Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080v14

They were too narrow. Sent them back but they did feel good on the bottom of my feet.

12 Narrow. This is my normal size, but these shoes felt much wider--perhaps because the material is very flexible.

wrong size

I ordered what I thought was navy and I wanted a navy sneaker. What I got was a royal blue color. I probably would’ve kept it if it was navy

These shoes were shipped without a box and seemed used. The shoes did not fit well. I felt unstable.

I really wanted to like these shoes, they are comfortable and fit my narrow foot. BUT, after wearing them for a month, there is so much cushioning that I find they throw off balance. There is no "feel" of the ground, they have a rocking motion that throws me off. One minor warning - I picked the light gray color. They always look dingy, not white, not gray.

The heel of the left foot was too wide for my narrow foot--in spite of the fact that the shoes were indeed a narrow.

Ordered the black and the toe box was too narrow. Oddly I bought the sky blue color from Zappos a few months ago and the toe box was perfect. I love them, which is why I ordered the same shoe in black. New Balance must have poor manufacturing quality. Black pair sadly was returned.

Toe box was narrow

Very Bulky for my lady like foot but very comfortable

The shoe was wide enough, and I liked that aspect. But with the cushion effect, and the rounded heel, I felt that it was pushing me backwards. And I didn’t feel that the stability was there.

These v14 are narrower than the v13 and not as cushioned as the previous model. My pinky toe gets numb after 20 minutes running.

These new balance shoes were just too “clunky” for me. I have several sneakers of this brand that look and feel better for my problem feet. I am not a runner so I can’t speak to that, but just walking in them didn’t work for me. Zappos has the best selection of shoes and it’s so easy to order and return. Thanks Zappos!!

I had a pair of these in v13 that I wore until they could be worn no more. In this version, the support feels off, like it's in the wrong spot for my foot, the ankles are stiff and constraining, and my feet hurt after wearing them for 30 minutes. I don't feel the cushioning in the shoe like I did with the 13s. Sadly, I tossed the box and wore these outside. I am already looking for a replacement.

The toe area is uncomfortable. The top of the shoe squeezes down onto the top of the toes. 1080v14 doesn't fit like prior NB shoes.
