I bought these shoes in local sport store two months ago and used them mostly for running on the road (about 80 miles so far). I am 5'10'' tall and weigh 170#, running 30-45 miles/week. I usually buy NB shoes since they have wide sizes 2E that I need, they are very comfortable for me and durable. I owned previous versions of this model, namely NB 769 and NB 760 which lasted well over 450 miles. Hence, I expected to get similar product. Unfortunately, this is not the case. When compared to the previous models NB 860 is way too stiff and feels like that it has no cushioning in either heels or front. Lack of flexibility is the worst issue if you run on the road. Design has also changed and 860 looks cheaper than previous models, they also removed bubble wrap laces which was a nice little touch. Overall, this is not what I expected for $100. Shoes may be good for larger person or running on the trail but without putting extra money and getting softer insoles they are worthless for me. I hope that NB can come up with better model next time.

By Jonas Byrd
I've put twenty miles on these since I received them last week and have enjoyed them. I have a wide forefoot, low arch, average width heel, and over-pronate. A local sporting goods store recommended this particular model for me. This is the first running shoe I've been professionally "fitted" for. My knees have never felt better since I started running in them. My foot measures a 9.5 2E exactly, this shoe fits perfectly with enough room in the toe box for flex and foot expansion. To top it off, it's US made. Great shoe!

By Thomas M. Griffin
I use to run in new balance 760s, the predecessors (including marathons). I was disappointed when NB discontinued the 760s and was hesitant to try the 860s and ran in my 760s fo far too long... Big mistake. I gave in and ordered the 860s, these shoes looked different and felt different from the 760s... I was already doubting my purchase. I laced up the shoes and went for a run...WOW... This were fantastic! They are lighter and have better heel support. highly recommend!!! Ps I also use to run in the ultra expensive ascics kayano... I felt these felt just as good!
