Shoe lightweight and seems to be good on the court for for quickness and stopping ability and the fact that it comes in a color and a size 15 helps to never had shoes that had color in them in 15 and 16s great choice

Pretty comfortable. Good construction. Not a top notch running shoe but gets the job done. Probably best for daily trainer. I really like the wide toe box too

Not using as a running shoe - wear the 1080 for that. I just wanted a comfortable shoe for everyday use that didn't cost $150. The Evoz v2 (at 44% off) fit the bill on both accounts.

For my next marathon (Houston) I've been looking to try and not break the bank with expenses. That said I still wanted to do a two-shoe rotation and was in search of a an easy session shoe. There were very few reviews on this shoe that I could find online, but previously running in 1080s I noticed the bottom looked the same and at the sale price I figured I'd give these a shot. They're definitely not a flashy shoe and are a couple ounces heavier than I'm used to but they do have the ability to pick up the tempo (would not suggest for speed days). Think of this shoe as a watered-down 1080. The heel lockdown isn't as good as I have with the 1080, upper if completely different but not bad, and the foam feels slightly less responsive, but for the price I'd give it a thumbs up. Make sure to go at least a half size up from what you would normally get.

I always buy New Balance shoes, because they are very comfortable. This shoe is no exception. I bought this shoe for general purpose walking, although it can also be used for running. Based on user reviews, I bought the Extra Wide width, and I'm glad I did. If I purchased a smaller width the shoe would have been too tight. In addition, I do not like heavy shoes, and I find the weight of this shoe to be ideal.

These shoes were comfortable and worked well for walking. Disappointed in the wear though, as the side of the shoe has separated from the sole after 5 months. I wish they were more durable.

Shoes are very comfortable , good fit. I only have one problem both shoes lean towards outside leverage. I don't know if I got a bad pair or if this is the design only uncomfortable part of shoe.

Oh, these are shoes? They feel like cut out cardboard. I bet they won't last a year. I'm a New Balance guy. Missed the mark on these!

This feels narrower than I’d like so I returned it and settled for Asics Kayano.

I use them to walk. I have four pair of FOAV's and I love them. While this last pair were ok, they didn't compare to my last purchases

I got this pair after failing to get the shoe I wanted: Fresh Foam 1080V11. I have a less common 4E width, which I can't find in my local shoe stores, and it has to be ordered on line. I have used the Evoz 2 for about 4 weeks now for my long distance running practices. It is adequate, but the fit is not as good as with 1080V11, which I used for my marathon run May 1, 2022. I have saved that 1080v11 pair for another marathon attempt, having failed to get a replacement for it. If it is available again I would buy another 1080 pair over the Evoz2 in the future.
Overall, I have been very pleased with the shoes I have bought from New Balance: running, tennis and walking. With respect to running shoes I have noticed improvements over the years, especially from the perspective of my size (9.5, 4E), culminating in a very good fit with 1080v11.

Initially loved the shoes. They are very comfortable...but the toe box started coming apart after only 2 months of light wear.

I feel as though the cushioning on these less expensive sneakers is not as good as the more expensive sneakers from NB such as the 1080’s.

I bought a pair of M3X70SH1 New Balance Fresh Foam shoes about 8 weeks ago and I liked them so much I decided to order another pair of size 11 Fresh Foam shoes since they didn't have the x70sh1 any more I tried the Evoz v2. unfortunately these are a little smaller, and don't fit. I need that exact size, because I wear them with an orthopedic arch support that was custom made for size 11. I wish there were a way that I could know which size 11s match the M3X70SH1.

There is a bump on the side which is very uncomfortable. It pokes into your sole and feel. This is very diff from the previous versions of new balance shoes.
