The WRPD runners from New Balance have garnered an average star rating of 4.7/5, and several customers echo similar sentiments in the review section.

One customer wrote: “They are extremely comfortable, the best I ever had. As there are half-size numbers, I could find the perfect fit for [me].” [SIC]

Another satisfied purchaser commented: “I really liked these sneakers, I only wear this brand and this model is the most comfortable. They look stylish. All my friends liked them, I will recommend and buy more.”

This glowing five-star review proclaims: “Purchase now. I love this so much that I bought it twice (two different colours). The MOST COMFORTABLE shoe ever and I own a large selection of gym shoes.”

Another satisfied customer remarked: “After reading reviews, I thought I have to try. Best shoes ever.”

Yet, one reviewer offered a more tempered view: “Comfy to walk in but in no way could they be considered running shoes.”

A different opinion was also shared: “Look good but not that comfortable, to be fair I normally wear 1080’s and they are the best for comfort.”
