Not what was expected
Really bad shoes, too much tight, after 6 months the sole on the sides was peel off, I didn't expect to have a bad experience with New Balance sneakers.
Rating :  
Comfortable
Very comfortable but snug shoe. Like wearing socks with treads. Good for trail running or hiking.

Comfortable fit - great design
This is the first time I've ever purchased shoes online, and I have to say it was a good first experience! Good thing I listed to other reviews regarding the fact this model runs a tad small. I'm usually a size 9, but I purchased a size 9.5 and it fit perfectly. The shoe is very comfortable and I put it to the test immediately by hiking/jogging on some rugged trails in Wisconsin and it came through beautifully. I definitely recommend this shoe!

True to size, light weight runner but strong enough for XT.
So far these MT811's show good comfort and fit. The front box (EE) is finally the proper size for a 10.5 sized shoe. The heel is high and rounded with no friction points plus a small attached utility loop. The uppers are very light, impressively so (compared to the NB 4 and 5 series) and they also breath as well as any running show, no clammy feet in the summer.
This combines into a very "not there" feel which is very comfortable but requires you pay better attention to your foot fall form so you don't make any mistakes in your outdoor adventures. Impact response is good, maybe too good as downward declines push the foot forward more than I'd like, but that will fade with time I'm guessing. There is also plenty of room for inserts and the eyelet holes for the laces don't leave much flexibility for fancy lacing, but are adequate otherwise.

double trouble
Purchased 4 weeks before a 10 hour adventure race. Wore them around town to break them in and they seemed comfy.But when used on the terrain they were intended they failed miserably. These trail running shoes have no business at all being off road. The course i was on was a mix of dirt, bigger rocks and fist size rocks plus roots. In other words a normal mountain trail. The simple summary, flimsy. I felt every pebble, rock and twig through the sole and was absorbed by my sore feet. By the end of the run section my feet were really in pain from the impacts. This has never happened to me with any trail running shoes previous. These may be good for running on grass but have no business at all in ANY trail situation. To add insult to injury "both" the front rubber bumpers peeled down. I contacted New Balance directly and added pics to show them how the toes peeled but have not heard word one from them. Warning....buy something else as the 811 trail runners are junk

Awesome shoe!
I bought these for my husband. He works in a medical clinic, and he needed good support, as he is on his feet most of the time. These shoes are perfect for him. He feet don't get tired or sore, even after an eight hour shift. These shoes are perfect for anyone who is on their feet a lot.

Great Shoe
I walk about 22 miles a week and these shoes didn't even have to be broke in. I just started walking in them and they are great. I have a hard time finding my size in stores it's great to beable to order them and they fit just right. Thanks!

Try them on!
Great feeling shoe. Breathes very well and the cushion is nice on the trail and on hard road mile after mile. This is the first pair of shoes I've bought online, I figured after 10 years of wearing new balance the size would be the same and unfortunately the same 10 1/2 was a little small in this style. The first time I did strenuous exercise in them I ended up with a very sore and bruised big toe. I will go up a half size but stay with the MT811s...they are light-weight, soft and cushiony and the air goes right through vented mesh creating a nice feel all around. Just try them on first for size!

Questions & Answers
Question : Is wearing "cushioned" running shoes alright for a neutral runner?
Is wearing "cushioned" running shoes alright for a neutral runner?
Answer:
Look you need to go to a specialty running store like Fleet Feet Sports. They size and get a good look at your feet. Then they put you on a tredmill and do a video analysis of oyur gait and feet to determine what type of sheo you should be wearing. But since you already know your a neutral runner a cushioned shoe is recommended. The thing is you need to try on different types of shoe to determine what fits you best. Since all feet are different all running shoe companies are different. And when you go up in price on a neutal shoe you are paying for more cushion. But i've seen people pick the cheaper shoe with less cushion without knowing the price because that is what feels good on your feet. So regaurdless if you're a neutral runner or someone who overpronates you just have to try different shoes out and the more you pay the more cushion the shoe is suppose to be depending on the feet.

Question : What are some running shoes for heavy runners?
I am a heavy runner who supinates and has an extremely high arch. Can anyone suggest a good cushioned running shoe?
Answer:
I'm not sure if you have them in your area, but a store called Front Runner (or another one called Fleet Feet) will set you up with the best pair of shoes for your running style. They will watch you run for a little while and then give you a couple different options.
Mizuno has several pairs with support. Go to Mizuno.com and search on men's footwear - click on Support. Those will be what you are looking for. The Inspire is a good looking shoe and is lightweight.
Don't listen to people saying "quit running". It's great that you are being active. Running is the all time best calorie burning workout you can do. DEFINITELY get fitted or your knees will hurt.

Question : Is underarmour shoes good for running a marathon?
I bought new underarmour shoes today from finishline, they are the new prototype running shoes. I am running the chicago marathon this year (2008) and i want to know if those shoes are good to run in. The associate at finish line said they would work (eventhough the shoe is designed for speed). Any ideas? I figured the shoe has good cushioning and other things, so it might work but i also want to make sure i am not killing my knees, (I am 22 years old).
Answer:
I have been running for 8 years now. Though I am biased towards Nike as a brand, I would recommend you to go to a running-specific store, like Fleet Feet in Carrboro, NC. They can help you find the right shoe because people buy shoes that aren't necessarily right for their feet, but more comfortable or fashionable. But after you get the correct shoes or even if you haven't, I would go to any major athletics store and ask the sales associates because they are getting paid to know the products they are selling. But make sure you state the use/reason for buying the shoes. Good luck!!!

Question : What kind of running shoes should i wear if i have bad knees?
my knees are a little sensitive and i wanna see if there are shoes that are reasonably priced and can help cushion the pressure when i run.
Answer:
running is high impact sport so knee problems are common if you run alot.
you could try sofsole, it's a gel insert for your shoes but some people say they are too mushy, but in this case it might be good for you.
Some shoes have built in gel cushions, they help, but usually they are harder then the gel inserts. A tight fitting shoe might also help a lot.

Question : I'm a high mileage runner and need a new stability/very cushioned running shoe. What do you suggest?
I need cushion on my forefoot and the rest of my foot. I run in Nike Equalon 2+ and they are too squishy and flatten out after just 50 miles. I loved the straight Nike Kantara and Nike Equalon+, but they are discontinued. Please help!
Answer:
Well since you know that you need a stability/ very cushioned running shoe, then you probably already know that the skylon is definitely not for you. Its a neutral shoe with medium cushioning.
Since you want a shoe with extra cushioning, the following would fall under what I like to call the Cadillac running shoes series: Asics Kayano, Nike Equalon, and the Brooks Infiniti. I highly recommend the Brooks Infiniti. It is definitely the most cushioned stability shoe on the market. And since its a Brooks Shoe, it is guaranteed to last you at least 350 miles before you start to feel the "bounce" diminish.
Hope that helps. Oh and I'm a collegiate runner who also works in a running specialty shop, so my suggestions aren't unfounded.

Question : What kind of running shoes should I buy?
My ankles are slightly pronated (they curve inwards) and tend to get sore after I exercise. Should I buy cushioned, stabilized, or lightweight, etc. running shoes?
Answer:
I don't know where you live, but where I live in Southern California, their are two shoe shops highly esteemed in my opinon: Fleet Feet, and A Snail's Pace. I suggest looking those stores up online and see if there are any locations near you. Anyways, they do a rigorous examination of your shoe, and then they choose the shoe they think is the best for you, you run around in them for 5-10 minutes, if you like them buy them, if you don't they pick another one. Usually they know which shoe is best for you. You might also want to do some research online and see if any shoes are specifically made for your case, because I know they make shoes with different support levels, and even shoes for flat feet. Also, before you buy them, make sure you run in them for a good 10 minutes around the store, walking up and down the aisle won't tell you whether they will hurt after a while or not. Hope this helps!

Question : Why is too much cushion in a running shoe bad?
I read somebody saying that Nike Shox sucked because they have too much cushion... but how is that bad in a running shoe.. wouldn't you want a lot of "shock" to absorm the impact? I know I would.. I currently have shinsplints in my left leg, and achilles tendinitis in my right heel.... I think cushion is a might fine idea.. lol
Answer:
You have to have a shoe that is best for you.
Some people need a soft shoe, the problem is if it has too much cushion you do not have as much control.
Meaning that your foot moves around, and if you have ankle problems you are more prone to injury.
Also if you have a foot plant problem you are not going to have the correct that was designed in the shoe if the cushion is too soft.

Question : Best running shoes for cushion support? What to get?
It's a choice between Asics Gel Nimbus or Adidas Supernova Cushion 7s..... whats the best out of these two only?
Thanks!
Answer:
Honestly, I wouldn't listen to people's recommendations on here. Their footstrike is probably different than yours. Their foot shape could even be different. All of these things could effect what is good for you vs good for them. I would go to a running store and have them fit you with shoes. Try both on. And also, be open to possibly getting a different pair of shoes if neither one works out.

Question : Do running shoes lose their cushioning/stability even if you don't run in them?
I've heard that running shoes lose this cushioning even if they are not used. For example, lets say that i bought two pairs of shoes. I used one while the other remained in the closet brand new in box. Would the latter, that has been sitting in the closet without use for about two months still have the same cushion/stability as it did when i first bought it? I would think so, but i have heard that this is not the case. Any ideas? Preferably from experts in the running, shoe, and/or podiatry field. Thanks!
Answer:
I would think so. I mean, all shoes get worn down and worn out eventually. Right?

Question : What are good mens running shoes to buy?
I run on pavement around my neighborhood. I try to do 3 miles a day. Maybe something with cushion/durability. What are some good mens running shoes?
Answer:
My favorite running shoes are Asics, just as everyone else said, but they are not for everyone. There are different types of shoes for different types of runners. It all depends on how you move your feet when you run: do you pronate (turn your foot inward) or supinate (roll your foot outward)? How heavy are you? How often do you run? Are you prone to injury? These are all things to consider when selecting the appropriate running shoe.
The best thing to do is to go to a nearby running specialty store. A worker there should talk with you and watch you run and can reccomend the right type of shoe for you. Good luck with your running.
