New Balance Women's Cruz V2 Fresh Foam Running Shoe

These shoes looked adorable in the picture and I couldn’t wait to get them. Well, unfortunately, the majority of the other negative reviews are correct because they are just impossible to get on. I was so upset! There is no pull tab in the back of the shoe so it can’t stretch and there is also no tongue in the front to bend it forward. You literally just have a hole on top of the shoe to somehow magically squeeze your entire foot in which did NOT work for me. After contemplating buying a shoe horn (which seemed a bit daunting to have to use every single time I wanted to put these on) I finally managed to cram my foot in the whole shoe (and chipped my nail polish in the process) and realized they were super tight. I’m a true to size 7.5 and always have been and these were SO tight. So if you think the idea of shoving your foot into the top of your shoe is for you, make sure you go up at least a half size from what you normally wear. Oh, and buy a shoe horn.

I loved the look of this shoe, also the price was great. I didn’t like the fact that it doesn’t have a tab on the heel to help put the shoe on. Extremely difficult putting on. Also I’ve only wore the shoes maybe 10 times. I don’t work in them or run in them and they’ve already shown wear at the toe!! They’re super thin and have already got a hole at the end of one shoe and starting on the other shoe. They have a flatter bottom than I expected considering some other reviews said they were comfortable running shoes. I’ll not be buying these again and be reaching out to new balance to see if they have an alternative shoe avail to me.
