After a week, the insides started to wear down. After a month, the shoes were painful to wear. Very low quality. I'm not even a very active person, so they would probably be unwearable after two weeks for someone who is.

This is not the same cut/size/form as other Arisha V4s so it does not fit my foot as the other cut does. I got the raincloud this time and it is different than the white/reflection. The other fit is perfect for me!

Hurt my feet to walk in these shoes. I usually buy 2-3 pairs at a time due to my size. Wasn't able to send back. My only pair of New Balance that weren't comfortable. Will continue to buy from Zappos and New Balance. Just not this style

Size and fit were fine. Speakers have zero support and feet hurt after wearing these shoes for a while.

Wore them 4 times. Threw them in the garbage. Horrible soles. Made feet ache.

Previously had Arishi v3 10.5 4E and they were like a dream. Loved them so much. Just got the 4E a few days ago and it’s a night and day difference. There’s absolutely no arch support and the shoe feels even lighter. Not sure what they were going for but I’m highly disappointed.

The sole and heel cup are too thin and soft. Provides minimum support. Runs a little narrow.

No cushioning at all in footbed – very stiff, like walking on stone. Barely any arch support at all. Ankle dip digs into ankles (doesn't go low enough to make room for ankles! - a major problem with New Balance shoes in general.) Very flimsy upper body with no cushioning there either. Whole shoe’s not worth more than $20, and is essentially unwearable.

Like the lightness and cushioning. Greatly disappointed with the ability to last. Fabric ripping after one summer season, didn’t wear during the winter.

These fell apart in 3 weeks. Terrible shoe. I ordered two pairs and both had a huge hole on the outside after less than two weeks. After three weeks the shoes were unusable. I have worn new balance for 20 years but am looking for a new brand after this experience. These pictures are of different pairs of shoes and I have worn a 4e shoe for years. New balance quality has steadily deteriorated.
I'd also recommend:
Hell no

One of the shoes developed a hole on the side after a couple times wearing. The shoes have not held up well.

I use a true 9.5 with every other company I've purchased from but not through NB. The width is especially off. For someone that uses extra wide or 4e this shoe is definitely not wide enough at all. Feels like normal width and not even to be considered wide much less extra wide.

The left shoe fits comfortably but the right shoe is super tight across the top of my foot.
I wore them hoping it would stretch or break in but that wasn't the case.

Very cheaply made shoes.. I bought shoes for the same price from different brands and the quality was way better and I'm not even very picky..

I had previous really liked other shoes that were fresh foam. There does not feel like there is any foam in the bottom of these. It felt like I was walking on bricks. The material was also cheap. Stay away, spend the extra $$ and get something better,

I ordered an 8 wide. This shoe ran a half size too big. It was very soft and had no structure or support. It's a nice looking shoe but didn't work for me.

Pinched my inner foot from wiring at the base of the shoe. Had to return as they hurt my feet.

Material used in uppers too thin. Laces pull right through to put unnecessary/unwanted pressure on feet. Tongue is too thin and too narrow. Love my NB running shoes, however, cannot recommend these and would not buy another pair. Would love a credit for these to apply to another pair of my much better constructed NB running shoes.
