New Balance 761

Pros: comfort, style, safety, sturdy build.
Cons: The backs bend if you do not untie your shoes before putting them back on.

New Balance 761 Who should not wear these shoes: I have been a runner since I started seventh grade. I competed in track and cross-country (long distance) through Jr. High and High School and one year in college. My feet used to be thin and I ...

Pros: Tough enough to take the road and the big guy above 'em.
Cons: They make me want to overtrain they feel so good.

NEW BALANCE


Yes, the "us" I am referring to are those of us humans in that 1% of the human race who happen to be blessed with with large feet. I know, I know, before you start to joke about we people with big feet, just think: it's not...

Pros: everything
Cons: none

If you like to run, then these shoes are great for the purpose. I have them in a different color. They are extremely comfortable. You can use them for almost any sport. They don't rip or break. They are also neat looking. I needed a new pair of shoes, so...

Pros: Great support
Cons: none

I purchased my New Balance Running Shoes because they looked great and are the best running shoes I've found. Their trademark is gray colors that are so cool looking. They have the best support and comfort available. I wore Nike's before and I still...

Pros: inexpensive, comfortable, light.
Cons: none thus far.

I've recently taken two trips to the store to buy running shoes. On the first trip, I spent over $130 on a pair of Brooks Trance shoes, and on the second trip I opted for the more reasonable New Balance 761 at $79. Learn from my mistakes: get the New...

Pros: Very comfortable
Cons: None

I love these shoes! I'm a relatively new runner, and thanks to these shoes, I'm still going strong. I have wide feet, and these fit perfectly. They have held up longer than a second pair (which shall remain nameless) that I have already had to trash...

Pros: Light weight, flexible, durable
Cons: style and insole wears out fast

The New Balance 761 running shoes are excellent if you run on a track or on concrete/asphalt. I’ve trained for the Long Beach and Los Angeles marathons in these shoes and have had no problems. I used to train in Ascii Gels but found them to be too thin...

Pros: Comfortable, visually appealing
Cons: High price (unless on sale!)

The best thing about the pair of New Balance 761's that I just purchased was the price. On sale for $75, I feel like I got a bargain price for these shoes. I only wear them for running, which I usually do about 3 times a week for 3-4 miles. From the...

Pros: Great all around shoe
Cons: It costs to much

I have used at least one other New Balance Shoe the 659 and because of this I bought the 761. I before buying the new balance I was use to Reebok and some no name brands. With out a doubt the New Balance 761 is the best shoe I have come across yet....

Pros: stylish and well-made
Cons: a bit squishy

New Balance has always made extremely well-made and high-quality running shoes for the serious runner. Now their style is becomming mainstream and people who buy running shoes just for looks are tuning in to the new trend. But the shoes are still...

Pros: comfort and style
Cons: laces

These shoes are extremely comfortable from the moment I put them on until the end of the day. Whether I am walking the dogs on asphalt and concrete or hiking along a forest trail, the support and springiness of step stay with me all day. I have worn a...

Pros: Go anywhere
Cons: none

My regular routine was to buy two pairs of Nike sneakers per year, buying the second pair after the first pair wore out. But when I tried New Balance (I have to admit, I tried them for the look), I found that they lasted for almost two years under...

Pros: Feels like the shoe was tailor made for your feet
Cons: none

I have a fetish for running shoes. Nike, New Balance, Reeboks, Brooks...I've tried them all. I always get caught up in the colorfulness of Nikes, but end up not liking the shoe because of the poor fit. You want a shoe that performs yet looks stylish....

Pros: Comfort, light, support
Cons: NONE

I bought a pair with professional guidance in a specialty running shoe store in Seattle.

I had a lot of problems with my previous running shoes (Saucony, Nike, Brooks, Adidas) until I found the NB-761! These are the only shoes in which I can...

Pros: Durable and Rugged
Cons: none

Just before last summer hit, I needed to find a sneaker that would get me through a summer of pure exercise. I joined a Drum and Bugle Corps that spends at least 14 hours a day either practiceing or performing a show. Every day we worked hard in the...

Pros: comfort and long lasting
Cons: not the prettiest shoe

They may not be the flashiest most advanced shoe available, but they are simply the most comfortable running shoes I have found. I ran my first 10k in these, then my first half, and my first marathon, I credit my running to the comfort of these shoes....

Pros: Comfortable
Cons: a little ugly

In college I needed a shoe that would hold up on my 2-3/week running excursions. I decided on the New Balance 761. I thought they didn't look that visually appealing to me, but as a 13 size foot, most shoes don't look all that cool at that size....
