Beware if you have bunions
Nice and squishy to walk on but hurts my bunions and top of foot. Not comfortable for someone who has ball of the foot issues.

Very comfortable and cute
These running shoes look great! The soles are very cushiony and have been comfortable for walking. There have been no issues with breaking them in. I only wish there was a bit more arch support.

Most uncomfortable New Balance ever
I've worn New Balance for over 15 years and these were the most uncomfortable sneakers.

Walking on Clouds
I feel like I’m walking on air! Very comfortable and I can stand on my feet all day wearing them or exercise, whichever I decide to use them for.

The name "Propel" Says it All
Between bunions, flat feet and arthritis, finding a comfortable sneaker is not always easy. I've worn the Propel for about 10 months now, and they are my favorite! Tons of support without being squishy, and they really do spring you forward. But I think my favorite feature is that the wide width version doesn't look like you're wearing a wide shoe. The roominess is there, but amazingly it doesn't look it. And TBH, most NB wides do look it, especially the Fresh Foam 800 series and up. Judging by the lack of color options, it looks like NB might be phasing the Propel out. I really hope they don't.
