New Balance has been my Go to shoe... but no more. Every time you like a style, they change it for cheaper material and thinner liners. (See pic) Their called Response 1.0 performance inserts... but I have toilet paper with more layers!! Yes consumers.... that thin black line in the photo IS their liner. SMH. Typical behavior to reduce the quality and thereby reducing the wear time...then increase the cost. The shameful liner to my husbands new pair speakes for itself. If NB is going to reduce their liners... they should also reduce the cost to off set the seperate liners you are forced to buy. They are expensive and add to the cost of the shoes! Very sad us loyal consumers have to move on to another brand to be satisfied.
