      Comments about Womens New Balance 760 Running Shoe:

      I run 5-6 days a week 8-10 mile a day or longer. My feet are flat and I pronate. I love NB 760's because they give me the stability and support with a light weight cushioned ride. I use orthotics and find they fit well in these shoes. I really have no complaints. I am a heel striker and tend to wear this area first on all my shoes. The 760's seem to correct this and last longer.

        Comments about Womens New Balance 760 Running Shoe:

        The New Balance 760 running shoe has been a lifesaver for me. I stopped running due to plantar fasciitis and a heel spur. My podiatrist recommended orthotics (which I did not get) and New Balance shoes.

        As an Asics fan, I reluctantly went to the New Balance store. The very knowledgeable salesman recommended the NB 760, but in a different size than I usually wear. (I typically wear 8M shoes, and 8.5M or Wide in running shoes. He recommended 7.5 wide for me.)

        I can run again and my foot pain is completely gone. I LOVE these shoes!

          I am a beginning runner and these shoes fit my foot like a glove. My feet overpronate and these shoes have made running comfortable and injury-free. I cannot testify to how durable they will be, but I have already bought a backup pair for when these werar out.

              Comments about Womens New Balance 760 Running Shoe:

              I'm battling shin splints right now, and any type of non-athletic shoe aggravates it. I bought these to wear on an everyday basis until I'm healed. They're great! Very comfortable, fit my custom orthods (WITHOUT that annoying squeek) and I love the colors. I could easily see myself running in these as well, although of course I haven't tried that yet. I used to be a devoted New Balance runner until a deviant pair caused me injury and made me switch to a different brand. After buying these, I might just think about switching back to NB.

                I bought my first pair last year, my second this spring, a third last month, and just received another pair that I am stashing for later in the year. I love these shoes. I run over 100 miles a month on hard sand and roadways, and these shoes have held up and held me up.

                  Wow! I had new balance years ago, but have been wearing asics for last couple of years. I am glad I gave these a try because they are so comfortable and seem much more cushioned and supportive than the last few pairs of 2150's. What a smooth ride! I think they may be a bit heavier (I didn't look at weight) but the support is worth it. Seeing that these are endangered, I may get an extra pair now!

                    I wanted to try a new lighter shoe and am glad I picked this one. Lightweight so now I think that I am super fast. I run between 3-4 miles 5+ days per week and my feet feel good after each run. Great hot pink color with breast cancer support ribbon. One thing to note sizing recommends sizing up 1/2 size. I did this and found the shoe was too big and had to send back for my normal size.

                      I bought this shoe based on previous reviews and the shoe fit perfectly right out of the box. They have excellent stability and are nice and light. I run a few days a week and have also used them for walking on rocky trails and around the hood. I have worn Asics, Mizuno, Saucony and Brooks and find these shoes to be oustanding. I will definitely buy them again as they are very well priced.

                          After going through two pairs of Nike Moto and sustaining a couple injuries that were probably due to overtraining - I went to a running store to get evaluated and tried on a whole mess of shoes. These seemed the most comfortable - helping to control my foot movements without being too stiff. I'm now on my second pair, and have not suffered any injury - whether it be better training or because of the shoes. The fit is great. I usually wear 7 1/2 (wide) in other shoes - am an 8 (regular) in these. When I run - I no longer think about knee/foot pain or how the shoe feels - - it just feels natural.

                            These are a great pair of lightweight stability trainers. I use them mostly for short runs (1-5 miles) and general cross-training at the gym. My only con was that the lacing is a little stiff and requires some tugging to get the right fit, however definitely not a deal breaker.

                                This is my first pair of new balance running shoes, I usually run in Nike, but thought I would give these a try because my husband only runs in new balance. Right out of the box, the shoe was fairly uncomfortable, it feels a little bit to big for my foot as well. However, when I ran in them for the first time, I only ran about 4 miles to try them out and I was pleasantly surprised that despite my initial concerns about how uncomfortable and big they felt, they were very supportive and comfortable for my run. I am not sold completely though because they are still pretty new. I think I am probably going to be sticking with nike.

                                  The 760 series has always been super comfortable - 763, 764, 768, etc. Fits perfect right out of the box. I run 15-20 miles per week on pavement. The 760 appears to be a little more lightweight than its predecessors, with a bit more flexibility in the fabric of the shoe.

                                    I was initially drawn to this shoe since my dear mother-in-law passed away after her 2nd bout with breast cancer several years ago. My mom then was diagnosed a few years ago and for now is cancer free! :) So wearing these shoes is a reminder to take care of myself! Exercising and loosing 50 lbs has reduced my risk of breast cancer dramatically, so these shoes will help me keep the importance of exercise in mind! These shoes HELP with pronation when speed walking and running and are VERY comfortable! I only wish they were available in Stability Plus, but adding the SUPERFEET inserts has fixed that concern so now I have worn these at work and been very happy since my feet are not sore! I have been really happy with them and I am glad I finally found a shoe that didn't put my foot to sleep! Hope this becomes available next year!
