While the price point may be on the higher side, the overall quality and comfort justify the investment for those who prioritize foot support and a stylish look in their everyday shoes.

Love this sneaker. It fits perfect, comfortable and like walking on air.

Comfortable, perfect fit, and stylish. My go to sneakers any day of the week.

These are so comfortable for daily wear! I have tons of tennis shoes, but for stability and comfort, these are the best... and they are cute as well xo. I have a Very narrow foot, and most shoes are wide on me... these I can tightened up enough and they do not look wadded or bulky. These could fit up to a bit wider foot as I feel like they have a broad base foundation/sole; however, they do not look bulky or disproportionate as some seem to have entirely Waaayy too much of a rubber sole. I'm not a runner, so I can't attest to how they would feel on the track or out in the field... but they do have some arch support, they are flexible, breathable and so nice.

First my subjective gripe: I could not tell from looking at the pictures but the toes of this shoe turn up at an exaggerated angle like genie shoes when you are not standing in them. Like sitting with my legs crossed (ankle up resting on other knee) and seeing the shoe from the side the rocker bottom is extreme at the toe and with the wide toe box, they look like dutch clogs. I absolutely do not like that look but if you are a clog fan then you might find that a plus. They also look huge. When I lifted them out of the box I was sure I was sent the wrong size, but no, that's just how they look.I imagine they designed the severely upturned toes for running, to roll off the toes easier, but I don't see why they needed that strong of an upturn. It ruins the look of the shoe for me (especially in combo with the wide toe box). But the do look normal when standing in them, as you can't tell with the toes bringing the tips of the shoes down to a normal profile.Now for the good.I have occasional plantar fasciitis from wearing flat cheap shoes from the local big box for the last few years, so I wanted a good walking shoe to give me support to relieve that. I walk the dog daily and also walk on the treadmill, sometimes jogging on it for short periods, but not a runner per se and can't speak to how they are for runs. But they are comfortable for walking and have reduced my pain from about an 8 to maybe a 2. I've only had them a few days so I expect the PF to go away completely now that I have some good shoes with decent support.That said, one thing I've noticed is that after walking less than a mile, my lower hamstrings (just above the backs of my knees) start to tighten and hurt, as do my calves. This from the design/drop of the shoe I imagine. But assume this discomfort will go away once those muscles strengthen.Bottom line: To me personally no sneaker is worth $175 (what I paid with tax) as I am guessing any shoe with decent support would relieve PF. But I wanted to make sure to get at least one really good pair for exercising so we'll see how they hold up. They do take some breaking in but they are comfortable with good cushion and support. But might try something else next time that doesn't look like a clog from certain angles. Am keeping them though because I do think they are good for my feet and I will wear them walking and on the treadmill.

I run 5-15 miles a week and these shoes are super comfortable. Nice wide toe box(although I did order a wide). Decent colors. Great for runners

I loved this shoe. It felt so perfect on my foot but it was too snug. Unfortunately, the sizing for this shoe is strange. I usually wear a 7.5 but the 7.5 was toooo big and wide and then I ordered this 6.5 because I read to size down and its too small. 7 will be perfect I hope.

New balance makes exceptional sneakers. I have plantar fasciitis. These sneakers are supportive and very comfortable. My feet are very happy. I love these sneakers.
