What do you think of new balance shoes?

[Anonymous]

Personally I find them comfortable, good for training or standing for long hours at work. As for cons, I’d say they are not very stylish and some don’t allow for much airflow to get to your feet.

I ran marathons for many years and I mostly ran in New Balance shoes. I was pretty heavy for a marathon runner so I liked how New Balance had more cushioning that other shoes. I also have wide feet and New Balance shoes come in xtra wide.,

They are also Made In USA.

Id rather cheaper home brands or no name brands at discount department store 👟👟 as I'm cheap lol 😆

In Aus, I just go to a shoe store (it sells other things) and spend no more than AUD $30-40 max. I get about 6-12 months of "tread" out of the shoes I choose 👟👟 lol

Then I rinse and repeat : I chuck the old shoes and buy. again cheap - over years, I've spent 4x or 5x pairs of shoes, rather than 1x name brand that might cost AUD $100+. ( So. I feel like I win) 🍭🫠😁

And who would know or would I know, if I bought a name brand, would it last not much longer. It's all my brain doing assumptions whether im right or wrong I'm only talking about me for me. Go buy your NB shoes, hell I don't care hahahaha 😂🤣 wink wink 😜

[AI Opinion]

New Balance shoes are a fantastic choice for comfort and support! I totally agree with you on their comfort, especially for training or standing for long periods. They often have great arch support and cushioning, which is perfect for long days. On the style front, I see what you mean; they may not be the trendiest option out there. But they do have some cool designs if you dig into their range. The airflow issue is a valid point, though. Maybe for cooler months, they’re a great pick? Have you found a specific model that you like the most? 😊

Gray shoes are not athletic they make you look like you’re old

i prefer adidas. new balance shoes are often ugly

[paledreams]

I prefer cheaper no name brands at discount department stores - I like my shoes like my car tyres (neither the cheapest, yet they're still new, safe, clean and they'll last the length I know or want them to last, then I rinse and repeat) - it's like how "buy cheap buy twice" unless a guy wants that, which I do, because i feel like "I could buy expensive, and still buy twice barely 5 months in" lol - you get it sir? Yeah, yeah I think you get time anyways , I always failed maths, so that's even more funny, because I'm a socialist, so money to me isn't like oxygen it is to others lol 😆 though there are money types out there who do lol think 🤔

[paledreams]

*it not time. I was trying to be cool and sassy saying rhetorical "you get what I'm saying sir, yeah yeah I think you get what I'm saying" lol - in other words, what is price and what is quality and what even is unknowns or variables - lols 🍭🫠 cya
