      Comments about Womens New Balance 1540 Running Shoe:

      I'm 77 and gave up running after I had my first hip replacement. These shoes are too wide for every day, but the extra cushioning make them great for gym use. Wish they'd make them narrower!

        Comments about Womens New Balance 1540 Running Shoe:

        I had been wearing an Asics Motion Control shoe for years and this was a nice change. I feel this shoe really controls pronation. I ordered a half size bigger than my "real" shoe size to accommodate orthodics. Much of my knee pain has dissipated which makes this shoe AWESOME.

              Comments about Womens New Balance 1540 Running Shoe:

              I have been using the 1123 for years now and I am happy with this update. It is very comfortable and much lighter. I'm not sure that it feels any wider than the previous version, as I wear a D width which is wide for women. I plan to continue buying this.

                I hike 1-2 hours 5-7 times per week.
                I have successfully worn the New Balance 1123
                for years. This shoe is sooooooo uncomfortable compared to the 1123. It is too wide in too box
                allowing the foot to slide around thus
                totally negating any motion control.
