Customer Reviews New Balance Vazee Pace v2

Best running shoe I've come across in a very long time. Super light but enough support and cushion for long runs (have done several 13-15 milers in these) - due to the light weight I feel super fast and agile. I've put close to 75 miles on these in a short time and they've held up very well on the road and in the rain. These are also a lower drop shoe, which is so much better for your foot health overall, and also has a wide toe box. Highly recommended.

Love these shoes, get tons of compliments. I usually size up a 1/2 size for sneakers but these ran really big in the toe area, so beware.

Loved the look of this shoe, but it definitely runs narrower and has a smaller toe box than my other pair of white NB Vazee's. Sorry to have to return them.

I love this shoe. After putting over 300 miles and completing two marathons in my first Vazee Pace, it was time for a new pair. These are the lightest, most comfortable shoes I've worn in quite some time.

I bought these shoes to run on the treadmill at Orangetheory Fitness. I have wide feet and I really do not like running but these have been great! They are wide so my feet do not hurt when I am done and cushioned so my knees do not hurt.

I use these shoes for boot camp and jogging. I like them so much I bought them in three different colors. It's hard to find shoes that fit my almost wide feet, and these are just wide enough for me.

These shoes are comfortable, but not extremely comfortable. The heal feels low, which bugs me. Hoping I just have to get used to them since they are different than my last pair of running shoes.

This shoe felt tight in the toe box. My small toe was sticking out through the flimsy material.

I have a WIDE foot and need an ample toe box. I also wanted a lighter weight shoe....this is PERFECT. The color is stunning, an a always, NB holds up well....been wearing Asics, but they feel "heavy"...

It's been at least 5-6 years since I last purchased sneakers, and they have definitely changed drastically in that time! I've been loyal to New Balance for about 20 years, and these are by far the best sneakers I've ever owned. They fit perfectly, felt broken in right out of the box, and are so lightweight that I barely even feel like I'm wearing sneakers. I haven't tested them running outdoors, but I use them daily for HIIT/body resistance type workouts and the elliptical. I can't say enough positive things about these sneakers...I did some research, and they were rated in the top 10 shoes for runners, and I completely see why! And on a more vain note, sneakers often make my size 9 feet look like boats (so I only wear them when absolutely necessary), but these make my feet look normal...and I'm kind of excited to wear them whenever and wherever (once sandal season is over, of course!). I highly recommend these, and I'm already hoping they don't discontinue this model before I need to buy my next pair.

I really liked the look of these, the color and design gave my foot the appearance of being slimmer and generally smaller which I loved. The downside, in my opinion, is that it had very little support. This shoe looks very similar to other new balances that I've purchased with loads of support but it seemed to be made with low quality materials and was very lightweight. I prefer a sturdier and more supportive shoe that will last longer. Just my thoughts. I ended up returning for those reasons. I ordered instead the New Balance Vazee Prism which I've had in the past and are fantastic for support and quality. For reference my size is 8.5 Wide (D). -- it was true to width at the toe but felt too narrow at the arch.

These shoes were just what I was looking for- a neutral shoe that fit my wider than most folks foot! They held up over many miles of running. Can't recommend them more highly!

I LOVE this shoe! I wear an 8.5-9 but I needed a 9.5 in these. Thank Goodness for Zappos. No problems returning the ones too small and I got the 9.5 as fast as lightening. I bought 2 pair and will be buying 2 more. I like rotating my shoes between runs.

I've been wearing Saucony Kinvaras for speed work and faster runs of up to 10 miles, but the new model is shorter. I wear a Women's size 12, so I don't have the option of sizing up. The NB Vazee Pace v2 is the perfect replacement. Very similar (if not better) light feel, and the size 12 is a real size 12. The Kinvara has more of a square toe box, but these still have plenty of room for my long toes. I've only been wearing them for 2 weeks, but the material also seems to be of better quality than the Kinvaras.

Perfect right out of the box. No breaking in needed.

Loved these. The toe box was wide enough. Shoe was comfortable right out of the box. Walked thru two busy airports fist day. Loved the color and style.

I am looking for a pair of shoes to replace the discontinued 890v3. I have 5 pair of those that I've been rotating and finally need to hunt for a replacement. This may be it. They feel light, comfortable and stable. I wear a 9 in the 890v3 but a 9 is too short in these. I tried the 9.5 & they fit great. For reference, my feet are a normal medium width & arch but somewhat thin & bony :) (I could get away with a narrow width sometimes but I can't wear a wide in any situation). These shoes are more snug than the 890v3 but that's comfortable to me. I'm not a runner but I rack up about 30-35 miles per week on my heavy morning walks. I'm going to try these for a week or so. If they're keepers I'll be buying the other colors to put in my rotation.

love these shoes and they looks so good that my 13 year old daughter said, "nice"!

Got as spare for pair I have now so haven't actually worn yet but think they are going to be great

I'm usually a Nike girl, but I decided to try these NB. Wow, they are super light and comfortable. Looking forward to testing them out on a run.

Perfect walking shoe. Very comfortable.

Very cute shoe; coral on the shoe is not too bright; tts

Love these shoes! Went 1/2 size up and it was the right move. Next time I might go a little wider. I have high arches and these feel good.
