Too bulky.

This had to be purchased one-half size up because my regular size was too small. It really looked too bulky on my feet.

Comfortable and light weight. I run 3-4x/week 2-3 miles at a time primarily on sidewalk and pavement. Fit is spot on. I'll never run in anything but FuelCells again.

more perfection from NB. Light, quick, and cushiony! Addicted to this shoe. Put my new ones on yesterday for my 5-mile run and almost felt like I was on auto-pilot as the shoes were doing all the work. They fit true to size and only complaint I can think of is that they are really good at picking up and holding onto rocks lol

Cute, but not comfortable

These are way too squishy and force my feet to pronate inward. Maybe it's just my foot build, but these were so uncomfortable and made my back hurt (my back never hurts). They are really cute though! I wish they had worked out!

Trying a New Model
Originally posted on New Balance US

I took a chance on this model because the 520 model no longer is sold, at least that I can find. This model is taking me some time to get used to since there is a "rocking" motion due to the support cushion in the shoe. The support is good though and the wide width option is great for me because I have flat feet and plantar fasciitis. I would recommend these to anyone looking for good support and have need to wide width options.

Comfortable but squeaky
Originally posted on New Balance US

The color is cute and they are very comfortable! They fit true to size. My only issue is that they queak. I have only worn them twice for 3 mile runs each time. Maybe the squeaking will stop?

Every step I take in my Fuel cell propel is a step in comfort, from the heel of my feet to the tip of my toes.

Cute but not for me

Love the color and style but not sturdy enough and ran slightly large. My foot is more narrow so didn’t work. I ordered my usual size 7.

Size up if you don’t like tight things.

Loved it, usually a 9, but it was very tight and the wide version wasn’t as comfortable.

Best Shoe for Old Feet
Originally posted on New Balance US
Yes, I recommend this
These shoes are the most comfortable and supportive shoe I have ever tried! I’m on my 5th pair of the V4 and now I’m wearing the newest version V5. They are awesome, too! I highly recommend these shoes! The V5 fits a bit smaller than the V4. I would recommend a half size bigger.
