I felt I had to write a review after I played tennis in these shoes last night and for the first time in about 15 years, my feet did not hurt! I know these are not court shoes, but I have Morton's toe/Morton's neuropathy, and even with prescription orthotics in my shoes (which help immensely) I still end up in pain after a certain time with all other shoes. I've now walked, jogged and played tennis in these in 100% comfort. I'm between a 6.5 and 7, but sized up to 7.5 per recommendations for running shoes. My foot is slightly wider than most, but not wide enough for a D. I purchased normal B and fit is comfortable. I went back and ordered a second. Lightweight and super comfy. Cute colors as well.

Fit was perfect and these shoes were very comfortable. Only problem was the color. The color labeled as gray online is actually a periwinkle. A weird shade that clashes with most clothing. Didn't care for the color so I am returning them.

Purchased these for my daughter, new to running, needs flexibility. I own this shoe as well, and it run hard speed work on the track and pavement. If you are partial to neutral , flexible shoes with light-weight but effective cushioning, Fresh Foam Tempo V2 is a great choice. Offered in multiple widths and colorways, this model flies under the radar compared to publicity of other NB shoes , but it runs fast and is excellent value for money.

I bought these for a spring trip to Europe. I was looking for a pair to wear sightseeing as well as walking on a treadmill. These fit the bill perfectly.

Love them. Have now bough three pair. They feel like I'm walking around with gloves on my feet. Plus they come in so many great colors!

I used them on the treadmill and in the HIIT Zone. They are holding up well on both. The color isn't friendly for the HIIT Zone :(

These are lighter and not as well constructed as the previous version. The edging on the toe box is stiff so unfortunately it presses into your foot when you walk. I kept them, but I really preferred the previous version. It was light, but still felt sturdy and had a vamp/tongue - the holes for the laces in this version have nothing underneath them but your sock.

I have always worn NB shoes, and never had an issue with the wide width options. These were very narrow compared to the Nergize shoes I bought last year. Had to return.

For myself, the tongue of the shoe is sewn onto a sleeve inside the shoe which means the front of the foot has to be narrow enough to get the foot into the shoe. My feet are too large for this shoe.

The copy indicated it was a gray sneaker. It turned out to be blue/lavender

I'm wearing right now a pair of New Balance shoes that I bought in 2019. They're beautiful, shaped beautifully with the wider curved front part of the shoe, a soft gray with pink soles. Wonderful! The pair I just bought can't measure up in any way to the pair on my feet right now. You have dumbed down your product. I've been wearing New Balance since 1980. All of the years since 1980 I have loved and bought over and over New Balance shoes. Now, I think I need to find a different athletic shoe company. New Balance stood out because they looked beautiful on the foot. No more. They now look ugly just like the Pumas, Reeboks, Nikes, and all the rest. By the way, can't you make a plain white shoe? Why do they have to be junked up with color stripes and other junk? Just plain white, please.

I got these sneakers a few months ago just for casual ware. I rarely run in them, but they managed to tear through the back within probably 10-15 low impact wears. This has never happened before!

I ordered a wide and these were plenty wide in the toe box but were much too narrow across the middle arch section of my feet. They hurt immediately. Will be returning.

I was optimistic and excited to try these shoes. I used to run in a tempo shoe by New Balance which has been discontinued. The first run in these shoes felt pretty good but every run after that I didn't like. There is a lack of structure to the shoe, I typically wear a neutral shoe but find I pronate in these. Unfortunately after three mid distance runs I've developed a foot injury.

Poor quality. Made my feet hurt so bad. Even the shoelaces are bad. I'm really disapointed.
