Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam Roav

The foot base feels thin/not wide enough. It absorbed impact oddly. I wasn't the biggest fan of the high back and ankle opening point. It kind of felt like my ankle was being choked by a cat... but a cat made out of tougher than expected constricting foam. Cool looking though, and others I'm sure may like the feel more.

I had to return these because they were too wide for my foot and the heel slipped as I walked.

Was hoping insole to be more soft, but it's king for hard, not bad either. could be excellent though

Bought a pair 8.5Wide because the last time I bought similar NB sneakers that was what the salesperson told me to buy. They were fine but this pair was way too big, same size. So I exchanged for a 8.5Regular thinking it would be better, but unfortunately it wasn't. They hurt just walking around the house for a few hours. I love everything else about them, they look amazing and are so lightweight. Can't see serious runners buying these. They are more for walking. I'll try another style from NB.

Great style and perfect for walking. A bit snug around the top of the foot, would recommend a size up than typical sizing.

This is an OK running show but with a terrible design flaw that makes it far less desirable to were, and so was returned- the flap underneath the laces is sown into the opening, making it impossible to insert the foot into the shoe. I have been buying running shoes for nearly 50 years and have never seen such a poor design feature as this. I suspect most shoes made in this fashion are ultimately not purchased. .

The wide width is still pretty narrow and does not fit compared to other brands wide width sizes.

I ordered wide and the are very tight

I love New balance shoes, have had over 20 pair's But this one is not for me, if I was doing shape pivoting the ankle support would dig into the my ankles

Advertised as black and they are navy blue Not happy

Shoe runs small, but is comfortable enough. The back is oddly shaped and makes it hard to put on. I wore mine twice and the rubber at the bottom already had a rip. I probably wouldn't buy again.

Ordered the correct size, 10.5, but, literally, my toes are touching the front of the shoe, causing discomfort just walking. Absolutely no way someone could exercise in them. Very disappointed, don't feel like I got my money's worth.

I was too narrow .

I love new balance! I usually wear the new balance nergize foam core but that style doesn't have as many colors as the roav. I was excited to try the roav and bought the maroon in my normal new balance size-9. The roav were so tight I could hardly get them on. I wore them around the house to see if they would loosen up and both my feet went numb. I guess I'll have to go back to the nergize and just buy the plain colors. Such a bummer.

Much narrower toes than other brands that I wear (Columbia), but very comfortable sole. Also, my toes were wet after only a few steps walking on wet floor, while I can walk in light rain without getting wet with my other fully breathable sneakers.

I've never had a running shoe where there essentially was no "tongue". I'm not sure if all shoes made like this run small, but for me, this shoe did. Return was easy as we have a NB store in town

The Shoe doesn't have enough support for those who have foot problems

the ribbons that hold the base of the laces tore within the month, super flimsy, when I tried to resew it myself it completely shredded. I love the look and the comfort but it's useless if you can't tie it.

Read reviews and felt corrected size would fit. Runs about a half size smaller than normal size. Had no arch support and that was one of the reasons I selected New Balance. Haven't had a pair of NB in years. Returned without trying another size.
