Customer Reviews New Balance Ellipse V1

The Ellipse v1 is true to size, meaning my usual half size up for athletic shoes is perfect. I tried both Wide and X-Wide, since other NB styles are narrower now. The Wide was marginally wide enough, so I stayed with the X-Wide for thicker socks. The cushion in these feels similar to the 1080, very bouncy/springy, but more stable than the 1080.

Material feels good, flexible but toe box too narrow.

I'm very happy with the Ellipse. I can feel the neutral soft cushion out of the box. I like the old Fuel Cell versions, but the new ones feel strange. So glad NB has a new option!

Nice new model! I was looking for an everyday walk around shoe, versus the Fuel cell Rebel which I run in. Compared to the Rebel, it's slightly wider mid-sole and NOT a rocker sole -- yay to both! Still very light weight. This fits in smaller size than the Rebel which runs extra small, so order your normal NB size (which is bigger than I get in other shoes: normally 5.5-6, NB 6.5 to 7, this fit in 6.5, need 7 in Rebel). The purple pops.

Great. Love them

These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I have worn. I am a 77 year old woman with a neuroma and aging feet that require support, Cushion and toe box width. Ellipse V1 provides all of these things. This is my second pair and they are also stylish! These shoes are true to size and accommodate my orthotics.

Very comfortable. Nice selection of colors. Fit true. Cushioning is unbelievable — makes my old knees happy

These are perfect. I love New Balance sneakers for their wide toe bed and great support. My knee hurt when I wore a narrower sneaker. Feels great in these.

This is the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I have a neuroma that is very happy in the Ellipse V1. I have a narrow foot and the sizing is true with no squeezing of toes. My orthotics fit perfectly and the foam is like walking on pillows. The purple is beautiful and the shoe is attractive for any occasion.

These shoes fit well and are supportive. I am enjoying the new color choice

These running shoes are perfect. I will definitely buy another pair.

Like walking on clouds. And believe me, I'm hard to please!

It was mostly comfortable overall, it’s just that in the back area of the heel it dipped down in an obvious way and I think that would eventually bother me and my ankles. If I’m going to pay $150 for shoes they better fit just right. These were pretty good. Not great.
