Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam Cruz v1

Very happy with these sneakers as my gym shoes. Perfect for exercise classes, elliptical, etc. More of a fashion sneaker than running shoes. I use Mizunos for running.

Only slightly uncomfortable at first

I really love these! I’ve gotten so many compliments after only wearing them for one day. They are great for casual wear but feel supportive enough for work out sessions as well. I got the Blue Vapor which is a cool neutral color... plan on purchasing other colors. You will love having these cool sneakers!!

Super comfortable right out of the box. They have great cushion overall. I did order a half size larger per what I read on other reviews.

Love the style and comfort!

Love these. I have 2 pairs now. Perfect for work. I would size up one half size.

This shoe is amazing. It fit perfectly! The shoe is also gorgeous and extremely comfortable. I always need a high toe box, and the material is so soft that nothing rubs on the inside. The lacing gives you extra support on the sides. I am going to buy another one right now.

I ordered these to wear to work. I spend a lot of time on my feet, and wanted something comfortable to wear all day. These are supportive and light enough to wear everywhere. I’ve ordered a second pair for the gym.

Love these shoes! I wanted something cool and comfy for the warmer months and these definitely fit the bill, plus they look amazing on. I'm able to wear them all day with no issues - I feel like I'm walking on clouds. They're so comfortable I don't want to take them off. They do run about a half size small so size up. I'm usually a 9-9 1/2 and ordered a 10, which fit perfectly.

I bought this shoe to wear with jeans on casual days when I don’t feel like heels or more dressy footwear. I love my New Balance running shoes and figured I can’t go wrong with trying this pair. The shoes feel very light and comfortable, look great and I love the color! However, they don’t have much of a footbed and therefore no arch support.

I have zero arch in my feet so I look for shoes that have cater to my feet and have that walking on foam feeling. These shoes check all of those off! Not only are they true to color (Black/Sea Salt) but they also make me feel like I’m walking on foam and help make my feet not hurt!

I bought these for working out - so I thought I would share a review from that perspective, instead of that of someone who purchased them to walk around it. I really like these - wore them for the first time today to a weight lifting class - so they aren't 'cardio' (jumping, running...) tested. But I am super picky about my sneakers. For reference I am 56, about 5'5", 140 lbs, a regular worker-outer. When I put them on they felt a wee bit snug, but they seemed to conform to well to my feet. I have a low arch and a bunion on one foot. These were super light, well cushioned, with ample room in the toe box. Recommend.

I have the silver pair and love it. It’s extremely comfortable and soft. I had to get one half size larger just as other reviewers suggested. What sold me on this is the tan tag that helps provide a warmer and more welcoming tone.

She is 12. She doesn’t get excited about clothes or shoes.....I’m not sure how we are related. Lol!! Any way...she loves these shoes. She had the gray ones with tan bottom but outgrew them quickly so I knew we had to have another pair. She wanted the Black this time. I am loving the NEW New Balance styles. I was also happy to see these with a slight sale price. Another win! Thanks Zappos!

So so comfortable! Haven’t worn them to work out or run - but they’re so comfortable. Awesome achilles support.

One of the most comfortable shoes to date. I have a wide foot (think DD/E) and very high arches/instep. Very comfortable immediately. In addition very cute & stylish. Buying another pair.

Love these. A little hard to get on with a sock, but very very comfortable

Super comfortable, but had to return the first pair I got and order a half size up. These are great for everyday wear. Love that they do not have a tongue and are just one whole piece.

I have been looking for an athletic shoe that would accommodate my bunions (wide feet),and didn't make my knees and back hurt and still looked good..Jackpot !! I got the dragonfruit (pink) and I love them. I like that they slip on and off but don't look like they do. I wore them all day the 1st day I put them on. These are winners !!

Like the looks of this shoe. I wear a 5 1/2 always. Not this year with tennis shoes. Every pair I have ordered has been a half to whole size short. Not sure what is happening. My feet haven't grown. So, I ordered my 2nd pair of this shoe in a 6 and fit no differently than the 5 1/2. I'm not ordering again. Darn.

Love these shoes!

Very attractive-comfortable-sadly ran 1/2 size small. They did feel comfortable though.

Super comfy shoe! The heel has like a foam grippy thing that prevents them from falling off!
