Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam Cruz V2 Sport

Fantastic shoe - looks good, modern, great cushioning. I use an orthotic, and ordered 1/2 size bigger and wide width after "missing" on the first guess (normal size, but still wide). I had these on all day yesterday walking through Boston and then the airport, and all day thereafter - i decided then and there to order another pair in another color. When you lace them up, you can still slip them on and off with the "sock-like" fabric, yet the shoes stay firm. No pinch points. Great walking/running shoes, and good looking enough to wear with "nice casual" wear. Got compliments when i wore to a party last Sunday. my only complaint is that the back of the shoe comes up higher than many sneakers, and your "low" running socks may not cover. I got a little rub there when i first put them on, so i now am sure to wear a brand with a little higher sock collar.

These shoes are extremely comfortable and lightweight.

Really amazing style and looks great for an extrawide shoe. I love it

This is my 4th pair of fresh foams from New balance. If you have Plantar fasciitis or foot pain in general I recommend these shoes. They're not a cure all but I stand on my feet 8 hrs a day at work and these are the most comfortable shoes ever. I tried similar styles in nike and adidas but had to return them , they did not give me the comfort and support fresh foams do. Will continue to buy these shoes.

Zappos is great to deal with, from their easy to use site, the abundant sizes and styles, to their great shipping and return policy. This should be the first site you look at for products.

I work at a distillery and am on my feet for an entire shift. These have done a great job at keeping me comfortable and were easy to break in. I definitely would buy again.

Very light, supportive and comfortable

I am undecided about these shoes, they are very comfortable with excellent heel cushioning, however, the mid-foot cushioning was not as good as expected. I like the "sock fitting" but it takes away from what I have been used to; I cannot lace them up to be tighter, as I have been able to do with past running shoes. Overall, I would recommend these shoes with the exceptions I have noted above.

New Balance did a great job with this shoe. Comfy. Looks great. And as always with NB - excellent support and fit! An excellent value!

These shoes are great for my husband as he needs all black shoes for his job. He liked them so much we bought an extra pair to have when the first pair wears out!

Very comfortable, but definitely order a 1/2 size larger than your regular size. I wear 8EE and had to get 8 1/2EE

I always get 0.5 size bigger to put my arch support prosthetics in. So the 10 D work fine. Very comfortable summer slip ons.

Overall it fits okay. A little wider/more roomy than some other NB shoes I have but not too bad. They have limited lacing so you can't really tighten them, but I'm just using them as casual sneakers so they're fine for me.

Fit and comfort were good although it felt like mid foot wasn't as cushioned as heel and ball of foot areas. Style evaporates because of the soft knit material at the toebox. Don't look as good on foot. A good shoe for some, just not for me. Returned them.

Purchased these for my son, who is a growing machine, and, as of a year ago, officially entered the wide shoe category. He swore by his Fresh Foam Cruz V1s, and, so far (after three weeks of wear), loves his V2s. My only complaint (which my son shares), is that the V2s seem to be change simply for the sake of change. The V1s, frankly, looked better, and were a bit more comfortable, overall. Still, the Fresh Foam Cruz V2 is a great, comfortable all-around shoe that can go from classroom to field to movie theater without missing a beat.

I ordered a 13EE, and it looked like an orthotic shoe. Maybe the shoe just doesn't look right on my foot. It felt a little small, so I would order a size up, of you need wide.

My wide feet love New Balance shoes, normally. These weren’t roomy enough in the shoe or wide enough. I can wear 8 EEEE in some shoes, but the 9 extra wide of these were way too small. Sorry NB!

Super comfy soles, but hard plastic parts on the sides of the shoes where the laces attach bothered my feet and made a pressure point. And I have skinny feet! Bad design quality. But, they look dope.
