Fresh Foam 880 v15
Great support. Purchased for plantar fasciitis pain. Happy these came in narrow width. I have worn NB for years but styles and fits have changed in past couple of years. I believe these will be a good purchase.

I love these shoes! They fit my feet perfectly. I really like the heel depth and heel support. They have great tread on the bottom and wear well. I always wear New Balance and purchase a new pair about every six months. Perfect shoe!

I love the New Balance 880! I have had so many pairs and I will continue with this series as long as I can. The inserts are a must. I replace them with each new pair of shoes that I get. I have no feet issues!
