Not at all fresh foam

Hard. Not at all like the other fresh foam shoes. Loved how these looked so gave them a try, wish I didn’t waste money.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear the Fresh Foam Arishi v4 Tiralux cushioning felt much firmer than expected and did not provide the comfort you were looking for. If you'd like assistance exploring options, our Customer Care team would be happy to help.
My honest review

Great value for money! As a nurse, I appreciate how super lightweight and comfortable these are. They’re perfect for prolonged standing and walking, especially during long shifts. The size and fit are also perfect for me. Honestly, I’m already planning to buy another pair because I’ve been wearing them almost every day!

Sub par

I am always a 9w, these shoes are too big and the toe box alone is extremely wide. The fabric is too thin and poor quality, the toe box liners don’t fit properly, the shoe laces are extremely thin and cheap, and the fresh foam sole seems to be getting harder and less fitted with every shoe I order. Not happy. Will be returning when I get to a city that has a new balance store.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the fit was much larger and wider than expected, especially since your usual 9W size has worked well for you in the past. We also understand your concerns about the materials, laces, toe box construction, and cushioning, and our Customer Care team would be happy to review your experience and share your feedback with the appropriate team.

Cute but odd fit
Originally posted on New Balance US
Yes, I recommend this
I really liked the design, but the toe box felt wide while the heel felt narrow. I have slightly narrow feet, so I was surprised by the tight heel cup. They're very lightweight, but I returned them because of the odd fit.

Looks cute

This one is cute, comfortable, and neutral. The insole is removable, so it works well with my orthotics and is suitable for the gym. I also bought the Fresh Foam Arishi v4, which runs slightly bigger, while this one fits slightly smaller. One suggestion: the laces are not quite long enough to use the last set of eyelets. New Balance is definitely my favourite brand!

It really difficult for me to find a good sport shoe. The model need to be fit coz I'm 10 and look like an avatar foot and this one looks pretty on my. The comfortable step and model made my day every time I'm wearing them.

Runs small
Originally posted on Joe's New Balance Outlet
I always buy an 8 wide in New Balance. These are more narrow and fit tighter than my others. I would suggest going up 1/2 size.

So-so

They're OK, not great but satisfactory. My right big toe, which is straight, scuffs against the lowest leather banding & is sometimes uncomfortable. I hope that as the shoes break in, they will ease up.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the fit has been inconsistent, particularly with your right big toe rubbing against the lower leather overlay and causing occasional discomfort. We appreciate your comments and hope the fit becomes more comfortable with wear, and our Customer Care team is available if you'd like additional assistance.
Only wearing a couple of hours, very uncomfortable

Good tread, stylish, and easy to wear all day. If you like to put shoes on and forget about them for the rest of the day, try these

Nice, but...
Originally posted on Joe's New Balance Outlet
Yes, I recommend this
I like the color and style because I'm a New Balance fan. However, with this particular style, there's a plastic strip inside, right at the top of the tennis shoe. This rubs against my toe, making it a bit sore by the end of the day. I'm thinking that this added piece takes away from the foot space. I want to send them back, but the next size up would be too big. I don't know what to do...keep them or send them back?

So light and comfortable.

It is very comfortable, fits well, and I can walk distances that usually bother my 70+ year old knees and ankles.
