I order this and a pair of Adidas Kanadia TR 2 trail running shoes for an upcoming race. I planned on keeping both, using one for casual and one for racing. These feel like great, supportive shoe, but I am going to be using these as my casual shoes because the styling on them is just great. Love the plastic mesh to protect the toe mixed with a breathable upper trimmed with suede. Plus the black, gray, and red look fantastic.

A solid shoe. The construction is good. I love the orange detailing. True to size. I would say that it\'s not a proper running shoe, per se, as the cushioning is a little light, however, I still run in these anyway. As for style, you will make the final judgement, but I happen to find these to be particularly dope. I\'ve gotten used to wearing them around town for comfort reasons, and they look good with jeans, fo sho.

Yes, I am very happy with these shoes. They are very light, they appear to be well built to give me a long shoe life, and the fit is superb. They are very comfortable right outta the box! One note, if you live in a colder climate these shoes provide no protection from cold air. Overall, these are excellent shoes and of course Zappos makes it happen!

I'm on at least my 8th pair of NB shoes. I've had these for a month or two and wear them about 2 to 3 days/week. Love these shoes. I love the color, fit, and comfort. They're surprisingly light, too. I originally bought some expensive Asics, but they hit the back of my ankle to high up making them uncomfortable. My only complaint is the tread is so wide that on hard surfaces they make noise. It reminds me of a truck with big off-road tires driving on the street. Other than that, I suspect these will get me looking for another pair of NB shoes once I wear through them.

I've used Zappos multiple times now and have had to return multiple shoes. The shipping is always free & selection of shoes is great! I would be hard pressed to find these good New Balance running shoes locally.

I ordered these shoes for my husband for work and play. They have a rugged bottom, sleek look, and the chocolate brown with orange bottom is nice and vivid. He said they don't have a lot of arch support, but he's pretty flat footed so it's not a big deal. He has a narrower foot and loves the fit and they look great with jeans. I ordered them with my baby's booties at 12pm got them at 5pm the next day. These are awesome, Zappos!
