new balance has always been a favorite of mine. I started wearing them about a year ago and love them a lot. They are one of a kind and I couldn’t be happier to wear them. I was recently able to get one for myself and I couldn’t be happier with my new pair of new balance.
new balance has taken a lot of our feedback and asked us for a bunch of changes, so now they are taking some of our suggestions and implementing some of them on their website. I’m happy to say that these updates are much-appreciated. There are some changes on the website that you might not have noticed yet. For example, their website is now much easier to navigate and the new logo gives a cleaner, more modern look.
One thing new balance is doing that I really appreciate is changing the materials that appear on the box. In the old design, boots that were leather looked very different than those that are synthetic. Now the boots are leather, but they still have a synthetic texture. Overall, I am very happy with new balance’s boots and am looking forward to putting my own on when they ship next month.
To be fair, I only paid for this one new version of the box because I’m not sure of how much it will cost.
This is a small but important detail for any of us who buy new shoes or boots. A lot of people pay full price for a pair of boots, then complain that the leather doesn’t feel good but the price is right. New balance is doing a better job with that situation.
To be honest, I have a pair of boots that I bought in October 2010 for about $200 at my local store. I have to admit that the leather is stiff and the stitching is very uncomfortable, but I like the look of the shoes and I can’t complain.
This is a good thing though, because it means more people will buy the boots in the future because they’ll be more confident that the leathers are going to be good. It might be that new balance is aware of this and has already changed the pricing on the boots, but until then, its a good idea to have a pair of boots with a better leather that you can wear for a long time.
New Balance is trying to move to a more casual style of footwear in the wake of its decision to end its “professional” footwear line. But they still have a number of pro-level shoe styles and I’m not sure they can be all that casual, at least without changing the prices.
It could be that new balance decided to make boots for pros more accessible, but it might also be that they’re just selling the same boots they always have for the same price. Either way, you’re probably going to be more impressed with their new boots than if they’d launched a line with different styles and pricing.
The new heel and toe versions are a bit different. The heel is slightly wider than the toe, and it has a longer heel strike. The toe will have a better feel with the heel, which might mean some of the heel is going to be more shock and frustration. But that’s a different story. The toe is a bit longer than the heel, and there’s a bit of a difference in the way its heel is positioned.
