Not the real shoe. Came in a cardboard box and the shoes were more cream colored than gray.(updated) So I went to my local shoe store and took some comparison pictures. The first three are the shoes I received, the last 2 are the real shoes. There are differences as far as the height of the shoe. The shoe sent to me is a lower cut than the actual shoe. The last pic also has some differences circled. I’m about to take the shoes back to amazon right now. Refund Started

As always New Balance comes through on a made in U.S.A. running shoe. Ive had New Balance for years and theyve never let me down. My one issue is with the seller MilliKix. Their price changed several times within a day of being in my cart, then after I bought them they dropped literally 10 bucks. Just seems a little sketchy. I wrote to them and they just made an excuse that "our prices can change on occasion and other sellers prices will show as well". I know for a fact it was only their price that I was watching jump up and down within hours like the stock exchange, others actually stayed the same. I wouldnt trust MilliKix and wont be buying from them again.

The title of this review pretty much sums up my experience with this shoe. But to expand a bit, this is without a doubt the most comfortable and supportive running shoe Ive bought in years. Im an avid 3-4 mile a day outdoor power walker (with a few short sprints thrown in during walk) and exercise on a combination of sidewalk, street and packed gravel, and was having difficulty finding a shoe that would provide my aging feet and particularly right ankle sufficient support. Previously I used Asics Nimbus and Kayanno shoes and loved them, but the past several years I found them to be increasingly lighter weight at the expense of providing sufficient support. So I decided to shop around and after pretty extensive research bought these NB shoes. Glad I did. They are still fairly light weight - the pair weighs just 28 ounces, but they are not totally mesh like many shoes have become. But they retain enough mesh to provide great breathing and minimize heat, while providing the lighter weight. These shoes have a suade looking leather with the mesh which looks great as well. An added bonus, and in fact I bought another pair to kick around in for casual wear. Since wearing these shoes going on two weeks, I havent had a single instance of partial ankle turns on uneven surfaces and what recuring ankle pain I did have has almost totally gone away. They shoes come up slightly higher on the ankle than my Asics did - about to the lower level of the ankle joint which for me is perfect. Also they provide great heal support. Of course as normal with all shoes of this type, dumping the junk insoles that come with the shoes and replacing with a good insole is a must to maximize comfort and support. I personally wear fitted orthonics, but certainly not a must for most people. The soles are a bit stiff feeling compared to previous shoes, but I like this as well, as that is what helps provide the extra support. Overall, this a superbly designed and constructed shoe and a great buy for the price.
