The first Fresh Foam shoe were incredible...cushioned heel to toe (like walking in memory foam), great arch support (always good placement), and consistent sizing in length and width. One of the few truly great shoes for supination (excellent support if you run down the outside of heels of your shoes). Each pair I try is worse than the one before it. No more.

I purchased these for workouts with a personal trainer. I feel like they run a tad small. They were cushiony, comfortable, and did the trick but they are not the most comfortable New Balance shoes I own. Would not purchase them again.

I have bought the same sneaker for a few years now and always loved this style. However, this time the fit seems more narrow with not as wide of a toe bed. How can this be?

I thought I was ordering the Fresh Foam 860v11, but got these instead. These are narrower in the toes and are not as comfortable for my workouts.

I love these shoes! They are amazing for running because of the great cushioning! My usual size in running shoes is an 8, however, I had to return the size 8 for an 8.5. That is the only reason I took off one star. I wish New Balance would be more true to size!

This is the first time I bought a proper running shoe, I had just begun doing casual runs. Like all the reviews say, the shoe is a smaller, tighter fit than average, so I made my first order with a half size up. It fit a bit snug so I had to return my order for another half size up and a wider fit. That didn't leave many options for me in terms of colours so I didn't end up with the colour I wanted (I know that's not the point but still!). The new order came promptly and was a little bit loose which I'm told is perfect for running. Did a few runs with it and it feels fine. The material is harder than I expected but again, I'm told that's what I should be using. No complaints overall but I'm not an experienced runner, so I wouldn't say I'm the best judge for this. Another notable thing was that they don't do exchanges here, you have to refund and make orders if the size isn't right. That wouldn't be too big of a problem except the price changed in the two wks that I had to process a new order. I was told (via phone customer service rep) that they can price match it but then the refund didn't reflect this, and I had to contact their customer service via text to get it fixed. It took some back and forth at first but they were able to do it for me in the end. It's nice to know they actually have a customer service team that is responsive and willing to honour their word, so that's always a plus these days. Hope this review helps!

returning because they seem a bit too lightweight/flimsy for what I want (I walk about 20 miles per week). I notice the whole top of the foot is made of mesh vs having a strip of rubber nearer the sole and I was afraid they would stretch out quickly. however the fit was great; I can recommend for someone who wants a lightweight running show.

I bought these sneakers in my size and they don't fit. They are about half a size to small. I lost the receipt and now I am unable to return them.

Very comfortable, love the simple but classy styling of the black color. I don’t why everyone is saying that they run small, the 8 wide size is literally exactly the same as my 880v9 in length and width. My only complaint and reason for the docked star is that the heel piece comes up slightly too high on the Achilles and rubs a little. Hoping this breaks in, for now it’s tolerable, the rest of the shoe fits so well. Wish there was slightly more cushioning, but if you’re someone who finds the super cushy shoes a little too unstable you’ll like these.

I have really struggled to find a pair of shoes that are comfortable from the first time trying them on. I have high arches and a wide forefoot and bad knees so I need more support. These shoes have the support I need for all of my issues! I think I’m going to order a second pair.

The width as an extra wide is not correct, it should be just a wide as it didn't fit right.

Definitely more support than the 1080s. Good for lateral movements, lifting but if you wear orthotics and walk/run, I would go with the 1080s. Also, the toe box is much shorter.

Disappointed that the white/artic fox-shoe was smaller than the two tone gray/blue shoe I tried out first and returned because was ugly on me.

Good basic running shoe. They make my large feet look smaller. Love the muted grey and purple color (no worries about a white sole getting dirty immediately and thankful to have a normal not crazy flashy color).

I have several pairs of this shoe, but I'm always on the lookout for new colors in D width. The only issue with this shoe is that the shoelace on the left foot is shorter than on the right. This is an issue I've never encountered on this athletic shoe or any other.

The shoes are vert comfortable. That being said I usually wear an 8 narrow in New Balance and this time the 8 was too small in the toe box so I sized up to a 81/2 and that is a little big. But I have tried at least 5 pairs of shoes and these are still the most comfortable.

I ordered 8 N. They were too tight. I sent them back and got 8.5N. They are perfect.
