Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam X Hierro v9 GORE-TEX®

These are fabulous! Bought for a trip to Alaska based on the fact they claimed to be waterproof. They are so waterproof!! First three days in Alaska it POURED rain and my feet stayed perfectly dry! Walking through mud and puddles my feet were comfortable at the end of a 12 hour rainy day.

This was actually a very nice show, but ironically, too cushiony for my very wobbly ankles. Those ankles tend to roll, resulting in falling while walking, spo the shoes needed to go back. Not a problem with the product.

The shoe is very supportive and I like the traction at the base. My body feels less fatigued, but I did have to put in extra art support. It was worth the purchase. I work in the operating room and I stand for hours. Get them, they are also great for running and hiking.

These have been keeping my feet dry and comfy on my dewy morning trail runs! If you plan to wear thicker socks with them, I'd order a 1/2 size up.

The fit is off on the forefoot but the back half of shoe fits. I ordered a 10.5 because the 10 was too small. Not happy with this shoe but it does have a nice Vibram sole and cushioned heel. New Balance needs to improve the design. I’m going back to Hoka.

Too small, too narrow!
