      Ran in vibrams for a while, needed a little ankle shock absorption. These shoes are the next best thing to being barefoot! On my second pair. So light and so great!

      Comments about Womens New Balance 101 Trail Running Shoe:

      i'm really impressed with these shoes. i have been skipping around (brands and styles) for the right shoes for casual trail running. these are super lightweight, stylish, and have good trail traction. i loved the nike frees but pebbles would constantly get stuck in the grooves. i'd buy another pair of these. hopefully, they don't wear too fast.

      Really, Really Wide!

      Comments about Womens New Balance 101 Trail Running Shoe:

      This model is cut extremely wide for a New Balance B width shoe. My feet are wide and so I assumed I would be getting a snug fit, which I like for trail running. However, these shoes were way too wide and so quite uncomfortable.
