Review of New Balance Men's MR10v2 Minimus Running Shoe

Customer Ratings:

I have now put over 100 miles on these and wanted to wait till then to give a review.

First off going from the New Balance website they have a "see how it fits" guide. Since I have been running in MT10's and MO10's I plugged those into the calculator and it indicated I should go a half size larger. This at least in my case is not correct. It is almost to the point of being too big, but since I have already run in them I couldn't send them back but I wanted to make everyone aware that I believe you should get whatever your actual size is and not a half size larger.

Alright onto the shoe. As I said before I am coming from the 4mm drop trail shoe. I finally decided to get a set of road shoes since most of my running is on cement and asphalt. I was also having problems with my IT band on my left knee and figured my current shoes had over 800 miles on them so it was time to get a new set.

Pros:

Surprising amount of cushion for a minimal shoe

Super light

I love the soles of these shoes, I feel like I could trail run in them too

Cons:

I lost the loop on the heel, I used this to attach them to the outside of my gym bag

Indifferent:

I am not sold on the new tongue yet but it might grow on me

Not for wet running, you WILL get wet feet (not really a problem though)

As I said before, get your true size not a half size larger per New Balance's website.

Overall these are great summer/fall shoe. I am going to have to get something different for the winter, I may get another pair of MO10's or the MT1010's.

I have only ran about 10 miles so far but I love these shoes! They are super comfortable with or without socks and just enough padding to be a minimal shoe yet provide a little support with a 4mm drop from heel to toe. I've also used them in the gym on several occasions and they have performed great. The flat sole makes them great for squats where you need a solid grasp of the ground so to speak. Really like the color too!

This is an outstanding shoe for those looking to try out the minimalist style of shoe or those that are used to it. . Highly recommend for all age groups. I have had problems in the past with sprained ankles and I know I have strengthened my ankles with this style of shoe. It forces you to run the correct way without fear of rolling your ankles. All around excellent shoe and I'm thinking of picking up another pair because I love them so much! New Balance knocked it outta the park with this one!

I really like this updated version and it a big improvement over the older MR10 model. The only complaint I have is that small rocks get stuck in the big gaps in the sole.

At the exchange, the price is 89.99 which is fantastic however they were limited with the sizes.... I bought this and it was great! It got here on time and I love the comfort of it and the lightweight feel of this sneaker. Great for long distance running

This shoe was unfortunately large, even after trading them for a 2nd pair. Also, they wore out quickly. However, they were light, airy, and attractive if that counts!
