New Balance Sneaker, 11, White

As someone who walks on the outside of their feet, these shoes created a whole different experience when working out. I didn't have the shin splints while jogging and it also wasn't painful to have the extra support cushion against my arch when doing more casual walking. They're so lightweight too! I immediately knew I made the right decision with my purchase and I'm really happy with them, especially since I've never bought brand name shoes before at this price. I needed very specific support for my feet and I highly recommend these

For the last 5 years I struggled to get shoes to fit my Neuropathy afflicted feet. I have no less than 4 pairs of shoes at home. The last chance was for me to contact New Balance, and you managed to provide shoes that not only fit me, but mostly aliviate this pain that I have been living with 24/7 God bless the lady who looked after me, and your company to be able to provide these shoes. Sincerely, Walter

Decent version but the V14 was better for me. I wear the 4E and the V15 seems narrower compared to the V14 and less of that sock-like feel so it it isn't as comfortable for my bunions. This version does not feel as stable as V14 but I still run 80% of my miles in it.

The 1080 15 is a well made shoe, but it doesn't meet my needs for every day comfort and extra cushioning. I use 1080s for walking, and the 1080 13 was perfect for the comfort and cushioning i need throughout all areas—toe, midsole, heel. The 1080 14 was less so, but it still worked. The 15 does not It it seems like a different style of shoe, more of a support rather than neutral shoe, somewhat narrowerand less comfortable and less cushioning in the toolbox and heel. I see it as a different type or model of shoe and not an extension or improvement of the 1080s unfortunately.

I don't know what is going on here. The last 2 versions of the 1080s cemented the model as a top tier daily trainer. This is just not the same shoe. Different foam and fit. Not everyone wants the dad shoe look either. What's next, Velcro straps? Were sales that bad? I hope this is just a side quest and next year it will be back to normal. This was an easy skip for me and I have ran through 4 pairs of 1080s v13 and v14.

I've had many, many version of 1080 and the shape of these have changed - and not for the better. They are clearly running a 1/2 size longer and are definitely running narrower than the prior 2 versions. It's very unfortunate. Had been waiting for this release for a long time.

The shoes look great but I am disappointed the sizing changed. I've been buying 1080 V's for at least 15 years size 9 4E. Perfect fit until now. These are 1/2” narrower!!! Why did they do that I don't know! I traced the bottom of the V14's and V15's on paper and the new V15 is at least a 1/2” narrow. They don't fit and they don't offer wider. Very sad indeed.

I have been a loyal fan of your shoes for decades, primarily due to their comfort and the availability of extra-wide fits. I have always appreciated that your sneakers could pass for more formal footwear, suitable for business casual settings or even a jacket and tie. However, I am disappointed with the recent shift in your design aesthetic. Most current models look like clunky, engineered athletic shoes, and I find the "NB" branding has become increasingly garish. As someone who requires a wide fit, I value the combination of comfort and subtle style that your brand used to provide. Unless there are more understated designs available, this may be my last purchase. I hope you will consider returning to the more versatile styles that many long-time customers have come to rely on.

Switching to another brand. These 1080V15 are terrible. The new sole is not anything like what the shoe should provide and NB has completely gone away from it's flagship product. Plus, the colors are so ugly, seriously - NB needs new talent and get away from such terrible designs. The fabric choice is specifically so they get dirty quickly. Toe box is smaller - you lost me as a customer.

I have been buying 1080's for years and they have always been amazing until now. For some inexplicable reason the new version (1080v15) was made substantially narrower than all of the previous versions. I usually take 11.5 2E, but even the 4E width was cramping my feet. Instead of "re-designing" an iconic shoe, just keep it the same and raise the price. I won't be back until New Balance resolves the Fit Issue.
