I have been looking for a pair of lightweight cross-trainers for some time. The rest of my family rave about the Nike Free Runs that they have, but since I am cursed with wide feet those shoes are not an option for me. I have always liked New Balance runners so when I saw these available I decided to give them a try. Happy to say these are great!

I am using these shoes exclusively for indoor training and they felt super comfortable right out of the box. They had no hot spots right from the start, but admittedly they feel a little better after a few days of "breaking in". These shoes are very lightweight and the mesh allows for great air circulation to keep my feet cool. The sole is flat with good grip which suits my needs fine, but seem softer than other cross-trainers I've had so only time will tell how durable the bottom is. The construction is excellent, as is the case with all of my New Balance shoes.

I would recommend this to anyone with wide feet looking for a minimalist-style shoe!
