Women's Newton Running Motion

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

I have had trouble with my left foot for more than 2 years. First plantar faciitis, then fallen arch and metatarsalgia. With the help of Superfeet insoles and Asics Kayano (stability shoe) I was able to keep running although never pain free. After running a half marathon on Feb 13, 2011, I decided it was time to try to "heal" my foot and I gave the Newton Motion shoe a try. It has been exactly one month that I have been wearing them. These shoes have been a God send. The transition was seamless for me. I followed the suggestions, took it slowly and had no problems with calf / achiles pain. I am now up to running about 6 miles in them, totally pain free, and my running time has improved by more than 2 minutes per mile. I can not say enough about these shoes. I can actually tell that my arch has risen from the fallen status and is almost back to normal and I can walk barefoot again with no pain. And it has been only a month that I have been wearing these shoes and I only wear them when I run. Truly amazing!

I've been running in Newtons for well over a year, and I LOVE everything about these shoes except the price tag. These shoes were a god-send, because every other shoe on the market (I tried them all) didn't give the support I needed -- I am a fore-foot runner and my heels rarely touch the ground. Newton shoes are perfect for FOREFOOT runners.
***If you are a heavy heel-striker, however, I don't think you'll like Newton shoes.

I just purchased my third pair of this shoes. I have also purchased two pairs of the newton distance u's. For me, these are awesome . I have used these for 20 mile runs and plan on running the NYC marathon in November in them. The toe box is roomy. I have a narrow heal and these fit fine provided I use all the eyelet holes. My running form and speed has improved since wearing newtons. I have one foot that overpronates and feel like I get decent support provided I use the two additional holes at top of the shoe. Because the toe box is open mesh this is not a good shoe for beach running. I have used them on trails but usually use for mostly road running. I feel they have good traction on wet and snowy pavement. I run in these all winter and my feet stay warm even though I do not have great circulation. My only complaint is I feel they wear out fast. I average 100-140 miles per month. I run primarily in these but do have trail running shoes and the distance u's I wear on occasion. I am replacing these after approx 300-350 miles. When the bottoms of my feet hurt after 8m when I run I know it is time for a new pair. Hope you find this review helpful.

it doesn't get any better for me. i run on the front of my foot anyway so this shoe is PERFECT for me. they are a little pricey but i break down the from of any other shoe i've owned so quickly they pay for themselves. i got almost a year out of my last pair ( i ONLY wear them to run, i have other shoes for non-running days at the gym). i have high arches and i like the motion better than the distance u for support, so take that into consideration if this is your first newton. these are the only shoes i run in, i can't say enough good things about them.

great pair of shoes first time I have purchased, they really do what they say they will, I'm a real heal planter and after my first run found that the design really made me lean forward and get some more speed going, will purchase again

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Allow time to gradually adjusting your mileage when you begin wearing this minimalist shoe. However, after doing so, I ran faster in these shoes and had less post run discomfort than I had in many other shoes. The design of the shoe helped me stop running with a heel strike which had been contributing to my shin splints. While the weave of the fabric allows it to be very breathable, it does not do as well during trail runs in which sand and small particles can get inside the shoe and cause blisters. I love this shoe for racing. I have three pairs, but get them while they're on sale. Take advantage of the VIP and occasional 20% off coupons

This is my 3rd pair of these shoes. I love them.
I find I run more efficiently. I also find they are a great summer shoe. Keep your feet cool.

My orthodics fit great.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

I had heard that you either love or hate Newtons and I am definitely a LOVER! I have so many problems with shoes however I have been running in these for over a month now between 20 -40 k a week and I have had no problems at all. I especially look forward to hills with these babies. The laces do come undone fairly easily though.

love them

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Great shoe. Helps control pronation and running on your forefoot. I usually order 1/2 size bigger, and the website recommends this, but I may have to return these for a full size bigger since my big toe is right at the edge. Also, I am alternating with my Nike Zoom Elites to get used to these and not injur my hamstrings. Really works your glutes, hamstrings and calves. They are lightweight which is a plus. The biggest plus for me is that they are not heavy in the heel - lets you run the way you're supposed to...on your forefeet. I would keep buying these as long as I can get them on sale!

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

I love these shoes so much, I can't stop running. I'm small framed, low arch, fast, long distance runner, and these were perfect. I also try to adhere to the Chi running technique, which these are quite ideal for this approach. These shoes don't feel clunky, they're light, the support is great, I can't say enough...I love these shoes that much. The price is a bit high, but honestly, worth it...they're that much better than the average brand.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

These shoes fit comfortably on my feet. However, the extra roller in the forefoot is not for me as I just got diagnosed with a morton's neuroma-probably has been aggravated by the roller. Other than that I'd say these are great shoes except that I ran in them for only three months, about 20 miles/week and they are quickly wearing down. Too much to pay for that. I'll keep looking.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

This is probably the best pair of shoes that I have ever purchased. They are perfect for mid-foot runners and are so light you barely know that they are on. I use them for long runs (15 to 20+ miles), tempo runs and races. I have close to 200 miles on this pair and they still feel great. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a versatile light weight trainer that can also be used for racing. The only runs they don't work for are trail runs. I have the Newton trail shoes as well for training/racing off road.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Use for training on roads/beach. Shoe lacks stability through arch and midfoot. May not be an issue of shoe but past injury.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Helps with Piriformis issues. Finally able to increase mileage.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Have been in physical therapy for Piriformis Syndrome. I do believe these are helping so far! Ran twice in them and no pain.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Wanted a lightweight running shoe with support
and the Newton Motion gives me both. Has helped significantly
lessen my heel pain. These shoes are great!
Really love 'em!

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Great looking with comfortable fit. Buy 1/2 size larger than your normal size for perfect fit. Very light weight and breathable probably makes it less durable. Expensive so buy it with VIP plus coupon discount makes it affordable. Allow a little time to get use to it. Build up your miles over time. Great for ChiRunning.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

Newton shoes help tremendously with proper form. They take time to transition into, so don't expect high mileage right away. Proper adjustment is key, but worth doing the right way. These shoes are light and comfortable. The only downside is that gravel or small rocks can get stuck between the lugs, so this model doesn't work as well for trail running.

Comments about Womens Newton Running Motion Running Shoe:

I have been running in Newtons for a little over a year now. This shoe has great support and traction. I ran 10 miles on sidewalks and roads with no pain. Love these shoes.
