New Balance Men's Mfcxv3 Running Shoe

small-size

foot hot

These are great shoes if your feet get hot easily.

running

Value for money
Bought same model running shoe, previously

I find these much more comfort and can use to run up to half marathon distance with no problems.

The tongue and laces all stayed put with no runners knot.

Lightweight, breathable, spongey
Very lightweight running shoe with a spongey sole that I’m using as my work shoes in a hospital.

but I feel like I could do a marathon in these ones.

I’ve been wearing New Balance for almost 20 years and I trust them for my work shoes and running shoes.

comfortable

Comfort
Extremely lightweight and super comfortable.

Comfortable using for speed and slow runs.

sole

Bits of dried grass can act like needles and puncture the soles of soft feet.

The soles are super thin and I wouldn't dare hike or run in these shoes (more like gloves for the feet) or even walk on pavement with them very much as I don't think the soles would last one month.

As I was accelerating, the soles would slip with every step.

When I saw the EL-X, with their super-thin soles and no laces, I thought what the heck.

width

but still a bit narrow, I really fill these shoes out and theres no adjustment.

However, once ensconced, they feel great and protect my feet from hot decks and gravel walkways.

A Wonderful Running Experience
First, a bit about me: I am a barefoot runner, and by barefoot, that's what I mean: no shoes.

Was able to maintain the same high cadence that barefoot running encourages, the same leg spring, the same full foot flex, all important components of good barefoot form.

I highly recommend these for experienced barefoot or minimalist runners.

True barefoot running utilizes dormant muscles and connective tissues you never knew you had, and these shoes are an extremely close approximation to that experience.

barefoot

These socks made all the difference and made them feel super comfortable while still maintaining the barefoot feel.

They are super comfortable and really do have a barefoot feel!

So I bought these 5 finger barefoot shoes and I really like them.

But if you have some barefoot or minimalist miles under your belt, and you want an ultra-thin sole, slip-on ease, and a highly responsive experience, the EL-X is the VFF for you.

Fits Like a glove
I really like these "shoes" to the point where I use them almost everyday.

Fantastic
I actually didn't think these would fit

Not too difficult to get into and fit lovely around my feet.

Then I bought another pair of VFFs whose name I can't recall, sized at an REI salesperson at size 41, and they fit nice and snug, comfortable even with my Morton's toe.

purchase

I bought this just before going on a cruise and it was perfect.

New Balance Men's FuelCell Echo V1 Running Shoe

wear

The heel support is very high and rubs against the achilles tendon when worn without socks.

Wore them to work with ankle socks and the shoe irritated my ankles so I had to run home and put on long socks.


Wear is certainly firmer than expected for a runner - after my adidas sneakers this is firm.

heel

I just had to toss these shoes out because the walls of the heel are made of some type of plastic that degraded so quickly it has, in less than a year, crumbled and piled up behind my feet in both shoes.

However, two things that can be improved are the heel support which is too high and too hard and the toe box which is too loose.

sock

size

but would have liked an X-wide fitting and this was not available so went up a 1/2 U.S. size to compensate.

They hurt my ankles
I was determined to get these shoes after trying  them on in the mall and not finding my size ANYWHERE

pain

This might cause blisters or injury to the tendon.

but that's being fussy - this is an all round great casual shoe and quite cool (I get hot feet so I dread canvas and leather shoes) as they are well ventilated.

Very comfortable and provides really good energy return while running.

Overall it is still an excellent running shoe.

casual

These were pretty comfortable, and fit well to start out with.

Very good product and fit very nice
This is my second pair of this same shoes because they are very comfortable.

Run very large
Like material, hate fit, at least 2 sizes large, also wide

I would definitely do a half size up as others have mentioned.

I got a 9, my usual size, and the back lip of the shoe is way too close to my heel and I’m stepping on it often.

slippery

My only complaint is that the inside is kind of slippery.

Very hot on the feet
Seems durable, nice quality, and waterproof;

These are gonna be fine for running around doing errands,

They aren't that great for walking in though, not much support and the top of the soles peel off after a couple of months of heavy use.

Maybe consider buying different soles for added comfort.

The fit does run small and on the narrow side.

sole damage

small-size width

I love just slipping these shoes on and running out the door.

A nice canvas shoe for warm weather
I really like this shoe.

cool

Four Stars
Very nice, cool shoe- not the greatest support for longer walks

I was a bit perturbed that they don't come in half sizes.

They do seem to keep my feet from getting so hot during extended walks and workouts.

but I have not noticed any problem when walking, biking, or running.

And when I tried the shoes on, there were quite comfortable.
