Perfection for narrow feet!

Perfection for narrow feet!
I had to return a pair of running shoes and was just about to give up on finding the right shoes for my odd feet. My feet are extremely narrow which makes it difficult to be sized. Adding to having slim feet, I also wear a size 11. My first purchase was a pair of Propet One running shoes. I was recommended that brand by someone who said they carried narrow sizes. Upon receiving them, I tried them on immediately because it’s not common to find anything in narrow! Much to my disappointment, they were so wide that I could shove both of my feet into one shoe!So, back to my new New Balance purchase. I ordered to Monday and received them on Thursday. I tried them on and they fit like a glove! That’s right, these shoes were made for my feet! The cushioning is perfect and the arch support is just right for me. The colors are so cute and vibrant, so that’ll make these fun to wear. It came with two pairs of laces, I chose the black with white stitching because one plastic threader is pink and the other is yellow. Who doesn’t love neon!?! Anyway, I’m completely happy with my purchase. I wish that someone told me how awesome New Balance shoes were. The advice would’ve saved me from the hassle of the constant purchases and returns. Did I mention how much I love these? Maybe I did, just had to put that out there again. 😉

This is the second pair of the same shoe I have purchased.
New Balance women’s 680 v 6 running shoe.
This shoe is very comfortable for exercise and daily use.
It is true to size for both length and width.
My first pair lasted me about 9 months before a small wearing open of the material on the inside at the top heal/Achilles area.
I am still using my old pair for daily non exercise use as the souls are still in great condition and look good.
I used them for walking and jogging both indoor and outdoor use.
My average use is 10 miles at 4 to 5 days a week (sometimes more)
I can’t say if it is recommended by the manufacturer but I was also able to machine wash them a couple of times without an issue (though I recommend no additional items in the washing machine and air drying only), and they came out as good as new.
Overall I found them comfortable, durable and reasonably priced.
I would definitely recommend them and purchase again if they are available in the future.

Obsessed with the color!!! Much more bright and bold in person. Love it. Fairly comfortable. A good workout shoe, I’m not a distance runner or anything. They don’t seem very wide fit. I just tossed my old pair of size 8wide NBs not sure of model but those were amazing. Didn’t want to toss em. These just need to be broken in a little I think. Happy overall !!
Edit. Just read other reviews about these running small. I def agree. Also this color is a navy trim not black with the bright pink/orange. Hope that helps!
EDIT. Love them so much I got a second pair. They get even better broken in.

Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2019
For the last few years, since having an issue with my ankle (bursitis/arthritis) I've been a New Balance cheerleader. This pair is the least expensive of my purchases so I was a little skeptical. But I love them! They are very lightweight and feel like a lightweight comfy sweater for your feet. There is enough arch for me and I have pretty high arches. They look nice with jeans and are a little more subtle than colorful sneakers drawing attention to my feet. They are classy. So far the mesh is just fine. I am not too hard on my shoes except for the ones relegated to yard work (yes, my oldest New Balance as others just end up making my ankle ache at the end of the day).
Note: On size; I normally wear an 8 or sometimes a 7.5 in a shoe and am not normally a wide. BUT!! With New Balance I wear an 8.5 Wide. I now have 4 in this size and all are perfect for me. So if you've never worn them before, go up in size by a half and possibly go wide. They are never too wide in the heel or arch area but just give me plenty of comfortable space in the toe box.

4.0 out of 5 stars Size was a bit off.
Reviewed in Canada on May 22, 2023
I have had dozens of pairs of these New Balance 680 v6 sneakers
They are perfect for my feet at size 8.5. This pair, however, were tight and hurt my toes. They did not come in original NB packaging...maybe they were seconds? Not sure but did not fit like all other pairs. Colors are great, still love this shoe, and got them very quickly from the seller. I was greatful because they are so hard to find. I will keep as I had them for a 5k walk outside on first wear. Never expected them to not fit perfect or I would not have worn them outside.

Scarpe assolutamente consigliate
📦 CONFEZIONE E SPEDIZIONE
Arrivate in meno di un giorno in un pacco in perfette condizioni; all'interno si trovavano in una classica scatola da scarpe in cartone (anch'essa perfettamente integra)
🛠️ MATERIALI E REALIZZAZIONE
Le scarpe sono realizzate in materiale sintetico con la suola di gomma, risultano estremamente leggere e la presenza di fori consente la traspirazione. Sono di colore nero e hanno lacci molto resistenti.
✋ ESPERIENZA D’USO
Ho acquistato il numero 38 (numero che uso abitualmente) e mi calzano perfettamente. Le sto utilizzando per circa tre ore al giorno per del semplice jogging e mi ci trovo benissimo: sono comode e leggere e, a differenza di come mi è accaduto di solito, non mi hanno causato vesciche o eventuali "abrasioni" date dal contatto tra la pelle e la scarpa.
Per la mia esperienza fino a questo momento, anche con altre scarpe della stessa marca, le trovo molto resistenti, non solo per la resistenza all'uso in sè, ma anche ad eventuali "intemperie" dovute al clima.
✅❌ CONCLUSIONI
In conclusione, consiglio vivamente questo prodotto: non ho trovato alcuna nota negativa e, a questo prezzo, è tutto dire.

I only wear New Balance for running. I am usually hesitant to buy shoes over the internet but if your foot fits New Balance shoes, the size is true to their other running shoes. I have a narrow foot, so I went with their standard size - if you have a wider foot then go with that option. These were a great price for the quality!
