Customer Reviews New Balance Minimus 10v1

I wear these as my everyday shoes. Wear them all of the time.

You've got to know what works for you and your feet/body. I love these. After trying a variety of other shoes that were light (but not minimalist) I decided to give these a try. I ran my first 1/2 in these and easily scaling 10k a day with no issues. Before my legs/shins/ankles felt awful! I don't like road running so tend to seek out trails/gravel or unpaved roads.

I have been wearing this design for 10 years. For a few years, the design changed, and I didn't like that one, but recently they went back to the design from 10 years ago, so I'm happy again. I have stocked up on several pairs so I will be set for a few years if they decide to change the design again. I hope they don't because this shoe is absolutely. perfect. I use it for CrossFit style workouts and sprint conditioning. Good support for sprinting/cutting--I love the metatarsal strap. Perfect for deadlifts, power cleans, push press, etc. I do own a pair of olympic lifting shoes for heavy lifts, but for lighter lifts or circuit style training, these are great. They might not be good for marathon running, but I don't train for that, so not a problem for me.

I feel this shoe was made just for my foot. I have been wearing this shoe since high school. I pray they never stop making them. I'm on my third pair. My last ones lasted about 2 years and I used them for everything from hiking to daily wear to skateboarding on the occasion. They are so comfortable and give the perfect amount of support. Would foreshore recommend to everyone.

I have used Minimus Trails for maybe 10 years now. I run trails, lift weights, hike and any other kind of athletic activities. They also are great travel shoes. I just purchased my third pair, not because pair number two wore out but because I am worried they are slowly discontinuing this version.

They fit like a glove! It's a snug like a sock which I personally love. They say runs a half size small. I ordered what I normally order and they're perfect.

Super happy and feels like the old Minimus Trail shoe

Very comfortable. Good traction on hard and dirt surfaces.

Since my previous show I have run/walked in them nearly every day; anywhere from 5 to 10 miles each day. The rubber strap over the toe box must have loosened up a little bit and they have become more comfortable. I still think they run narrow (this is for the 13 Wide) but, over time, have become comfortable. I would buy these again.

The shoe is very durable & wears well ! Once you get use to the no cushion design , they are fantastic. I mainly do long distance events & find they are great with no blisters or foot problems.

The shoe is perfect for my outdoor life style. Definitely will buy another pair soon.

Working from home like many others - the brief moments during the day when I walk around the house are a whole new experience with these shoes. Really glad I tried these. PS - the wider version (EE width) is much better even though I normally wear a D width

Really love this shoe so far. I mostly run on pavement, but I feel confident this would be a great trail / hiking shoe, as well. Super soft and not at all restrictive. A little more tread / height than the Minimus 20v4 I'm coming from, but overall more comfortable. As for sizing, I went from an 8.5 normal width in the 20v4 to a 9 wide and they are pretty much identical in fit for me, so something to keep in mind.

I use this product mostly on AstroTurf. The minimums sneakers are great. They are light weight and give me the bounce and comfortable movement while running.

Shoes are great. I have Sophia Rose and we go for long walks. Shoes are the best.

Great grip, truly minimal, highly durable, wide toe area for natural foot placement.

I have 2 other different pairs of Minimus trainers and these are by far the best. The moonbeam colorway is really smart looking, the sole nice and grippy, and very comfortable for cross training/weight lifting/circuit training. In regards to the fit, I own about 15+ pairs of various New Balance, 574, 576, 577, 1500, 976, Minimus etc.....and i take a size US9 in all of them. After reading the various reviews of fit, seemed like many said these run half size small, some say it fits true. I ordered both 9 (my size) and 9.5 (half larger) and after comparing the fit, I kept the size 9 and returned 9.5 IMO, these fit true to size with no crushing of toes or any other discomfort. The 9.5 did fit fine, and if I had only bought that size I could have worn it with no problem, but comparing the 2 sizes, the size 9 were perfect. Obviously when it comes to footwear YMMV

Loved the 10v3. I have 10v4 too, and while comfy, I preferred the previous design. This is a decent return.

I enjoy using these shoes for running, hiking, kayaking and other land and water activities. Sizing is off so usually 10.5 for sneakers but 11.0 for these.

Great shoes for trail running, the gym or casual wearing.

At first, I was not entirely sure if I was going to like it - but the shoe surprised me with its strong but flexible construction, and especially how comfortable it is to wear - even for every day purposes (e.g., walking). As the instructions say: make sure you buy ONE SIZE UP. I am glad that NB brought back wide sizes with this one also. A great buy!

They are like walking barefoot, so I wear them every chance I get. And they're the only shoes I'll run in no matter the season I don't understand why everyone doesn't own a pair.

Love this shoe been using it for a few years. To some it might be to much of "barefoot feeling" however I like the flexibility and how light it feels. Great for running including trails. It does run small, I am a 10 and had to order an 11.
