Everything about these shoes were perfectly thought out. Starting from the bottom, The treads have good grip. The treads are in no way showy, but that's a good thing. In particular, I noticed more mass on the inner ball of my foot, when compared to my old sneaks. The added mass gives each step a little more pop an pep. The foam is soft, but not spongy like newer addidas shoes: once again, a plus.The mesh is a pearl color in person. I'm not worried about them getting too dirty because it's not an optic white that shows dirt too easily. The gold flecks are tactile and sewn on. Finally the shoe laces are a little strechy which allows easier insertion. You won't be able to mash your foot in these and just magically slip them on, but they're not difficult by any means. Once on, they feel like a light hug all around the foot.Size is perfectly in line with the last New balance pair, the 520 V3I normally take a size 9, but I ordered these in a 9 1/2 due to my past experience with New Balance and they are still a little small. Since these are my gym shoes not my running shoes I can still wear them without much of an issue, but if I used them for running I'd consider a larger size.I was a bit worried about the fit of the shoes, usually wearing 8.5 to 9 depending on the shoe. Got em in 9 and they fit pretty well. A bit snug, but it's still comfy to run and exercise with, nothing really uncomfortable. Nice design, lightweight.I like these shoes so much I'm going to get another pair as a back up. The fit is great and my favorite workout shoe by far.the black sole is awesome and shoe looks un scuffed because of it.I had no issue with the sneaker itself other than it wa much more narrow than expected.The sneakers were too tight. I had to return them.These are the most comfortable New Balance shoes I’ve ever owned. Super light and breathable and super comfortable! I am considering purchasing the exact same out again. Great job guy and good price too!niceNice shoes but way too small for 9-1/2 when other New Balance 9-1/2 is 100% fitHave had about a dozen pairs of new balance shoes and normally a half size bigger is more than adequate. This style is on the limit of me sending them back for a bigger pair. Could be classed as a tailored fit both in length and width.I likeEs la primera vez que me compro unos deportes de esta marca y puedo decir que son estupendos, lo que si recomiendo es que os cojais medio número más minimo, yo tengo un 44 en otras marcas y con los New balance tuve que pedir un 44 y medio, por lo demás super contento1 año y medio de uso y puedo asegurar que son resistentes. Las uso básicamente en indoor unas 8-10 horas semana para amt/eliptica/spinning/cinta, también unas 2-4 horas semana running outdoor en asfalto y es una zapatilla muy completa con rebote, agarre, transpirables y ligeras (para su precio). Han perdido algo de forma en la suela interior pero siguen dando un rendimiento adecuado. Para menos de 90 Kg zapatilla muy versátil y resistente.Recepción antes de lo previsto. La caja que acompaña viene golpeada y "sucia". No trae logotipo alguno de la marca. Ya he tenido varias zapatillas de esta marca y en esta ocasión me he dejado guiar por la tabla de tallas. Resultado: zapatillas justas. Va a ser difícil echarme a correr con ellas sin lastimarme los pies. Por lo demás, tal cual las fotos que se veían.
