Product Description

The running shoes of the 1970s might best be described as deceptively simple. While lacking the visible technology and aggressive design of later years, the innovations of the ‘70s would lay the foundation for modern performance. The 237 is a contemporary reinterpretation of ‘70s running heritage that melds a range of heritage design inspirations into one deceptively simple, exceptionally versatile, contemporary silhouette. An EVA midsole, herringbone outsole and streamlined upper offer a classic launching point for modern flourishes like oversized N branding, extended midsole length, and gator inspired foxing and mudguard. You could call the cohesion of the 237’s familiar feel and exaggerated updates the simplest way to make a statement.

Customers say

Customers find these sneakers comfortable and versatile, noting they go with basically everything and are inexpensive. The style receives positive feedback, with one customer describing them as a gauzy white oversized shirt for relaxed elegance, and the color matches as described. However, the quality and size receive mixed reviews - while some find them well-made and true to size, others report they're poorly made and run larger than expected. Additionally, the arch support is lacking according to multiple customers.

    I wanted to love these shoes, but they are a bit uncomfortable. I'm familiar with New Balance shoes, but these were surprisingly heavy for my feet and not as comfortable as I would like. I kept them and wear them pretty much every day, but I am not sure I would buy them again next time. They seem durable, and I like the color a lot.

    I found reviews helpful here (e.g. buy half a size bigger), so I wanted to share my takeaways from the New Balance 237's. First of all, the shoes look like pics and are super cute. They're all over hip boutiques right now in NYC and Europe, so you'd be on trend buying these.

    A huge caveat though -- they are SUPER uncomfortable and cheaply made. The shoes feel basically like soft foam and the arch support is non-existent. When I put these on, I can literally see my ankles collapsing inward. They also have no cushioning which means your feet can start hurting if you're spending the whole day walking or on your feet. And for me, all day walking around the city resulted in lower back pain. Fun times. Ouch.

    I compared against another pair of 'fashion' NB's I have (vs. the higher end running specific pairs), and the other pair were much more comfortable. I ended up buying a really pricey shoe insert ($55) so that the 237's don't mess up my feet, but the combined price point definitely gave me pause. if I know I'm walking long distances, I definitely aim for my Hokas instead.

    Would I buy these again? Maybe? They're easy enough to slip on for grocery store runs, but I also bought these before the pricing went up 20-30$, so I think I wouldn't pay $80 + $55 for these. YMMV!

    I normally take a 6.5W, or a 7W if I want to wear heavy socks. I bought the 7W, and they were too small with a thin sock. They also felt very cheap, not like New Balance shoes I’ve had in the past. The fabric was puckered where it was sewn to the felt around the toe bed. They might be worth $25; not the $100 I paid for them.
