Luv luv these shoes! My 3 rd pair and there hands down the most comfortable footwear I've ever owned. I generally as a rule take a size 12 however my recent size 12 order was to tight around the sides. Length was good but needed more room so I returned and ordered a 13

Perfect shoes for me just walking around or running the trails in the Arizona desert..... not the road. I’m so bummed it’s nearly impossible to find them anymore because they are discontinued. New Balance.... keep making them... not everyone are destroying their feet!

I ran my last pair of Minimus into the ground, and when it came to replacing them it was a no-brainer. Love the shoes!

I now own three pair of these shoes. Mostly wear them at the gym, sometimes for some light hiking. They are the best at what they do - minimalist sneakers but solid enough to take a beating. I wear them without socks, and find they fit true to size. If you wear socks, you might consider a half size up. Please, New Balance, keep making these and don't discontinue them again!

I bought these in men's as there were no women's sizes left. They are more comfortable and lots of toe box space. Super cute and I just wish they would continue making them. Apparently they are not making this line anymore.
I also bought a pair for my daughter and she loves them as well. They seem a little stiffer than the ladies.

I have 3 different pairs of these. They are by far my favorite shoes. If you’re going to be standing for long periods on hard floors, these are not the shoes for you. For training, light trail running/ hiking & leisure, they are perfect. With a thin sock or no socks, they keep your feet as close to the ground as they can be, without going barefoot. They’re durable, too. The oldest pair I have it 3 years with frequent use & they’re still just as solid as the day I bought them.

i've been looking for a pair of shoes in this style for quite a while. Glad I've found it here at Zappos. Good fit, true to size. Thanks.

Probably just me, but I had to return for a larger size and have recently had to with my Brooks as well. Feet still growing...?
These are my favorite casual shoes with, as the name suggests, a minimalist approach but did require the use of arch support for my severe overpronation condition.
Easy on/off and the styling is great, much better than the recent replacement. When I saw the new version in the store I immediately went home to see if I could locate some remaining online in my size (14) and as usual Zappos came through.

This is my second pair of the Minimus. Probably my favorite pair of daily shoes ever. They are low profile and it basically feels like you are barefoot. I put over 100 miles on my first pair and will put another 100 on these

Great shoes. They are minimus shoes so don't expect an arch support. If you are looking for a barefoot experience these are wonderful shoes!

Love the mimimal feel. Great for muddy runs. I sized up 1/2 size and got the wide. The regular are small and narrow.

This is my third pair of these shoes. I can not understand why they have (as far as I can tell) been discontinued by New Balance! They did this once before and then redesigned and reintroduced them, but they are not to be found on their website. Finally my wife is warming up to them as well!

The fit that Zappos recommended was perfect. The problem for me is they changed the shoe construction from the last edition of this shoe I bought last year and I don’t like the way the shoe fits now so I had to return it. I’m trying another brand after trying soooo many other brands like Vivobarefoot, prio, etc…. I’m actually liking this brand called Altra which is not a barefoot shoe but does have zero drop.

These are great. I wore out my last running shoes and was looking for something minimal and stylish. I tried out a few different minimal running shoes, most of which look or felt weird, but these were perfect. I've done a few long runs with them so far and they have been super comfortable. No regrets.

Fit in the size 8.5 was more snug than the size 9 that I had been wearing over the past year. I was surprised that they were not actually too tight. I don’t care for the look, but I also don’t care how I look when I’m out running.

The New Balance Minimus 10 has become my favorite shoe for everyday wear. I wear them throughout the day to include the gym. They provide a stable platform for squats and deadlifts. I have not run in them very much off the treadmill, so not sure how they will perform on pavement. I have gone on some hikes and they performed well. I had to select a half size larger from my usual 10.5 that I wear in Merrel’s.

Make sure you order one size and a half larger. They are narrow as well. I love these shoes. They’re perfect if you’re into minimus shoes with less foam so you can connect with the ground and your body.

finally wore out my orange trail runners from 2010! walked all over italy, manhattan, bay area trails and streets....in rain, in snow....they were better than my boots! go figure how they didn't leak in the snow or rain. cured my planter's fasciitis. wish i had gotten the ones pictured above, but i did finally get the men's black w/white highlights. as a devoted 78 year old walker, i prefer my feet on the ground versus spongy platforms.

I bought the last 2 pair. Had to buy men's as no black minimus for women. Please bring these shoes back!!! Especially black and black with blue stitch. I wish y'all had better women's minimus colors. NO for pink!!
