I had a flare of plantar fasciitis earlier this summer. Although the pain has largely subsided, it's very important for me to find comfortable shoes in order to go on long walks, which is my main form of exercise. The 1200s are very light, comfortable, supportive, and provide great cushioning. The Walking Strike Path is very good at correcting my gait. After wearing them for a week, I can feel the way I place my foot in each step and how I roll it to connect to the next step is subtly changing. My steps are more comfortable and effortless. I think this is the Walking Strike Path feature working. Since I've only had it for a short time, I cannot comment on their durability. But the outer soles have worn less than I expected. The only downside of the shoes is that I wish there were more cushioning in the forefeet area. But then the 1200 is marketed as performance walking shoes, so weight might be a concern.

Nice walking shoes. Overall, nice looking pair of walking shoes, but these NB shoes are not made in USA (which is what I thought was the case with all NB shoes and a part of the decision to buy NB). Still good shoes.

New Balance began as a Boston-based arch support company in the early 1900s, developed into a specialized manufacturer of shoes in the 1970s, and has grown to become a leading global athletic products company. Today New Balance is a family of brands including New Balance, Dunham, PF Flyers, Aravon, Warrior and Brine.
Since the days of selling arch supports to police officers and waiters, New Balance has been a brand concerned with meeting the needs of the everyday athlete. In pursuing this goal, they developed an "Endorsed By No One" philosophy, which holds that a superior product will sell itself better than any superstar athlete ever could. Part of producing New Balance shoes and athletic clothing is manufacturing it to fit all widths and sizes, because a better fit produces better performance.
To ensure the best fitting, best performing shoes and clothes, New Balance focuses on improving their technology and production methods.
