New Balance Men's MR1223 Running Shoe

A couple of years ago I had my running analyzed at a local shoe store to find the right shoe for my running style. Prior to this, I was buying running shoes based on how they looked. Little did I know that each person’s foot strike would dictate the type of shoe they need. My Nike’s were giving me shin splints and ankle.

The running shoe store found that I over-pronated and that I needed shoes for stability on the inner part of my feet. They recommended the New Balance 1221. After putting those shoes through many miles, I was ecstatic to see the newer model of the 1221 on Amazon as the New Balance MR1223. These shoes not only look great but they also feel great on my feet.

If you’re planning on high mileage running on these shoes, I’ve been recommended to buy a size to a size and half bigger because feet swell when you run.

Most comfortable Croos Trainer I’ve ever owned. I wear a size 16 4E and it’s not easy to find alternate color choices in this size. I love um.

A great shoe at an even greater price. Typical high quality New Balance product. They have my business as long as they continue to produce these excellent shoes.

My job consists of lots of walking in some of the most remote parts of rural Guatemala. I picked up these shoes a few months ago on a brief trip back to the US and couldn’t be more pleased. They’re rugged and comfortable; the provide the perfect combination of durability and comfort for a walking shoe designed for conditions more rugged than an urban environment. The thick leather covering makes them ideal for rocks and street dogs that bite at the ankles of passing motorcycles. More than once has one chomped onto my foot and not done any damage to either the shoe or (more importantly) my foot. I plan on purchasing another pair when these ones have to go to the great shoe tree in the sky. Couldn’t be happier!

Package was in normal condition and received on time.
I don’t know whose fault is on the following:
I have purchased New Balance shoes directly from their company for almost two decades. The running shoes (i.e, M962, NB2001, M992 GL, etc) had been a perfect fit to my feet, and I have felt very conmfortable and soft when wearing them (8-1/2-4E).
The current shoes (8-1/2-4E)are stiff and my feet feel tight when wearing them. I don’t imply blame on the seller, but this is the first kind of experience with New Balance shoes.

I bought the brown pair and they look just like the photo. They are beautiful! They appear well-made and it doesn’t feel like the thong will be uncomfortable between my toes. The sizing is a bit off - I am ususally a size 8.5 but only whole sizes were available so I got a 9 - I thought they would be too big but they fit my foot exactly - they are almost like an 8.

I wish shoe makers would make 1/2 sizes. i purchased a 9b and it fit a little loose. I wear a 8 1/2 shoe and a 8 would have been to small and a 9 is a little to big. What is the problem with shoe makers making 1/2 sizes in these type shoes. Other wise the shoe feel good and since it is hard to find a red shoe in that style I like it.

These are a truly great pair of shoes. The leather is soft and there was no awkward "breaking-in" time. They molded instantly to my feet and keep them happy on even the longest days. They are cute (I have received many compliments) and are wonderful for walking. I am new to Keen’s shoes, but I am a believer now–I have always scoffed at the price tag, but they are well worth the investment. I just ordered a second pair!
