Somewhere in The Middle

2 months ago
Not the most comfortable if you plan on wearing these out for most of the day, but they definitely do provide more cushion than other brands. Build quality n the best, on the second day of me wearing these, part of the foam lining at the bottom started to peel/crack. I have extremely flat feet so it is always very hard to find a very comfortable pair of walking/jogging shoes without having to break the bank. These were decent and my very first pair of New Balances. I only got these because they were on sale, I don't think I will be purchasing another pair unless I see another sale for something hopefully better.

No, I do not recommend this product.

If you have a pronated step avoid this shoe.

I bought these because I walk a lot. Reviews seemed positive. Got them and gave them a 2 mile test walk. A little over a mile in and my foot was hurting and I noticed how bad my step was leaning inward. Tried them again with an orthotic, same result. Tried again with a brand new orthotic. Same again. I am stuck with these shoes and foot pain. I will wear them casually but not for extended walks.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Great starter shoe

Pretty much exactly what I wanted a beginner runners shoe to be. It’s not going to totally change your life, but my legs and joints already feel much better from the generous extra padding these give your feet. I usually stay under the 10 mile mark so couldn’t say if these are marathon worthy, but for the price point it’s hard to beat.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Durable and Fresh Look

Between steps or miles on concrete floors for 12 hour shifts, the comfort remains diligent. Big & Tall these shoes hold up to the weight distributed on them all day long reducing the foot and knee pain, allowing my body to last longer throughout the work week. They may be designed for other uses but there a savior in my application.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Best shoes on the market

The New Balance 680 Fresh Foam line of shoes are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I own several pair of V7 and V8 680s and the fit is perfect in both. Im just looking for a reason to purchase myself a pair of V9s. Please keep the 680 fit the same NB.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Had the 680v6's for over year and they were great. Bought the 680v9's 2 weeks ago and they have been wonderful. Extremely comfortable for everyday walking & during my training sessions. Have easily traveled over 10 miles in these already and they are great.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Decent for the price. Good not great.

Well made shoe though the insert is a little flimsy, with minor arch support. A bit narrower than some other brands this size. Squeaky at first - fixed with some powder under the insert. Fit is accurate. Could be a bit more breathable.

No, I do not recommend this product.
