New Balance

Fresh Foam X 1080v14

Women's

These shoes are very cushioned, but dangerous. I have trouble standing up when wearing these. It’s like trying to stand on a ball. I often fall back onto whatever I was sitting on. Yesterday I was sitting on a chair, tipped backwards, knocked the chair over, fell on it, and cracked the chair back. Once standing, I’m okay, because I actually have a good sense of balance. But, walking in these is taxing. I thought the cushioning would help, but it’s like walking on sand. Your calf muscles work harder than you should walking on a sidewalk. I hoped that maybe the cushion was in the insole and I could buy an insole that was more stabilizing. However, the insole is thin. The cushioning is built in. Until yesterday’s fall, I planned to tough it out, but given the damage done to my dining room chair and the potential of getting seriously injured, I’m going to have to buy a different shoe. But standing still? So comfortable.

WHY WHY WHY do they continue to mess up a good thing. ?? Ive been buying 1080's since 1080v8. Which was a pretty amazing sneaker as was the V10. Since then they have made changes that just ruin it. SO SO SO disappointing. Will be returning the v14.

They felt true to size and width. Seemed comfortable, thought I'd keep them...but after wearing them in the house for about 30mins., my toes started to go to sleep. Not sure why? Sadly, I'll Return them .

These are the best athletic shoes I have ever worn and I am very picky. They are MUCH better than the v 13. These have far more stability. In fact, I find them to be more stable than my athletic shoes that are supposed to be stability shoes. They are cushiony, but not too much. I highly recommend them.

These are always the most comfortable shoes!!! We’ll worth the extra money!
