1.	Deb rated this product 3 stars Sun, June 29,2008: The major problem with these shoes is that every little piece of gravel gets stuck in the little nooks and crannies of the sole! Really a bother--have to get a screw driver after each run to get the pebbles out. Ok shoe, however, the hassle isn't worth it! Run 25 miles/week utilizing orthotics.

2.	nhrunner rated this product 5 stars Fri, May 09,2008: These are my favorite running shoe ever. Far superior than the new NB1223 or the last sevral NB shoes. I can't find any in my sized ANYWHERE. Great stability for short and long runs. I did a couple of marathons and several 1/2's in 1222's and felt great! I had a least 6 pairs and had to number them ...

3.	See Mommy Run rated this product 1 star Mon, December 03,2007: Beware of this model - in my previous review I got them and loved them, but after a few months of averaging 17 -25 miles a week the cushioning was shot, not enough support around my foot and my knees ache after being in them just for walking a couple of hours. I switched to Saucony Hurricane 7s (e...

4.	abby rated this product 3 stars Thu, May 17,2007: I was talked into this shoe (I don't have a wide foot - which seems the best reason for this shoe), and while it's a ton better than the 1221 (hated it), it's not quite supportive enough. I am beginning to have new knee and ankle pain. I still think the 1220 is the best.

5.	jen rated this product 5 stars Tue, May 01,2007: Great all day support outstanding cushion.

6.	Karen rated this product 5 stars Wed, February 14,2007: Like other reviewers, I loved the 1220 and hated the 1221. So I had my doubts about the 1222. I was very impressed. Great cushioning and plenty wide enough. Motion control isn't quite what the 1220s were, but all in all a great running shoe.

7.	Patty B rated this product 2 stars Fri, February 09,2007: I was not impressed with this new balance. The custioning is not what I expected. Although after I have ran a mile or two I like it better then I did when I started the run. It has a lot of width for the regular size shoe. I would not recommend if you do not need the extra width.

8.	See Mommy Run rated this product 5 stars Thu, December 28,2006: I had a pair of NB 5 yrs ago that I loved and had not been able to find a replacement until the 1222. These shoes are comfortable and supportive, I am a new distance runner and with my superfeet inserts I can do the mileage and feel fantastic and ready for more at the end of each of my runs - gotta...

9.	Joan rated this product 1 star Tue, December 26,2006: Had several pairs of the 1221 and loved them. The 1222 actually hurt the balls of my feet and my toes cramp. Can't wear them at all. I'm back to wearing my old 1221s and need to find something else.

10.	Always Running rated this product 5 stars Tue, December 12,2006: Am I the only one to notice the super forefoot cushioning in these shoes? Looks like they placed it in just the right spot. I used to run in the Kayanos but they provided no forefoot cushioning and gave me pains on the 6th mile of my marathon. These shoes are great, and the toe box is generous. I di...

11.	wendy rated this product 5 stars Mon, November 13,2006: i have been suffering with plantar fasc. for about 6 months. after a month of running in this shoe and a pair of cush runner insoles i no longer have the problem. great shoe. great fit for wide feet. i run 7 days a week, twice a day about 10 miles a day and this shoe keeps up with me. i am on my...

12.	twnzmom rated this product 2 stars Wed, November 01,2006: I was talked into this shoe by the salesman and regretted it. I have worn the 815 for a couple years and this shoe allowed my foot to pronate and I developed plantar fasciitis and am wearing my old shoes until I can get to the store to buy new one's. Great cushioning and comfort but very little mo...

13.	L Skinner rated this product 1 star Sun, October 29,2006: I have been loyal to NB for the last seven years. I loved the 1220 and the 1221, but the 1222 is disappointing. The fit is different and it feels like there is less cushioning and support. So I am still running in my old 1221. I am looking at going with the 763 or to Saucony.

14.	christopher rated this product 5 stars Thu, June 22,2006: Great shoe. I loved the 1220 but hated the 1221. The 1222 is a wonderful update that reminds me the 1220 in even better

15.	ron rated this product 5 stars Mon, June 19,2006: the 1222 is a great shoe ... i wear a 10D and there is plenty of room in this shoe ... finally NB made a shoe to rival the 1220 .....

16.	JGG rated this product 3 stars Sat, June 17,2006: Decided to try the 1221 to see if it would have a better ride than the 857 (most of the components of the two shoes are the same, but the 857 has cloth seats and the 1222 has leather. IMHO the 857 is a much better shoe at a better price-more substantial cushioning for bigger runners (compare the hee...

17.	Jim rated this product 5 stars Mon, June 12,2006: This shoe has a much larger toe box. It's a great update and well worth your $. The fit is much truer to size and it's a much more comfortable ride. More cushion but still firm. I'm about 180 and run about 20 miles a week and although I've only had the shoe about two weeks, I can see it's much m...
