Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam X Vongo v5

After walking 5 miles the shoes fit perfectly. A little narrower than my other NB shoeas.

I recently purchased a pair of New Balance shoes and I must say I am highly impressed with my purchase. As someone with a wide foot, it can be a challenge finding shoes that fit comfortably. However, these New Balance shoes are specifically designed for individuals with wider feet and they fit like a glove! The shoes are extremely comfortable and provide excellent support, making them perfect for long walks or runs. The cushioning is just the right amount, not too soft or too hard. The materials used are of high quality and appear to be very durable. The design is also visually appealing, and I've received compliments on their look. I highly recommend these shoes to anyone who has a wide foot and is looking for a comfortable, well-fitting shoe. They are worth every penny and I will definitely be purchasing more in the future!

The best running shoe for probation control and comfort

Very comfortable and well-fitting.

I bought these to wear on vacation. I knew I would be doing a lot of walking on cobblestones and other hard surfaces. I walked 12-15K steps daily for 10 days and my feet held up well wearing these shoes. Lots of cushion and support. I recommend them! I have wide feet and these worked well-no rubbing or blisters.

size and fit were perfect

The fit was too stiff for me. I wanted a shoe comparable in comfort to the New Balance 1080. This fit length/width the same, but the sole and arch was too stiff.

I ordered these because I read reviews that compared this NB style to the 1080 style. The reviews I read let me know that they were similar in fit, etc. I found these much stiffer and the arch too supportive compared to the NB 1080's. The color and fabric was exactly what I wanted, but the comfort was just not there for me. It's back to 1080's for me!

Too narrow in the toe, not the same as Vongo V4, or the version before that.

Too narrow in the toe. Not the same fit as Vongo V4, or the model before that.

These are too narrow in the toe. Not the same as the last two model of Vongos I had.

The shoes fit well, but would not recommend them for heavier runners, they don’t seem as cushioned as other stability shoes. Also New Balance doesn’t seem to put much effort into midsole tech, they seem to bottom out very quickly ( usually after about 100 miles)!

The shoe appeared well built but had several detractors. The heel was too tight/snug. The bridge/last was too tight causing impressions across the top of my foot and discomfort.

I’ve been wearing Nikes for a long time. Always been a bigger guy. I’m now 43 and taking control of my life and working out and eating better. I noticed when I did cardio, my knees and hips would hurt. Figured it was age. Wrong. I went this am to the gym and wore the New Balances and wow. I’ll never wear Nikes again. These are a game changer. So soft but great support. I’m a Nee Balance fan from here on out

Great shoe; very comfortable.

Shoe is great but a bid narrow when compared to my other New Balance shoes.

The New Balance Vongo shoe fits well and is quite comfortable. Something I expect from New Balance.

This is my third pair. I love them

Much narrower than other new balance fresh foams 2e. Very tight!

Really like the look and style of this shoe, but I think “they” forgot that they were supposed to be wides. My foot was throbbing while sitting.

The quality of this show has changed substantially. They lasted less than 3 months-at $165. I do walk a lot, but these shoes used to last at least 6 months,

Huge disappointment. I had the v3s before this pair. Much better shoe. The v5s are too narrow in the mid-foot area. Please fix this issue if a V6 is produced.

I had no idea the white mesh would be filthy black in 10 wearings. Mind you, not running walking or trail. Just gym. Avoid all mesh uppers at all costs.
