uncomfortable
By walkerVerified Purchaser from columbus oh on 4/14/2008
Pros:
Lightweight
Cons:
Uncomfortable
Describe Yourself:
Competitive Athlete
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I usually love NB shoes. I thought this one would be extra special as it is recommended by Oprah magazine. But wrong, wrong, wrong. These are the worst fitting uncomfortable shoes I have ever gotten by NB. The padding in the top back heel area is annoying. Very disappointed in this shoe.

Having seen this shoe advertised positively in some magazine, I'd spent about a year trying to find it including calling everywhere in the country. [...] got one of the best pair of shoes I've ever owned!! They are great for the gym and good weather outdoors for breathability! Clearly, they were worth the wait in time and weight in gold!!!

My feet sweat a lot when I exercise. I was looking for a sneaker that had mesh but would not be flimsy. This New Balance shoe is just that. I do walk aerobics everyday and I must say that these have been great! My feet are much cooler than with other sneakers I've worn in the past. I would recommend these sneakers for anyone looking for stabitily and comfort while exercising.

This is a wonderful shoe and I have three pair in different colors. I bought this same shoe and had it sent to my aunt for her birthday and she said it was very attractive and comfortable. I also recommended this shoe to my daughter who bought a pair and she wears them to work at the hospital. I have problems with my feet including bunions and hammer toes and this shoe is one of the few that I can wear for a long period of time without any pain. I washed the oldest pair and they looked like new. I now cooridinate my clothes with the different colors of the three pairs of shoes. In fact, I hope more colors come out in the future and I hope this model continues to be produced.

This shoe is comfortable and attractive. It's only drawback is that the mesh gets gray and dirty after a while. The mesh is cool, though, as advertised.

water soaks right through
Best Uses:

Describe Yourself:

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

this is actually one of the few comfortable pair of sneakers i have found. It allows good air flow, which i do need since i'm on my feet all the time. And when you live and work in New York City you need some good soles to walk on. The only thing is do not get caught with these on in the rain. It has good material for great airflow, unfortunately it also lets in water. Can't win it all.
