🏃 Optimized for Search: New Balance FuelCell Running Medium Men's Athletic Shoes Review

A little tight, but not annoying for short distances (5-6 km). I used to be a shoe minimalist, but one day I tried these. Doesn't matter! Comfort is second to none! I feel like I'm wasting less energy and covering more territory with this solid support. I can't believe I've waited so long. I will definitely come again. I normally run 9 miles a week and now I feel a lot better in these shoes.

I was determined to buy these shoes after trying them on at the mall and couldn't find my size anywhere but Amazon. Got them in 1 day. I wore them to work with socks and the shoes were irritating my ankles so I had to run home and put on long socks. I thought it would help but it wasn't a very comfortable shoe but it tore the back of my ankles! I need to find something to protect the boot from so much friction.

I really liked the simplicity and comfort of these shoes. The first few days of wearing the heel rubbed more than other shoes, but over time it softened and now I walk in this shoe every day. I walk a lot every day and drive my son around the house and they are comfortable for everything I have needed from them so far. Let's see how the trip goes in the spring.

I have just returned from a year abroad for work and needed a new pair of great running shoes. I did my research and found this New Balance to be highly rated. I ordered it from Revain and when it arrived I tried it on and it was a big disappointment. Sizing is wrong as it was too loose and felt a size and a half bigger than what I've worn for the past few years. I understand that these shoes are made in different countries and as such it is known that inconsistencies in workmanship and sizing…

Fantastic comfort. Like a well-tailored slipper. Very flexible, feels light (though not crazy on the scales) and breathable. Ground contact feel is MUCH better with the Hokas, which makes sense given the reduced stack height. I would say the improved ground feel encourages me to stay on my toes/midfoot and avoid heel strikes. As other commenters have mentioned, the heel cup rises up at the back so those wearing half socks may experience Achilles chafing. It seems that many brands have…

insole cushioned no more than a piece of cardboard in every way. I had to buy insoles to keep my knee from hurting while running on the treadmill.

I was training for a half marathon and ran exclusively in ASIC Kayanos. I wanted a second boot to be able to rotate them. I saw them on a shoe visor and they supposedly looked like a kayano. Paid about $59 for the white and yellow and just gave them the first run. 5 miles. Felt good. I felt like they had less cushioning and less stability than I was used to, but to be honest I have no complaints. Especially for the price.

Three stars based on my personal comfort. They may work well for others as they are exactly as described. Stylish and comfortable to walk in, but I find walking in them uncomfortable. The fit of the foot in the shoe increases impact and irritates the shins.

These shoes look great. They fit as expected and are very comfortable. There's only one problem, and it's a big one - the collar above the ankle digs into the back of the leg. I received the shoes yesterday and walked 4 miles. It was one of the worst running experiences of my life. The pain prevented me from distracting myself from my errands. I was bleeding and now I'm in pain due to the strange gait I had to take to relieve the pain. I will buy thicker socks to see if they work. Overall, I'm…
