Runs small
By DARCAVerified Purchaser from California on 6/2/2008
Sizing:
Feels full size too small
Width:
Feels true to width
Pros:
Lightweight
Cons:
Not much arch support
Best Uses:
Good for easy walking
Describe Yourself:
Gym Rat
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I was surprised that this shoe doesn't have more arch support - it's very light weight which is nice, but not much cushioning for a running shoe. I'll be using it for just running errands around town, not workouts. It definitely runs small - order a full size larger.

I bought these for a trip to Miami after recovering from having fractured my ankle in 2 places. My doctor had me in running sneakers as part of my rehab. These are extremely comfortable, lightweight and supported my foot wonderfully. Not to mention how cool they look. I got lots of compliments on them!

I wear this shoe to work everyday and its the most comfortable shoe I own, I work 12 hour plus shifts at the hospital an I have several pairs of work shoes but these are the best. The traction is awesome no slipping. Ican't say anything negative about these shoe's other than I wish they came in a true brown color.

For an athletic mesh shoe, I have found this model to be fashionable (most New Balance shoes are anything but) and as comfortable as good moccasins, but with the added benefit of good support. If I'm not barefoot or in slip-ons, I'm wearing these! They're great.

Comfortable, Good Traction, Low Profile
Best Uses:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

These are the perfect travel shoe. They are extremely light weight and easy to pack. Very comfortable. I wore them all around Europe for seven or eight hours at a time and my feet never hurt. The brown/white color goes well with both brown and black (the brown is a gray brown so it matches just about everything). These are also very low profile so you don't feel like you are wearing a chunky athletic shoe. I wear my pair with everything from work out clothes to cute jeans.
