New Balance Women's FuelCore Nergize V1 Cross Trainer

I had been wearing Brooks running shoes for a few years, but after the last few pairs kept wearing holes over the toe area I needed a change. These shoes are fantastic, especially for the price. They are true to size, and they have just enough stretch to them to keep them comfortable even if you have swelling. The other great thing about these shoes is how light they are. I’m pretty sure they weigh less than some flip flops I own.

I bought these because most athletic shoes really bother my bunion, and I thought these would be perfect since the fabric allows the shoe to conform to my foot. After using them a couple times, I noticed that my feet would start sliding inwards while walking, so it would feel as if I was slipping off the shoes completely. To add to that, I showed these shoes to my podiatrist, and she immediately said that as an overpronator, I should not wear shoes like this because it will offer my feet no support. No thanks. Returned these quickly after that.

I have the worst feet. Ive returned so many. Amazon must hate me. I largely live is SAS which are sooo expensive and are not the most attractive shoes. Ive had reasonable luck with Ryka sneakers and insoles. My most recent pair had worn out when I went wild and tried these out. I dont know how theyre so perfect but they ARE. The tops of the sneakers are accommodating to my big toe that pops up a little. I dont know why the arches of the shoes dont hurt my super tender plantar fascia but they dont. They arent high arches or anything but the shoes just... fit and give really nicely. And they look good! I dont even have my insoles on them. I wish I could find shoes like this that look like dress shoes. Ive bought a second pair and am getting a third for Christmas. Ive never owned three pairs of the same kind of shoe in my life. Im an 81/2 W and theyre true to size on me. I can understand if you might want to size up a half size but I find them to be a little glove-like. I can wear sock with them and they started a little stiff but, I admit, with having such bad feet and not being able to wear any sort of summer shoes, I have worn these sockless and they look pretty cute.

First these really are adorable. Extremely lightweight. You can feel the breeze through them. Problem is I bought them for a trip to Disney. We walked an average of 7 miles per day. These were not nearly sturdy enough for that. You could feel every crack and bump you went over. My feet were killing me after an hour. Luckily I had another pair of ASIC running shoes with me. I only wore them to the Merry Christmas Party and that was it. I also bought the children’s version for my daughter (age 9). And she said the same thing and she wears New Balance all the time. They are good for day to day stuff but not for significant walking.

These are slim looking on the foot and very flattering. They are also like wearing marshmallows--super squishy with almost zero real support, sort of like a cute, athletic slipper. I am a runner and I would NEVER run in these or even work out in them, there just isnt enough substance to the construction. They are definitely fashion shoes, but I did wear them on a trip to Europe and walking around Amsterdam, they were reasonably good for cobblestone streets, hard floors in museums, etc. I found that they run small, I am typically a 6 1/2 in Asics, Nike, etc. and needed a 7 in these as they were plenty wide, just short in length. For what they are, I do like these, but took off one star for flimsy construction. For the price, they will not hold up as long as they should.
