Wrong color for men

Please note that the color shown in the main image will not match the color you will receive. It shows a blue boot with an orange one underneath, but you get a gray boot. I prefer to keep the shoes to myself as I don't really care about the color but it's definitely a bit disappointing to expect one and get the other. Just wanted to make sure it wouldn't bother anyone.

Pros
  • STABILITY WEB supports midfoot and reduces shoe weight
Cons
  • Available in white only

Second pair - perfect for X-Wide Feet

I have wide feet and struggle to find comfortable running shoes and have tried many brands. New Balance have always made good wide options, but I've been buying Asics for a couple of years and have found them to be better. Unfortunately, Asics changed their design and the toe box is too narrow even on the 4E. I switched to New Balance last year and now have two pairs of 880v8s in a size 11 4E and they are impressive; I also add my own OTC supplements. I ran a half marathon with it on December…

Pros
  • ABZORB midfoot cushioning provides exceptional cushioning
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

The 880 is a great neutral shoe.

The 880v8 is almost identical to the 880v7 (which I had 5 pairs of) so I returned this item. However, as a friend who runs in the 880 line, I can say that this is probably the best mid-cushioned neutral shoe that NB makes. IMO much better than the 1080 line.

Pros
  • C-CAP midsole provides cushioning and support where you need it
Cons
  • Nothing here
