Product was delivered promptly.  I had researched the shoe previous to purchasing and like all shoes, it doesn't cater to everyone.  For me New Balance has always been a brand you can count on.  The fit on these is great. Toe box fine for me.  Flexibilty is fine as I was questioning some remarks that this was better for heavy runners.  So far they have been a great shoe for everyday training.  The New Balance laces are what every shoe manufacturer should copy.  Great value for the price. Do the research and if the last, flexibility and fit are what you are looking for, you'll like this model.
