Running shoe why look for others when u have most incredible NB for you arch support needing feet😉
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The New Balance Fresh Foams have become my favorite running shoe. I love how the shoe secures my foot and leaves room in the toe area for when my foot expands on long runs. The shoes are very comfortable due to the cushioning inidsole. I use these sneakers for both my runs and workouts.
I was very excited for these shoes to be delivered because I heard nice things about New Balance brand. But unfortunately it was nothing as expected, they were very uncomfortable. Did not like it. The sole is too hard.
This is my second pair of New Balance fresh foam, and I’m absolutely loving the Permafrost colour. The most comfortable pairs of shoes I’ve ever bought. Floating on a cloud. Best money I’ve ever spent!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this shoe, as a marathon runner it's nice to switch up the style I'm using. My go to is the Fresh Foam 1080, I found that the 880 has that same thick platform that I like but it's slightly less cushiony than the 1080s and because of this it was a little less springy. I found this shoe to also be slightly wider than what I'm used to. This shoe seems to be sturdier than some of my other sneakers and have kept their form pretty well so far! I also love the look of the high platform!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am usually a diehard Brooks girly, but I took these out for a spin and was pleasantly surprised. They are lightweight, yet surprisingly supportive, and make cruising through easy miles a breeze. I'm also a physical therapist and am on my feet most of the day, so I love wearing these shoes to work as they are much more stylish than my other sneakers and keep my feet happy and supported throughout the day. They have a 6mm drop so if you are wearing a more neutral shoe, that's just an important thing to note. I overall am happy with these and will keep them in the rotation for runs when I need a little boost.
I spent a long time looking for the right sneakers, and I’m very happy with this purchase. I have plantar fasciitis and significant heel pain, so comfort and support are really important to me. These sneakers are perfect for walking and everyday use. I also specifically wanted a wide toe box because I wear Happy Feet toe socks, and these give my toes plenty of room without feeling bulky. Overall, a great choice for everyday wear. If you’re looking for something that is not only functional and comfortable but also stylish and truly white, these are a perfect option. They feel great and look beautiful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've worn these on a few runs ranging from 3-6 miles and was pleasantly surprised! Given the heel, they look super cushioned, but I found them a bit more structured and sturdy than I anticipated, i.e., they didn't have as much 'bounce' as I expected. I found them very supportive and will definitely keep them in the rotation for runs up to ~10 miles. Excited to try them on some longer distances too!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are my first pair of NBs and I was NOT disappointed! Took no time to break them in and I like the level of cushioning - pretty bouncy, but not superrr thick. They fit true-to-size - I’m a 9.5 in most shoes and the 9.5 fit great. I did two short runs in them before racing a half marathon and they felt awesome!!
New balance are just superior! I always come back to new balance, and this time I'm not leaving, I'll always buy new balance. I have back problems and I'm pregnant with baby number 5 and they are the only shoes that support me being on my feet all day every day. I love the wide option!
