Max cushioning was once considered a curiosity, limited to specialized fields like ultramarathoning. Now, with its benefits recognized across a wider population of runners, max cushioning is here to stay. With the Fresh Foam More, New Balance applies their signature performance technology to an ultra-cushioned silhouette. The latest in the series, the Fresh Foam X More v4 combines the most Fresh Foam X put into a midsole to date with the smoother foot strike transitions of the largest rocker in the Fresh Foam range, a wider platform for balance between cushioning and support, and lightweight breathable upper construction. The Fresh Foam X More v4 is a total comfort experience.

Why didn't I know about these shoes earlier!!!? COMFORT!!!
These shoes! These glorious, hug you better then your husband, shoes! My feet are in love. I have feet that need support. They get sore, ache, make my back hurt. I am miserable in almost every shoe.But these, I would cheat on my other shoes with these everyday and not feel one bit ashamed. I would find a way to make these shoes go with a formal gown. Can you wear them to a cocktail party, of course you can. Will they be OK for that wedding you were invited to? Yes, if you dance all night because you feel so good, no one will care what were on your feet, go for it girlfriend!These shoes. They treat you like a lady. Delicate around the toe area with stretchy fabric. So nice. No digging in on the toes, it has a wide toe bed so your feet can spread out like feet are supposed to. Nothing feels binding or tight. The top where the laces are, lovely and stretchy too. Nothing digging into the top of the foot on that tender skin. So gentle.I deserve these shoes and I am a better person for owning them. They have stopped me from being bitchy to others because I am comfortable and feel delightful. I am not thinking in my head "when will this person stop talking to me so I can sit down because my feet hurt!!" or "no I don't want a double shift with overtime because my feet are screaming at me"!.These shoes, so elegantly tender to my beaten up feet that need somebody to pay attention to them and love them for who they are.The footbed; if heaven has shoes, these are there. First pair everyone wants. They have a middle support system that absolutely supports those fallen arches, those feet that stand all day on hard floors. Feet that have seen early mornings and late nights. Feet that have walked, climbed and carried. The center support almost feels like a big squishy ball that fills up the center arch and then feels springy under your foot. It is quite wonderful really. Reminds me of childhood days when my unscathed feet ran merrily through golden fields of summer. Unburdened by injury or tired feet, no pain, just joy... these shoes...The Heel; There is more density in the heel portion. There is still squish but it feels like you have cushioning that is supportive but not stiff. The fit of the shoe behind your foot is also forgiving. It doesn't bite into your ankle or have sharp ankle edges that give you blisters because they rub like a lot of the backs of sports shoes do. The design really thinks a lot about function and comfort in different quadrants of the shoe for your foot to really cushion your foot properly and not bind or pinch. I need that, I am grateful they made these.These shoes. Girl, if you have read this far, you are already looking for you new lover. I bought mine in the light blue. I am buying more!These shoes <3

So comfortable!
I’m a new runner and needed something affordable and comfy to get me going. These are what I hoped for and MORE! Super soft cushion, great for walking too. True to size. I wouldn’t recommend for cross training or lifting because there is a ton of cushion, and it can be a bit unstable when squatting, etc.

Does feel like walking on a cushiony cloud as others have suggested; good for bad knees and such.
These live up to what I researched about them, and they're said to be good for people with arthritis, and while I'm not as young as when I ran marathons or such, and sad to say out of shape right now in my mid-40's, these live up to what I've read. The color online, at least from my laptop is pretty spot-on, a more white-light grey, as shown, which I liked, bc I struggled with getting these or the light blue ones, bc I wondered if the grey would end up showing up as darker or for me, "more dingy"-looking than the brighter colors online. They fit as expected for me; I have a high arch, fairly narrow feet (but normal-sized, nothing out of the ordinary), and arch-support and overall cushioning for my now getting more arthritic knees and lower back pain is what it says it will be. The colors are cute, although online on Zappos these are shown as Men's shoes, so I don't exactly know what that's about, so I took a chance buying them on Amazon. Normally I'd buy from a direct company or a Zappos type of overall shoe type of store, so I am pleasantly surprised I got exactly what they are supposed to be. I'd say, unless you have irregular-sized feet, the sizing for your usual running or walking shoe is pretty spot on (for example, I'm an 8.5 in running shoes/athletic shoes, but more of an 8 in sandals, etc), and they feel good with or without socks too. I tried to see if my extra arch supports helped, but they made the shoes feel too tight, which they could easily be lace-loosened, but honestly, I don't feel I need any extra support with these. Other people's reviews I read in favor of the cushioning, etc so far lives up to what I feel and what I received when I had the product delivered. It's still early days, so I can't comment on the longevity of the shoe, and if you want a harder kind of sole, you won't like these. If you really want that nice, little roll when you walk (not like the Sketchers shoes though), and a little extra height, which as just barely a 5'5 average-height woman is always something I enjoy, these will help with that too, as the extra inch or two helps up the cushioning, but doesn't take away from the fit nor the support. I'd recommend.

Great fit and so comfy!
Cloud-like. These offered fabulous support as I sprinted from my airport gate back to security to see if TSA had picked up my phone that I had left. Apparently I was so focused on putting these amazing shoes back on that I forgot my phone! They fit true to size and clean well. I wore them camping and was able to wash the dirt out of them.

10/10 Comfort, with some slight imperfections in appearance.
These are my 5th pair of NB Fresh Foam More. They are super comfortable and don't cause any hip or lower back pain. Unfortunately, when I unboxed them I noticed tiny little stains on the toe box just below the lace. It's not bad enough bother with returning, but a bit disappointing. It's only on one shoe, but I had already applied protectant to the other before I noticed. I need my shoes to last as long as possible, and I've learned to treat as soon as I get them. I probably will stain them myself soon, so again, I'm not going to the trouble of returning. It would be nice if there were an option to get a partial refund rather than returning and replacing when a product doesn't meet expectations.
