Customer Reviews New Balance WX711

I've been buying a version of this shoe for the last several years, and they've been perfect for my home workouts. But something has changed - they have become really flimsy and there is very little support, very little cushion, and no stability. It's very disappointing and I won't buy them again.

I used to love 711 but last years version and this version are terrible. Last year's was too small and as I worked out my feet were hitting the toe. So, in this pair I bought an 8. At first they fit but after 2 workouts they are too big. My feet move around too much. Plus there is no arch support. After an hour workout my feet are killing me. I'm so disappointed to have wasted money on shoes that I cannot wear.

711 v3 shouldn't be given the privilege of being called a 711! I'm a huge fan of the 711... bought my first pair a while back. I've bought 5-6 more since then. When I saw these 711s on sale, I bought 2! I had no idea 711's had versions until these MONSTERS were delivered. They look like my trusted 711's but after my first run in them I came home, kicked them off and my husband asked if I had been attacked by an animal at the park because my heels were so badly cut up and bleeding. Surely I just had to break them in... tomorrow will be better I told myself. Lies! All lies! Despite bandage, ointments and TWO pairs of socks, the next run was not better. In fact, I was in so much pain I ran into the bushes, pulled out the padding from my bra and shoved them into the back of my heels to give me more cushion. It didn't help... it did make for an interesting run in this chilly December weather. I've never had so many men greet me during a run On the third day, I bought real cushions to go in the heels. Yep, still painful. I've given up. I have a brand new grey pair and a slightly worn, black pair with bloody heels if anyone wants them. Way to ruin a perfectly good shoe New Balance!

Absolutely no arch support what so ever!!! Sole is soft but flat. Will never order on line again!

Returned product. Although, I ordered a D width, the fabric did not reach the shoe tongue. It was so strange, as if the sole was D width but the fabric was short of width.
