Tip loop broke on second day

Sometimes a shoe has a fault, but during racing season you can't afford the week it takes to return and replace racing shoes. The lace loop on this shoe broke the second time I wore it. Unfortunately, Best Buy no longer stocks the same size, so we have to repair the shoes ourselves.

Pros
  • Didn't know it had spikes but great shoes
Cons
  • The shoes are designed for narrow feet which may not be suitable for people with wide feet.

does not correspond to the size in my review

My son wears size 6.5 shoes and had to order a size 8.0 to barely fit him. Never had this problem with other brands of shoes. New Balance shoes are usually taller and wider so I'm very disappointed with them. I had to order 3 different sets to find the right one.

Pros
  • My son is serious about cross country and the shoe offers better support than any of his previous spikes.
Cons
  • Poor Durability: Shoes are not very durable and may not last very long with regular wear.

Don't coach for every day

I had to buy a size up and it fit well. Works well for stickiness and rough terrain. Poor insole support so not a shoe for long distance training. I will only use it for racing.

Pros
  • You are a bit small. I had to order half a size bigger. But they are super pretty.
Cons
  • The shoe lacks adequate cushioning, which can lead to discomfort and pain in the feet on long runs.

Great for high school cross country runners.

They were for my son and they were better than the Saucony I bought that same year for double the price. He said they were softer and fitter and felt better.

Pros
  • The New Balance Cross Country 5K V5 Men's Running Shoe is designed to provide excellent traction and support while trail running, making it the perfect shoe for trail running.
Cons
  • Not suitable for every terrain

Order at least 1 size larger

We ordered men's size 11 but they fit like women's size 11, not like men's. Order at least one full size larger than your usual men's/unisex size. We're coming back to get 12.5, although we usually wear 11-inch cleats. I will update the rating after I get 12.5.

Pros
  • My son loves these trail running shoes. Lightweight, fits well.
Cons
  • Limited Color Options: The New Balance Cross Country 5K V5 Men's Running Shoe, Supercell/Sulphur Yellow, 7.5 M US is only available in one colorway and may not suit every style.

Ideal for high school cross country runners.

These were for my son and they were better than the Saucony I bought that same year for twice the price. He said they were softer and fitter and felt better.

Pros
  • Men
Cons
  • There are cons
