Fantastic running sneaker. Purchased my first pair of New Balance and could not be happier. True to size, light weight and super comfortable.

These shoes are the one. I love them. My bootcamp instructor recommended them and I saw why almost immediately. The right level of support and comfort. I typically never wear shoes in my home but these shoes I've kept on while at home because they are just that great.

I love these shoes. They are perfect for my hammer toes and my bunions and my plantar fasciitis. I only wish I could find them in other colors.

I love these shoes. Have 4 pairs! Light weight, cushioned sole and sleek look. Went with the wide to accept my orthodics. They saved our latest 12 day trip (cobblestone streets are hard on problematic feet).

These are super lightweight and comfortable. They're perfect for my gym workouts. I love New Balance because they come in wide sizes. This was my second pair to replace a similar style that I've worn out after 3 years. This style is a half size smaller than my other New Balance in the same size, both in length and width. I ordered a half size up (8 W) and they fit perfectly.

Great shoes. I got two pairs during the current sale. I wear an 8.5 in Mizunos and an 8 in Asics and an 8 fit best for me with these. These aren’t super cushioned or shock absorbing, but they put a nice spring in your step with the significant drop from forefoot to toe and they are very light and ultra comfortable. I wouldn’t run over 5 miles in them, but they seem great for walking and training. My white pair also had a run in with a dog paw that left some dirt stains and I was impressed that the stains lifted very easily from the knit fabric with soap and water, unlike my Ultraboosts that seem to hold onto dirt like it’s the last drop of water in a hot desert. If you’re on the fence, I’d recommend trying these out.

I usually buy these a half size big for running. I love these as much as my last pair. They are comfy and I love the mesh top to give room for my big toe that turns up.

These are the most comfortable shoes ever!! I bought them for a 2 week tour in the Middle East and have to say my feet were happy the whole time!! Now that I'm home they will be great for exercising. Look good, felt great!

I was certain Zappos would red flag me since I had returned so many shoes in search of a comfortable fit. The New Balance Fresh Foam Zante Pursuit fit the bill. I visited Italy for 17 days in October and walked an average 5 to 10 miles a day. My feet were comfortable on all sorts of ground , the soft shoe allowed for movement and the light weight added to the comfort.

This shoe felt great on my foot, especially with the mesh upper. However, decided to try them out (since Zappo's offers 30 day trial for running shoes!).
My toes started to hurt about 10 minutes into my 2 mile walk. So, back they go. I've tried many shoes in the last few months trying to replace my New Balance 1080 from couple of years ago. None seem to have the same cushioning - even the same model from this year.

Just ran on the treadmill and the shoes did great. The white snow is beautiful and sharp looking. Will buy in other colors.

This is my second pair of these shoes. They are extremely comfortable walking shoes. They run about a half size small. I wear a 7 in regular shoes and a 7 1/2 in athletic shoes but I need an 8 in these shoes. (I have regular width feet with narrow heels and high arches.)
The shoes are very light and great for travel. I wore them every day on my vacation and now find myself wanting to wear them all the time at home. Walked six miles in them yesterday.

I really do like the shoe. It is lighter than I had even hoped. The top material is very comfortable. Stretches to fit my foot. The shoes arrived 4 days earlier than expected. You folks are awesome!

I tried about 6 pairs of running shoes (although I’m going to use this as a waking shoe) and these shoes are very comfortable. I like the upper- snug in a good way for running, your foot is not going to slide around the toe box, yet very flexible like a sock. The cushioning is great.

I love these shoes for summer! The fit and size are perfect and I love the cosmetics of the shoe. The shoe is light but the foot bed offers good really support.
I am a personal trainer and am on my feet all day and my feet are happy at the end of the day.

I always order one size up in NB. These are so comfortable I put them on and wore all day for yard work and gardening. They are flashy in the purple- that’s okay with me!

I had gotten a pair of these from New Balance so I knew I had to order 1/2 size larger than usual. Love these - they are light and comfortable.

I love New Balance and have bought leather walking shoes and running shoes, and the fit and the look of these shoes are why I keep going back to New Balance. They hit just right on the sides so the rim of the shoe does not ride high and cut into the outside bone at the ankle. The color is great...not too black, with nice flecks of white in them that give them a classy look. I will be wearing these on my 70 birthday trip to ride roller coasters in the U.S. and Canada, and I KNOW my feet will not mind the asphalt and concrete they will encounter every minute!
