Formerly a NuBalance Fan. Uncertain at the moment - hope to feel convinced....
NuBalance has always been a perfect fit for me - Wide foot, Sz 9 - good arch support, and protection from pronation. I found the brand when I was a runner. Now over 65, my foot is slightly longer, a bit wider. Although I looked closely at the photos of the new FuelCore Nergize, and understand that all of the pieces that support one’s foot are created with sophisticated new technologies, I was surprised at how “thin” the sole feels under my foot, and how unsubstantial the fabric that comprises the upper shoe. The lace area has no separate tongue, is one piece of fabric, and adjoins the two sides. I consider it an indoor exercise shoe. It works well for exercises I use with a Core Fitness Trainer with whom I work. She uses, and likes, a similar style/different brand. At this point, after 1 week of use, I remain to be convinced. For the price - under $75 - I am not complaining, but know I’ll require a more supportive hiking shoe to use when climbing/hiking the mountain on which we live.

Condensation seeping through
I wear a size 6.5D in Brooks and I eventually ended up in a size 7M in these and they fit great! They look super cool with the blue/green reflective band. One star dismissed only for the weird condensation from sweat under the band from my feet during workouts (see photo provided). Otherwise they feel lightweight and perfect for my beachbody MM100 workouts!

Best Shoe Ever
This is my second pair of New Balance tennis shoes. I’m 22 and just started getting into the gym more. When I tell you I have NEVER worn a more comfortable shoe. I get home and don’t even want to take them off. They mold to your feet and are very light. The only thing some people might not like is you can’t really wear ankle socks or it looks weird cause it’s so low on the ankle. But I don’t mind, I just wear no shows. I’m not sure if my feet are just getting bigger or if it’s the brand, but I ordered half a size up and they fit perfect. My friends made a joke that I was “old” for getting new balance, but if I’m old for wanting comfort on my feet then fine, call me old! I think they are so cute. I have this pair, and an all white pair. Best choice I ever made!

Material not durable
The media could not be loaded. I've always bought this style of new balance with the memory foam but decided to try out a different material on the top of the shoe. I'm a nurse and have worn these 3-4 days a week in the last 6 months. You can see the issue in the video. This is the same size I always get but I think from the friction of my toes it has created a hole.

Cute, comfy, not super supportive
Love the color! They’re attractive shoes. They really have no arch support but I haven’t needed that in the past anyway. Bought these for indoor workouts. Haven’t tried them other than just walking around the house for a bit to check the fit. Initially ordered the 7 but had to return for the 7.5 which fit better. The only thing I don’t like is walking around the house I feel a little rubbing under my lateral ankle bone on both sides. Don’t notice it at all during things like jogging in place, squats, lunges. But only did those just now as a test for trying on. Will update my review after doing a workout in them!

Tried 5X But Couldn't Get The Right Fit
TLDR: The standard shoe was too narrow and the wide was too wide despite trying on 5 different sizes.I first saw these shoes at DSW and was in love. I’ve never seen such cute patterns from a mainstream sneaker brand, so I was excited to get my first pair.I initially bought a 6.5, which was fine with a thin sock, but too tight with anything thicker. So I sized up to a 7, and then bought a 7 Wide on Amazon. Both were too narrow in the toe box, and the wide was too big everywhere else. I then tried a 7.5 and 7.5W. While the 7.5 was still a bit narrow, the 7.5W were simply too big. So in spite of loving this stylish shoe, I just couldn’t find the right fit for my feet.That said, I noticed several reviewers stated that these shoes run small, but in my experience, they run narrow. I could have gotten away with ordering a 6.5 or 7 since the length of the shoe wasn’t an issue for me. However, I didn't feel confident that the fabric would give over time, so I had to return them.Hopefully standard brands will consider widening their toe boxes in the same way that barefoot and minimalist shoes do, since feet tend to widen and flatten with age.

Run Small
These definitely run small! My wife is normally a 7.5/8 in regular shoes and an 8.5 in tennis shoes. After reading mixed reviews about sizes, she ordered the 8.5 hoping it would be right. WRONG! These run a half-size small and are a tad-but narrow. She has a semi-wide foot and is very flat footed. After returning the,, the 9 she needed was out of stock so we had to purchase elsewhere. Once she got the right size, she loves them. She did replace the insole with one that she needed. The original insole was a little stiff. She doesn’t use these for gym shoes, only as casual errand shoes. If you want a good workout shoe, pick a different shoe. If you’re looking for comfortable shoe to run around town in, these are good.

Great shoes. Order up!
Love these shoes. Needed an inexpensive shoe for my HIIT style workouts that would protect my feet and ankles and this does the job. They aren’t the most stylish shoe, I bought the white and they are the brightest white I’ve ever seen. But it’s not important to me for what I use them for. I went up a half size based on reviews and I could have easily went up a full size. I wear extra thin socks and I think I may be stretching them out but it I had to order again I’d go the full size up. Other than that good quality very light weight shoe. I highly recommend watching the price because I bought at $50 and a week or two later now writing this review they are listed at $40 which is annoying

Best shoe I’ve ever owned!
I bought these because I work 12-13 hours per day in a congregate care setting and I’m constantly on my feet. I was wearing the other brands like Nike and Puma and my feet, ankles, back and hips were so so sore. I have a lot of back issues (bulging disc, degenerating disc disease) and joint issues (arthritis, inflammation etc) and I have fibromyalgia. Every day, my feet would start hurting an hour into my shift. The first time I wore these New Balances, my feet were completely fine the entire day! My hips, ankles and back were so so much better! I absolutely recommend these for anyone!! 25 stars if I could! Lol

Fab trainers
Great fit, snug but has give - extremely comfortable and great to walk and workout in whether HIIT or strength training. Shipping took a while but definitely worth the wait as the all white look amazing on.

Love the look of the shoe but, sizing is off
I LOVE the look of this shoe but, I have wider feet so as soon as I put it on, it makes the mesh push out over the sides of the shoe. I don't like how it looks like this and can imagine over time and with stretching this would be more prominent. I would say... If you don't have wide feet - these are probably a great shoe. They were comfy when I put them on a really wanted them to fit well but, just don't work with my feet. Bottom line, if you have wide feet, these likely aren't the shoe for you :(.

Runs a little small
Definitely order either a full or half size up. I have always consistently been a narrow 8 in running shoes, but in these my toes were snug against the end of the shoe. Dissapointed there, but otherwise the shoes are very lightweight and great for the narrowness of my feet. I am however not sure how sturdy they are. I get the feeling they may not last longer than a year or 2 with everyday use, as the shoes don't have much to them to protect against wear in key areas.

Great gym shoes!
I love these shoes so much. They're very attractive and I love the reflective detail. I was worried about the sizing as everyone in the reviews has pretty much said these shoes run small. When I got them, they looked tiny! But once I put them on, the sizing was actually perfect. They don't slide around or slip off when I'm working out, and I find them really comfortable as well. I can definitely see how this may not work for everyone, and I doubt I could wear these shoes with a pair of thick socks - but they fit great with a pair of your regular athletic socks (be sure to wear no-shows or else they look kinda weird because of the way the shoe is cut). Recommend!
