I purchased the 1260v7 to use primarily as an indoor running shoe. I run on an indoor carpeted track and I also run a bit on a treadmill. The 1260v7s are very comfortable and I highly recommend them.

Shoes fit great, with ample room in toe box. Very good heal cushion.

I've been running in the 860 for several years. I love the added cushioning. I've put in about 20 miles ...so far so good.

This is my go-to running shoe. I've purchased these in two colors and will be getting a third. Great arch support, comfortable, and cushioned. Love these!

Really like to shoe style and have been very pleased with the comfort. Not as cushy as i expected, but very responsive. Out a lot when dark and like the reflective properties...very cool! Posted another review on some trail shoes and forgot to mention how pleased i am with Zappos...2nd to none!

I have this show in blue and it has been tremendous so I came back and ordered a grey pair. The grey pair felt tighter across the inside of my left foot when I put them on initially but they stretched out nicely by the time I was finished wearing them the first time (I don't recall this being necessary in the blue pair). I have little to arch and this has been the best running shoe I have found. I would recommend them highly!

Easily the most comfortable athletic/running shoes I've ever bought. The size fits true. They're quite durable as I regularly throw mine in a washer, and there's not so much as a loose thread on the shoes.

New runner here. I've been walking 2+ miles a day for many years, but recently decided to train and run a 5K at least. My aging knees were not taking kindly to the pounding allowed by the NB Minimus that I use for walking. So I skimmed through recommendations and reviews for over-pronating flat-footed and landed on the 1260 v7. Thankfully I got the sizing right based on my previous NB experience and started running. I'm really still breaking these shoes in, but so far I (and my knees) really like them. Hoping they'll last for many miles!

the size on this shoe is true.. the normal toe box slightly narrow, hence bought the wide / 2E
the drop on this shoe is less than normal running shoe... more of a mid foot strike.. as a overpronator, this shoe makes my stride more balanced and pain free... thanks to Zappos! i was able to try numerous shoes and find something that works.. Retail stores never stock my size.. Mens 7 with a wide toe box..

Great running shoe! I am a walker who occasionally sprints and these in the thunder/black. I usually do 2 - 2/12 miles a day. I own 7 pairs of running shoes and 5 of them are New Balance. I am a moderate overpronator and the majority of the NB shoes help to reduce that effect when I especially walk. These have a fairly wide toe box which really works for me. The cushioning from heel to toe is quite adequate, as is the support. I highly recommend these!

I play golf in these running shoes. The stability made the knee pain I had for 2 years go away.

For me, shoes are all about comfort. Whether wearing these on a run or everyday use, they are extremely comfortable! The quality is also terrific, really well made. If you’re thinking about getting these shoes, do yourself a favor and get them. You will not be disappointed!

I'm not a runner so I won't comment on how these shoes perform for running. I am a big guy with flat feet and fairly severe overpronation. My feet swell due to poor circulation. It's hard for me to find shoes that fit well in a size 14 EE. New Balance has the best fit for me. These shoes are super light, comfortable and cushy as can be. And they provide excellent arch support and stability. They are not cheap, but they are worth the money and are far more comfortable than my Brooks Beast which are more expensive. Thank you New Balance! And thank you, Zappos, for making it easy for me to get them.

I wear a size 14, so finding a comfortable shoe can be a challenge. I have owned 2 other versions of the 1260, and the new V 7 fits the same, and appears to be of the same great quality of all of my NB shoes.

I love how soft these feel on my feet while still giving me the support I need to get out there and move.
