I always purchase New Balance running shoes as I do put in miles running every other day.  Since I was traveling to Europe this summer I wanted to have a shoe that was lightweight(to accomodate the weight limits per bag) and provide the support and cushion I need in a shoe.  The NB MR890 did not disappoint.  It met all of my requirements and I'm considering getting another.  I suspect the shoe is not high mileage, but for traveling about it works out to be a perfect fit.  I rate this shoe with "High Fives".
