I love this running shoe. It runs half a size smaller. I usually wear 7.5 and I ordered 8. Fits perfectly.

I love these shoes! Wore them for a 5 mile walk and they felt really comfortable. Like the light weight shoe and the glacier blue/green color. Easy to clean. Perfect fit.

Toe box Wide I purchased these to be my new running shoes. The toe box was way too big for that. They are my favorite color so I use them for walking.

This is my second pair of these shoes. I love them because they are so cush when I walk. I walk the miles everyday and they lasted almost a year before I noticed the sole was looking pretty thin, but not cracked through yet. I will continue to buy these for my wife feet. No blisters ever and no wearing them in.

These seem pretty good. I have only worn them a few times. I have plantar fasciitis and have hard time finding shoes that don’t hurt my heel and so far these are ok.

These shoes are incredibly comfortable but I wish the tongue styed in place better. It slides to the outer edge easily. It would be perfect if they could make the tongue stay centered.

I ordered the Wide. While I say true to width they are a little more narrow than the blue color but still comfortable. I know this since I bought them both.

I am an avid runner. I have been using Fresh Foam Zante for several years and so sad to see they are gone. I decided to give these a try and I really do like them! They take a minute to adjust to as I am use to a little less cushioning but I think I will be a new favorite soon.

I bought the NB Beacon v3 and the Vaygo to compare and try. I have a short, wide foot and high arch. I bought size 6 wide. The Vaygo fit like a glove, and is a very lightweight shoe. In my opinion it is cuter than the Beacon. However, after wearing it around the house for a few hours I noticed my little toe was pressing up against the side of the shoe - a potential problem. Also, there was little room in front of my toes. The Beacon is overall a roomier shoe - a little more width and length. It has more arch support and feels like more substantial support under the foot. I kind of liked the Vaygo more but I think over time the fit would be too constricting, and I need good cushioning under my foot so I am sticking with the Beacon v3.

I love these shoes! They're light weight, cushioning is nice, all around great neutral shoe. But if you have narrow feet your feet will slip.

The sole feels good. They are light weight. But I ordered bigger than normal and thank goodness because they run small.

I was running in version 2 and this version does not feel as cushiony, yet I feel like there’s more underneath my forefoot. I wish running companies would stop changing the versions every year. You can almost never stay true to a shoe or even a brand sometimes.

Although they fit well, I did size of a half sizes I normally do, they did not work out well for my needs. Walking around the house they felt fine but once I tried exercising in them after 10 minutes the balls of my feet were screaming…So back to go
