Customer Reviews New Balance 1260v6

I absolutely love this show and I am so sad that I cannot find it anymore. I wish I had ordered several pair??it is so hard to find a shoe that fits my foot, provides support, and is somewhat cute. Please bring it back!

I only tried on these shoes for a short time in the house. WOW. They had a wide toe box which is sometimes hard to find. I have wide feet, wear custom orthodics and over-pronate. I ordered this shoe in a wide width. My orthodics fit into these shoes easily and this shoe was incredibly comfortable. I need to walk around the house with these on for a bit more time to determine if the over-pronation support works well or strains me, but for a first glance review I'm super impressed. If the over-pronation support works well without strain, these may unseat my go-to shoes which are Brooks GTS 17.

I loved the color of these. They just didn't feel quite as wide as other NB shoes. I'm returning to find another model that works.

Great shoes. Helped me tremendously with my hip pain. Great for over pronation.

Love the shoe fit except for the loose heel due to custom orthotics. Otherwise would be a keeper.

I absolutely LOVE these shoes. I actually just tried to order second pair because by the time I order another pair New Balance won't make them anymore!! It's so frustrating that they do this!! This is the first pair of New Balance that I actually think look really stylish..great color...very comfortable. Finally!! Please Zappos, order more of this shoe, I'll buy more.

I just ordered my second pair of these shoes. Love the fit and the stability they provide. I have a hard time finding shoes that are comfortable and accommodate my orthotics.

I have flat feet and these work great for every day wear, walks, and working out.

I've work New Balance running shoes for years but they have changed their styles and I am having a hard time finding a new pair that I like for running. At first these felt good -- the wide size fits my bunions and has enough stretch to still be comfortable when my feet swell. However, they have very little midsole cushioning and I get footsore after running on city streets. I am already looking for a new pair.

After trying 4 pairs of Asics, 2 pair of Brooks (sizes 10 and 10.5) I finally found a pair of shoes that fit. One pair of Asics were too small in the 10.5; the Brooks were either too short or too long. New Balance was perfect in the usual 10. They are not excessively padded, the arch is long and fits beautifully and the heel does not slip. If it does, there is the extra set of eyelets to use for further slip prevention. Also-the colors are not disgustingly blinding. Way to go, New Balance!!!!! Thanks to Zappos for patience and rapid response.

I always buy new balance for my over pronation. The are true to size in width and have good arch support. I take out the insoles and put my own orthotic inside since I have really bad feet. No breaking in time wore them for my workouts without any problems.

These are the best shoes ive put on my feet in a long,long time. Felt like I was putting on my favorite slippers, they fit like a glove on my feet. They run TTS, I wear an 8W and that is what I purchased. You can feel some medial support that runs the entire length of the shoe but its not so rigid that you feel like you're walking on the edge of a board. I have plantar fasciitis and a hypermobile big toe joint and these shoes have been a life saver. I will probably order a couple of extra pair to have for when these wear out.

great shoe. accommodates custom orthotics. could be narrower in heel. needs longer shoe laces if you are using the 2nd set of loops around the ankle.

Since I have plantar fasciitis I keep looking for the perfect shoe. This was recommended on a internet site. I always wear an 8 W in New Balance, however these seem to run large. I exchanged it for a 7.5 W and they fit perfectly. Seem to be very comfortable for my issue and I try to wear them everyday. Love Zappos for the quick exchange.

very wide toe box as many of the other reviewers have said. too loose in the heel for me, many of the shoes are, though. Just not the right fit for my foot. Saucony fits me tighter in the heels. Asics has more cushion...if you are looking for that.

Great job New Balance. Most comfortable athletic shoe. Great arch support for my flat feet. Wide width which I need. And plenty of room so it doesn't crunch my toes.

I realize that I have a difficult foot to fit. I wear a women's size 12 2A. So happy that Zappos has a SELECTION for me to try! This was the shoe I finally landed on. I did try Asics, Saucony and Mizuno. This was by far the best feeling and fitting. I will use these for walking, as I walk about 3 miles a day.

This is the latest iteration of the NB 1260 and I have been wearing them for several years. They are great for a pronator (me) and give me solid support. I have not been disappointed in these shoes and the latest color updates are great!

I had seen these shoes on the New Balance website, but my size was sold out. I usually wear a size 7 1/2 N in Mizunos. Since Mizunos run small, I took a chance and ordered a 7 N. They fit perfectly! I love the color. The shoes have a good amount of cushioning, and will give many comfortable miles.

I bought these for the support, I have issues with an ankle and a toe. These shoes have been great even without the help of my inserts! They are comfortable and keep me stable on my feet! They do seem a little long in the toe but sizing seems perfect. I ordered the blue for myself they are such a fun color. I also ordered a pair for my daughter she felt that they were too long in the toe box and prefers a lighter weight shoe so we returned hers.

Really like this shoe. I have a wide toe area and a narrow heel and do lots of gym work requiring lateral motion. I love New Balance which also usually has the the wide, wide toe box but my foot slips a bit. This is a tad narrower in the toe box but just fits my size 12 weird shaped foot. Comfort goes without saying for New Balance and this was true for this shoe, too. Good padding, better than most of the other brands (have tried many) of gym type shoes I have tried. Good arch support. Just fits really well for me. I think the style is a more understated but still cute and modern style. If these shoes were not so expensive, I would be back now for a second pair (but since I just ordered a second pair of Allegria Jemma's which also fit my weird foot beautifully, I'll have to wait. IF money were no object, I would order three pairs of this New Balance shoe and wear them every day!!!

Comfortable running shoe. Good arch support but not too much. Cushioning is great and helps with longer runs. Would highly recommend.

I have always had a chronic problem with rolling/spraining my ankles to the point where I was told I needed ligament reconstruction surgery on both ankles. I had one performed and then when I was getting back into running went to a running store and had these fitted. That was in 2012 and I have never worn another running sneaker since. I had run somewhere around 6 half marathons and 1 full marathon since then and have not had any ankle rolls/sprains since. These sneakers have completely changed my life with running and offer me the perfect support. I buy a new model annually. I usually wear a size 9 in other shoes/sneakers but I need to size up to a 9.5 with these or they are too small in the toe box. Highly recommended.
