As mentioned. I have been looking for a pair of new mizuno spikes for a long time and this was definitely a great buy for me. However, there was a blue pen marking on the side of the spike which was not a good thing but not a deal breaker nonetheless.

Review of Nike Air Jordan Prime 5 "Neon Pack" Mens Basketball Shoes
Only down side with all J's the front begins to wrinkle a little not a big deal. I did change to the black laces though and it definitely brought the shoe out more. I love them!
Buy Adidas Supernova Glide 5 Running Training Shoe
I run with Glide 5 for two marathon races, and I think it is the time to let it to retire. It perform perfectly between 50 mile and 250 mile, but after that, the cushion in the fore feet area is down, which hurts my feet. I use it until 300 mile, then switch to other new shoes and let it be my walking shoes. Another reason that I like it because it is quite wide. Btw, I run 20-30 miles per week.
Discount New Balance Women's W730 Running Shoe
Let me begin by saying I've been running with the NB WT10 shoe, and as much as I LOVE them, my feet get a bit tender from running on roads. I looked around and tried on several different minimalist shoes trying to find a good minimal feel without the tenderness I've been getting with the trail shoes. I tried on the Minimus Road, the Brooks Pure Connect and a few other I don't remember. The problem I had with all was it just felt like too much padding under my foot. I wanted protection without extra fluff. The second I put these shoes on I was in heaven. I read the few reviews available to see what others had to say and they all were really positive. I did read that most had to go up a size, I actually went down half a size to get the feel I wanted. The toebox is nice and roomy with a tight fitting heel. The shoes are very well ventilated. My only gripe as far as construction goes is the laces are really cheapo and I'll be switching them out. I also like how they aren't flashy shoes, I'm a plain jane kind of girl, I don't need neon shoes to be cool, I just want to get out there, do my thing and not draw tons of attention to myself. I love the design of these shoes.
I took them out for a run after buying them today. Just a 2-mile run because I'm slowly rehabbing an injury and these shoes just did it for me. I felt connected with the pavement and didn't even feel the tender spot on my foot until the end of the run.
I would not recommend these shoes for a heel striker. I run on my forefoot and have no issues with these shoes, but I bet for heel strikers they would be painful. I don't know if they would be good for someone wanting to transition because I made my transition in the trail shoes.
That's about all the important details I can really think of. I would definitely recommend these shoes, and will more than likely buy more pairs before New Balance screws it up with a newer model. I hope this review has helped. Happy running folks!
When I ran in them, they felt great! However, I knew right away I needed a 1/2 size larger if I was going to run in them all the time.
I ordered a 7.5 for my running shoes, and I love them. There's so much wiggle room in the toes width-wise that I never have achy toes after a run. I view these as my "step up" from minimal/barefoot shoes because while there's not a lot of cushion, there's still some.
I would suggest ordering true to size if you're using them for errands and daily wear, but if you intend to use these as running shoes, I'd go at least 1/2 size up, maybe a full size if you have long toes :)
**UPDATE** I have been running in these shoes for about 6 months now, and as one reviewer also stated the mesh is starting to come apart, right where the foot bends. However, it is just the top layer of mesh that has "worn" and the shoe is still very much usable, there is no hole all the way though... and looking at it, I don't think there will be. This has happened on both of the shoes I own, my running shoes are a bit worse than the other pair. This would NOT deter me from buying this shoe again.
Before these shoes, I tried a number of different shoes like Brooks Pure Connect, and Reebok Real Flex and a few others, and I feel these NB are light enough for me to carry on a 5-6 mile run easily without any pain in my calves, shins or ankles. I'm still very happy with these, and would for sure buy them again.
They are not that comfortable being there is little if any arch support. They are wide really wide, I have a wider foot than average and this was too wide for my foot. I can't imagine how it would fit a woman with a narrow foot.
I thought that the low price was because they were possibly last season's or somethingnot so they are just cheap.
I wore them less than a month and not frequently. Due to an injury I cannot run and I can't walk far. It's a good thing I didn't buy them thinking that they were a serious running shoewhat a disappointment. They are brand new and they already tore. I barely wore them, they aren't too tight and yet in a month or a bit more they already tore on the seam on top of the shoe. If I could get my money back I would.
They have NO support, they are ridiculously too wide, the laces are a creepy nylon that WON'T stay tied, and they tore in just over a month of limited use.
New Balance what happened? You used to be the only shoe that all my serious runner friends buy. When I was a serious runner I could alway depend on a high quality running shoe if it was a New Balance. Not with this shoe, they should have a disclaimerbuyer beware!

I love these shoes so much, I have two pairs in different colors, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE them both. I am a big NB fan, their shoes always fit my feet better than any other brand. I originally bought a pair just to wear around for daily use/errands and such. I really loved the style and color. When I first tried them on, I felt like the fit about a 1/2 size big, however I think that was just due to the roomy toe of the shoe. I almost always wear a 7.5 no matter what the style/designer. I bought my first pair in a size 7 and they fit great for walking around, running errands etc...When I ran in them, they felt great! However, I knew right away I needed a 1/2 size larger if I was going to run in them all the time.

Best Deals on New Balance Women's W730 Running Shoe
I run about 20-30 miles a week. Always run in a minimal shoe. These shoes are great. Roomy toe box and very light. The sole is very durable. I have had them for a few weeks and already put 100 miles on them. The sole still looks new. The upper is holding up. The laces are a little cheap and kept untying. Replaced them with a $2.00 pair from my running store. These have become my go to training shoe. You can fully feel the road. They are a very affordable option for people looking for a good minimal training shoe.Honest reviews on New Balance Women's W730 Running Shoe

The soles are separating from the foam material that they are glued to. This was the last straw, I have moved on to

I bought this shoe in charcoal/black for my 19 year-old nephew, size 13M, and in tan/black for my 49 year-old brother, size 11 1/2. Both say they are true to size and they like how they look. My brother said they are the most comfortable athletic shoes he's ever worn. I am very pleased that I got the shoes at a great price and both the guys are very happy with them. I'd buy them again.Best Deals on Skechers Men's Vigor 2.0 Sneaker
I bought these shoes from Sears for general purpose, running, walking in the park, some workout, casual sports etc. After using it for 3 days (yes, 3 days and about 4 hours each day) the sole has started to come off. Now that I took a closer look at the sole, it is definitely made of super cheap material and stuck using some kind of household glue. I've never come across such a terrible shoe that only lasted couple of days. This shoe has to be the epitome of worthless super cheap manufacturing!Honest reviews on Skechers Men's Vigor 2.0 Sneaker
These are some really comfortable shoes! They have great cushioning, I don't normally spend a lot of time on my feet, but for when I do these are really good. The size was accurate, I normally wear a 10.5 and that's what I ordered and they fit great. Haven't had them long enough yet to tell about durability, but I've had other Skechers and they've held up well. Overall, very pleased with the purchase and price.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Skechers Men's Vigor 2.0 Sneaker
I received these shoes about 2 weeks ago. Have worn them several times now and they are extremely comfy. Skechers are the only shoes I don't have to have arch supports added to the shoe. I can wear these for 8-12 hours and my feet feel great. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a great looking confy shoe that will last for a long time. I am ruff on my shoes and my last pair lasted me 3 years and I am still wearing them from time to time. The colors of this shoe are a good combination and match with almost whatever you were to wear. Also Can't beat the Amazon Price.

Brooks Women's Dyad 7 Running Shoes Reviews
I had been wearing the Brooks Addiction for years and thought I was "addicted." Then I found the Dyad, and realized that my orthotics and fused foot bones provided all the motion control I needed, and that the Dyad provided help for the slight supination that my surgeries and orthotics did not correct. I love the fact that Brooks shoes come in widths, as I definitely have a wide, flat foot. These are comfortable right out of the box, and they are my new fave. As running shoes are the only shoes my fixed feet can tolerate for any length of time, I wear them every day. The Dyad is sufficiently deep to accomodate my relatively bulky orthotic without making me feel like I am walking out of my shoes. And, I think the color is cool. Some might find it too bright, but I think it is great! I do wish, however, that Brooks offered this shoe in a variety of colors, because I would gladly buy another pair.
online is not easy as all shoes fit different. Thank you

My podiatrist diagnosed me with flat feet and metatarsalgia in my right foot. I was limping and in terrible pain caused simply by running around the house in bare feet and sandals. The shoe store he sent me to put me in this aqua/navy shoe, along with my temporary arch supports and these are like heaven on my feet. No kidding!! Nothing pinches, rubs, or slips. They are way more cushiony to walk in than my Easy Spirit walking shoes, and the style and color is both snappy and sassy! These are the best shoes I've had in years. Buy 'em!Best Deals on Brooks Women's Dyad 7 Running Shoes

I got these to wear around the house or for after a hike or around camp. I have a Salomon fetish Salomons are my preferred shoe and I own so many I've lost count. I ordered these a half size larger thinking I wanted something really easy to get on and off. I regret that decision and wish I would have ordered my regular size size it is harder to keep the back up on my heel being a half size larger. Since I only wear these around the house or camp I can live with my size error. I wouldn't wear these any where but at home or at a campsite too goofy looking.Best Deals on Salomon Women's RX Moccasin

I love my new trail shoes. The tongue of the shoe was a little different to get used to but it's great and stays in place. The heel is my favorite feature of this new shoe. I have great traction and it almost feels like cleats/spikes in the heel-once my foot lands i feel pretty solid. The mesh in the front of the shoe makes it very breathable. The sizing is a true fit. It took me a few runs to find the perfect sock for this shoe but now i'm in love with this new addition to my Nike family.

I have been looking for a super light weight mid shoe for some time and this fits the bill. Wide toe box and snug mid-foot fit feels good. This will be my first plunge into the minimalist area because I have very weak ankles and always had to wear hyper dunk basketball shoes or much heavier boots. Shoe go on and soon you forget you have them on. Nice aggressive but not imposing tread. I will update after I get out more on rough terrain but so far so great.Best Deals on Merrell Men's Trail Running Shoe Mid Cut Minimal Trail Shoe

They are very light...considering,and they lasted me about 14 monthsbefore I replaced them. Mostly due to walking up metal ramps on my toes ate the treds up under my toes.
If your like me lil "heavier" lil more active with them I find a heal support beneficial.
There's no difference in fit/size but this model has more mesh area which I expected to make them cooler. I hope someone takes note and send the right products to the customers or at least let them know about it in advance.
Highly recommended brand for comfortable working boots.
