A Great Pair Of Walking Or Running Shoes!

I have purchased 3 pair of these shoes. I walk 7 miles daily and have foot problems. The wide width of this model is great for my bunions and hammer toe. Absolutely no rubbing or discomfort! Great support and cushioning ! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SHOE!

Perfect Running Shoes

Recommend a half size up at least, good quality and very comfy

Sizing/fir Continues To Be A Problem

I bought the V4 and V5 has almost ALL the same problems. It fits HORRIBLY, it is small, and it’s tight. My foot needs to go forward and it can’t, bc there’s no room. I bought THREE sizes (and I had to last year too), and not one fit. 6.5 and 7 were IDENTICAL and the 7.5 might as well have been an 8.5 for how wide the toe box was. I haven’t bought a new balance shoe since Covid because there is no quality control in sizing. They are just all over the place. This is my last try, New Balance. You continue to waste my time with your bad sizing. I am over it, and I’m also over your donations to maga. Please do not reply to my review.

Won't Buy Again

I won't buy the Rebel line again. I hate rockers. They work against my midfoot strike as I land on the rocker. This happened with both V4 and V5. V3 I had no issues. The styling is nice but the shoe just doesn't work for me.
