Customer Reviews New Balance FuelCell Echolucent

I researched these shoes along with Brooks and Mizuno. Have worn Mizuno wave riders for many years and was looking for something more stylish but with good support and cushion. LOVE these! They fit very well and are super comfortable and lightweight. I usually wear 9.5 in running shoes and these fit true to size.

Stylish and extremely comfortable. I suffer from neuromas and bunions and the width accommodates both.

The best thing about this shoe is that it has plenty of room in the toe box, which I need, but the rest of the shoe hugs my foot the way I want it too. I have a narrow foot, but because if arthritis and some toe surguries in the past, I need lots of room for my toes. This shoe seems perfect, but I haven't had the chance to wear them for any length of time yet.

Love this shoe! Fit is perfect! I have bunions so I need room but the rest of my foot is fairly narrow and these fit like a glove! I will be ordering 2 more!!!

These are so sharp looking. We ordered a smaller size and then went up a size and they fit. My 11 year old daughter loves them.

I suffer from Morton’s Neuroma . I went a half size up normally wear and 8 and a D width was perfect! Not too bulky and really cute and wide enough for my condition.

Love them! So sharp looking and so comfortable! They’re perfect. And I got them ONE day after I ordered them.

Great athletic shoe, very flexible, breathable & plenty of room in the toe box. I needed more midsole support though.

Let's start with the pros: This is a really thoughtfully designed, well-constructed shoe. I love the fit, the design, the breathability. Fits my narrow heel and wide toe box well (useful info for those of you have my same kind of funky foot, lol). The traction on the outsole is really nice--that plus the 6 mm seem to propel you forward as you run. The cushioning is flexible, allowing for dexterity on more intricate footwork. I have to wear insoles with these shoes due to high arches and sesamoiditis, and just because my fussy feet need more cushioning in general. I usually run in Hokas, so these were a jump and a bit of a shot in the dark for me. They're great for summer running, and I think I'll just use them for my shorter runs, as my feet hurt after seven miles with these babies. I still really like them, which says a lot about the shoe design alone. Cons: Not a ton of forefoot cushioning for those who need it; not the most responsive shoe. Again, I'm usually a Hoka gal, so take that into account. NB just has a special place in my heart (will go for a Fresh Foam shoe next time!).

I received these yesterday, but so far they are very comfortable! Definitely a running shoe so if you’re looking for an everyday athletic shoe this is probably not it. I usually am a 5.5 in Nike Vomeros but these run a little small; next time I will half-size up. I have been a Nike customer for a long time, but since they switched the style recently I needed to find a new brand. These did not disappoint.

These are one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever had on. Would highly recommend.

Fit perfectly. I now own two pair. Keeping a pair for when they change the style ?

NB Running shoes are always one size smaller than regular street/everyday shoes. I’m a 6 and got a 7 wide. Fits perfectly. However this pair has a slightly higher back tongue. My first wear it rubbed my Achilles heel raw. However I think after u break it in, it’ll be ok. For ur first wear, put a bandage on the Achilles heel to prevent rubbing. Roomy toe bed.

Hard to slip my foot into the shoe, and uncomfortable in the heel -- they gave me blisters. LOVE the look though and wish they were available in a bigger size. I really wanted to like these.

Very comfortable but had to size up a 1/2 size. Runs small!

They fit fine. However, the variety of materials used for the white and black pair are terrible. The front part has a whitish-yellow opaque area across the top of the toe. Below is a striped see-through fabric. The sides and back have some kind of fabric stripes in them that pick up dust and dirt. The result is areas of the shoe that get dirty and the combinations of materials don't look right together. I have had to wash them, and scrub all the small areas, and use a bleach pen to get them back to almost (but not quite) white again. I'm so disappointed that I didn't return them.

Cheaply made sneaker!

Wanted to love them, but feet went to sleep while walking; too snug! Going to try a whole size larger than normal.
