toes are off balance on the inside, which is fine, I'm not worried about tripping, but I'm working on finding the right lace tightening to eliminate any slippage. It's only been a week so far. I think it's advisable to order 1/2 size smaller. I will when it's time for a replacement in about 6 months :)
