Review: Like walking on pillows that fit like a glove. - Right out of the box I was impressed with how good they look. The colors compliment each other and are very subtle and go with anything. Now for what I consider to be more important. I normally wear a size 11 and that is what I ordered. They run true to size and fit perfectly. I couldn't have gotten a better fit if I had gone to a store and tried them on. They fit like a glove with a roomy toe box but not too wide. I have found the traction to be good on all surfaces and not "sticky" like some of my other shoes on tile or concrete. Compared to other brands that I did check in stores, these are lighter or equally lightweight and much lighter than shoes I already own. I do not run much anymore for various reasons but for walking or even standing on hard surfaces for long periods they are great. They are very plush and comfortable. I did try on another brand that was supposed to have maximum cushioning and there was no comparison. These are so much more plush and soft I was actually surprised and I love the fact that they did not need to be broken in, great as soon as I put them on. As someone that walks at a pretty quick pace and is definitely a heel striker, these absorb shock completely when walking and would be good for running. The quality is what you would expect from New Balance, they are absolutely one of the top brands. Even though I haven't owned them long they show no wear. They still fit great and bonus is they are very cool and do not make my feet hot even after wearing for a long period. As I said, I don't run much but for really long walks or standing for long periods, these are great. These are the only shoes I own that after wearing all day my feet still feel as comfortable as when I have just put them on. No buyers remorse at all. I would buy them again and highly recommend them

Very comfortable and lightweight shoes. Great cushioning and fit, especially for long walks or running. Quality is excellent and worth the price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent choice
*by A***S on January 31, 2026*

I’ve been using the Fresh Foam X 1080 v14 for a little over a week now, and the comfort is unmatched. The cushioning is plush but still feels stable enough for long walks and daily runs. The upper material is breathable and fits true to size. If you're looking for a shoe that saves your knees and feels like walking on clouds, this is it. Highly recommended!
