I was hoping for a light weight workout and/or walking shoe - these are not that. The soles are thin and uncomfortable, and when I go to my HIIT workout classes in them my heel slips out the back constantly.
These are great for running errands and for wearing casual sneakers though! But working out or being comfortable on my feet for a long time, not so much. The thicker running shoes (I have the Fresh Foam Roav's, they're great) are better for those activities.

I usually wear an 8 1/2 in runners and an 8 in most other types of shoes.
FIT: 8 1/2 worked fine.
APPEARANCE: these shoes are very nice, they look good with shorts and pants.
PERFORMANCE: the arch support isn't there, it feels more like I'm wearing flip flops. I walked around for 4 miles one day and my feet were sore by the end of it.

These shoes are incredibly comfortable and cute. They fit true to size, lightweight, and I have enjoyed wearing them. However, after less than a year, the flimsy fabric has started to wear through at the toe on both shoes. Pretty disappointing as I really liked these.

Good cushioning but the fit is very snug. I was excited to find these in a womens 12 but I think a men's size would have fit better. I have to make sure my toenails are trimmed and my socks are super thin.

The fit was fine, But this shoe has fake laces and my heel easily pops out of the back. It looks nice but has no support and is not bouncy like other New Balances. It's a pretty cheap shoe.

The right shoe is about a half size smaller and it is not my feet being different. I have the same pair in a different color and they are wonderful. Somehow I think they are seconds. If I had not thrown them on and left the house and worn them I would have sent them back. Very dissatisfied for the price I paid.

I ordered these shoes as a replacement for another pair I had (and loved), but which got messed up by paint. I was very disappointed when, after wearing this new pair out for the first time, the inner soles of both shoes came out with my feet!
The previous pair I had did no such thing, so this seemed to me to be a quality issue. My dad glued both down which resolved the issue, but we shouldn't have had to repair anything.

They're okay, but too warm feeling. Wanted cooler.

These are well-made, as always with New Balance, and very comfortable and true to size. But the soles have a raised spot near the ball of the foot and toes. Walking in them is a very strange experience. It is the sole reason I have returned them. Pun intended.

There’s not a lot of arch support in these. Started noticing a correlation of wearing these shoes and knee pain. Switched back to my old shoes & the pain would go away. Tried several more times and knee pain came back. These shoes are not for me.

Length felt true to size but my foot felt like it was sliding around while doing a plyo workout.

I use these athletic shoes for indoor training. I have found them to be comfotable but they are sized differently than other athletic shoes. I find they are sized a bit short and wide. I had to get a half size longer than I always wear. And they are wide so the heel is loose. When I do floor sprints they want to come off. So comfy but not really great for what I need them for- atheletics. A bit disappointed in New Balance.

Package arrived damaged with ripped and holed so I threw right away (Covid!!!)
Then when I tried on I was very surprised how light and cute they are
However although I ordered 1 size bigger they were still too small
I just shopped them back
Sad !!!

I like the design of the shoe but it is wide. The way the stitching is on the shoe it cannot be laced up tight enough. If you have narrow feet perhaps you want to look at another design

The fabric for this shoe is different from the pink one. It is a coarser fabric which I didn't care for. I usually wear an 8.5 but need a 9 in this shoe.

I think they are cute and light weight. They were too narrow for me. I did order a wide but still too narrow.

The shoes are super cute and comfortable, but evidently run a full size small. I'm usually an 8, but I ordered an 8.5 to be safe and my toe just hits the front of the shoe.

I use these for my regular walking shoes. I bought them to replace my old Adidas. They are not horrible but they are a step down. I recommend buying them a 1/2 size up because they are not tight but they are very constricting. I'm a perfect size 6 shoe and I should've bought a 6.5. They are very cute though and wouldn't wear them for work outs by definitely to walk around and go places.

Such a nice shoe. I like how light they are! But they definitely run small and are not for wide feet like mine. Even though they're "wide fit"
