This is my 2nd pair of the New Balance Fuel Cell Echo sneaker. They are sooo comfortable…lightweight with plenty of room in the toe box. One issue you might want to be aware of: I bought the white/orange pair in my normal size (7.5 medium). They fit perfectly. When it came time to order the black, I ordered my normal 7.5; they were short and scrunched my toes. I exchanged them for the next 1/2 size up (8 medium; those fit perfectly) and were as comfortable as my original white/orange pair. I use these sneakers for short or long walks (wore them walking around DisneyWorld for a week) and general running around town doing errands. If comfort is important to you, give these sneakers a try.
