Customer Reviews New Balance Fuelcell v1

Very comfortable from the get-go. Upper provides excellent ventilation but without compromising support, making this great summer shoe.

Love this shoe. Super comfortable

Love the colors, had lots of people compliment me on my new shoes. Love, love, love...

Great shoe

Feels a bit hard in contact with the ground, as if the cushioning is a but stiff. Looks badass, the sole really stands out. =)

Bought these for my son. They are much wider than other NB shoes I have gotten for him

The shoe looks great, I wish more NB shoes were this stylish. I ordered 8.5 wide, but the shoe still is narrow, especially in the middle. Doesn't seem like this is a very supportive running shoe either. The sole is way too bendy for the price (typically the higher-end NB shoes have a less bendy sole and provide more support).

LOVE THIS BEAUTIFUL WHITE SHOE! GREAT FOR MY SUMMER OUTINGS. AND MY WORK OUTS. THESE FIT SO NICELY. --SIZE WIDE 9.5 THE WIDTH IS VERY GOOD. THE STYLE ACTUALLY MAKES SUCH A FUN SUMMERY STATEMENT! LOVE THESE

I? bought these for my 13 year old son. He loved the style and I? loved the New Balance reputation. He plays baseball and we got these specifically for off season training. They have held up incredibly well, much better than previously owned Nike Metcon. They are much lighter weight and he likes that they “fit” to the foot well. They have excellent lateral support but also the feel of a running shoe. Will get a second pair when he finally wears these out. I’ve added pictures to show how well these have have held up after almost 8 months of heavy use.

For walking I’d say they would be ok but to actually run ok them, I’d say look at something with more cushion and better arch support.

Really loved the style and the feel but the soles are very soft and I wore them out in a fraction of the time of other sneakers.

Shoe too narrow at midsole. Arches felt odd, like they were too high. It actually made my arches feel sore after walking a few minutes.

Very nice shoe and true to fit but the lack of arch support was the reason they went back.

The mesh material on the top of the shoe is poorly designed, and inappropriate. This otherwise great shoe is completely ruined by this material. It has no strength, no durability, and should not be there. Within only a few weeks your big toe will be sticking through the front while the rest of the shoe is barely broken in. I went through two pairs of these in three months, which is tough to do at $160. If it weren't for this fatal flaw these would have been the best Ive had in over a decade. Because of the flaw they are indisputably the worst. Do not buy them.
