I LOVE My New Kicks!
I think I waited too long between my last pair of running shoes and my new ones, because the difference in experience is phenomenal. Maybe the foam sole breaks down faster? I'm not sure, this is a new concept to me with my last pair.My new kicks are super comfy. I'm not a runner, but a back pain patient. I pretty much live in a New Balance running shoe or a Mephisto Helen sandal. My trusty physical therapist wants me in a solid wide based sole for stability - check. Good arch support - check. (I also insert my custom orthotics from my podiatrist.) Fits my wide foot well in a wide size - check. Looking good! - check. Got on sale during Prime Days for a great deal - check. (I always purchase a pair of New Balance that lists at $140 or more for construction and durability. The support feels more solid.) Can throw into the washing machine for easy cleaning - check.These running shoes are super comfy and stabilizing, and help my back pain. I recommend.

Good for overpronation
This is my first pair of New Balance shoes after wearing Mizuno Wave Inspire with an orthotic for moderate over pronation for 13 years. I wanted to start a shoe rotation, hearing that helps prevent injury, so I threw these shoes into my rotation. I also wanted to try to run without my orthotic to take advantage of the newer shoe models and technology that is built into them. I appreciated the comfort and cloud-like feel of these shoes. They have good support, and provide some extra return when pushing off. They are lightweight and comfortable. They provide good stability, although I also purchased the Mizuno Wave Horizon as my second shoe in the rotation, and that shoe is much more stable. The color is nice and the fit is good for me, although I have a more narrow foot. Overall, I am happy with the shoes and recommend them for those with moderate overpronation.

GREAT SNEAKERS
They look great and fit very well. Sprained my ankle and these offer the extra support and balance I needed after getting out of the walking boot. Very nice for walking.

Pretty Good
Nice shoes that are pretty comfortable right out of the box. Took one star off as they are not really “breathable” and my feet get super hot in them. These were recommended by my doctor for plantar fasciitis. My feet still hurt after wearing them but I’m hoping over time they will help. Good traction walking around on our tile floors. Fit is true to size.

Perfect running shoe for me!
I have wide feet so it’s hard to find a good pair of running shoes. These Fresh Foam Vongis fit great and feel like I’m running on pillows. They are my short road run shoes. I had to buy 2 sizes up from my usual shoe size.

Best support ever!
These are the best sneakers I’ve ever owned. I have no more lower back ache when I’ve been on my feet all day. I bought every color and stocked up on the black and white..
