Craft that PR from the ground up. Train hard, fly light in the Distance from Newton®.

Adaptation Period:
Adjusting to Newton running shoes will depend upon several factors including: your current running shoes, your running form, gait efficiency, as well as your speed and flexibility. Those new to natural running form or those transitioning from a shoe with traditional cushioning will benefit from spending adequate time adjusting. This is because your body will need time to lengthen the muscles and tendons on the back of the leg and under the foot.
Newton recommends first-timers walk in their shoes for several days to become accustomed to the level platform. Walking barefoot on safe and comfortable surfaces can also be helpful. Once ready, begin by introducing short runs of no longer than 15 minutes every other day. Gradually add 10-15 minutes as your feet and leg muscles begin to strengthen. If you experience soreness that persists for more than two days, reduce time in shoes immediately. Rest and ice the area until the soreness subsides, then slowly begin introducing time in shoes again.

These shoes are great! Comfortable and are perfect for running helping you run more efficiently. I took up the recommendation to go a half size up. Great choice!

This is my 4th pair of Newtons. I love these shoes! They are lightweight and help you land on your mid foot instead of your heel. My favorite running shoe.

I didn't start running until I was into my 30's, and really did not know much about it when I started. After running a few half marathons, some friends suggested I dress more like a "real" runner, starting with my shoes. They highly recommended Newton's so I read a bunch of reviews on Zappos and decided to order a 1/2 size larger than I usually wear in a running shoe. They fit perfectly, and I love the way they feel when I run. They're lightweight and have a nice roll to them. Plus the colors are kicka$$. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Instantly ran faster with shorter strides. Helps if you want to try and focus on steps per minute, all of this, in turn, prevents injury - all around, I will never run in another brand ever again.

Please note, these seem to run a full size smaller. I checked their website and it may be that after you get used to the design they are more true to size, but while you are making the transition from regular running shoes you might want to order a full size larger. So I returned them, ordered a new pair a full size up, and it's working out!

I was really excited to start running with my Newtons, but it's been a couple of weeks and I don't think I'm in love. I'm a mid-foot runner and I usually wear 7 1/2 but I got a size 8 for swelling allowance. Maybe sizing up was my mistake because they are too sloppy and I got blisters running hills. The rubber is pretty hard on the sole = very little shock absorption. I really wanted them to be perfect and I find them...well, kind of cheaply made for the price. I've moved on to Hoka one one, maybe I can love them.
