The New Balance 890 is an everyday shoe for the neutral runner who wants to run fast or feel fast in a surprisingly light package. The REVlite midsole foam is 30% lighter than traditional foams, but has a durability and steadfast ride expected in an everyday training shoe. This shoe has been created to meet the competitive requirements of world-class runner and Team New Balance member Andy Baddeley, whose name appears on the shoe. Colors: Silver + Blue
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Good shoe, but ease into it. .
Hello runners,
I'm a 48 year old male and run 35 miles per week. I moved from a neutral cushioning New Balance 759 shoe into the 890. They are definitely light and my speed improved an average of .2 MPH, which is pretty substantial. They fit well, nice and snug in the midsection with still some room in the forefoot. True to size if you own any NB products already.
Of course, that lightness comes at a cost, and that's in the form of less padding. Some doctors and running experts are now saying that less padding is actually better for you but, even if true, you might want to ease into running with these if you're weekly mileage is high. I noticed some aches and pains when I started with these and had to back off for a while.
Style-wise, I'd like to add that these shoes are different than other running shoes. Specifically, the uppers are made of a thinner, simpler material and the sole seems simpler too. Hate to say it, but the construction comes...

So far so good.
Realizing that I was a supine/neutral runner and had been running in a shoe for severe over-pronators (thanks fleet feet!) I went to my local running store and hashed it out with the staff for a bit about my gait, stride, step, etc... Well we tried a few different models and prior to today I've been in Mizuno's or Saucony's and personally love the shoe... well New Balance, for some reason I never took seriously, never had interest in wearing - until today.
My foot has a high arch and is quite narrow and this shoe was a perfect match. They had designed this shoe differently than any of there products with a nod to the minimilist/forefoot striking crowd but still true to those that heel strike and require a degree of cushioning.
Well day one was a 10 mile break in. I'm 6'5'', about 190-200 pounds and took it pretty easy this first day. I loved how the shoe gripped at the cement effectively. How it snugly wraps around my foot without having any pressure points, yet...
Wonderful shoe for those long runs!
I purchased this shoe after doing a 5 mile test run in them, courtesy of my local running store. I loved the feel and the cushioning immediately! The light weight was a definite positive too! I wanted a shoe that I could wear for race distances ranging from half marathon to marathon and I found it in this shoe. It has been a joy to wear! My legs feel fresher after long, hard runs when wearing this shoe! I love the styling and look of this shoe also! I am very happy with this shoe and would highly recommend it! Two of my long distance running friends have also purchased this shoe and are enjoying its attributes immensely!
