The WRPD runners by New Balance have earned an impressive average rating of 4.7 out of five, with numerous reviews praising their comfort. As reported by MyLondon, one satisfied customer shared: “They are extremely comfortable, the best I ever had. As there are half size number I could find the perfect fit for mine.”
Another happy buyer said: “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.”
A glowing five-star review exclaims: “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 pleased buyer shared their experience: “I love them, they are very cool and comfortable. I wore them all day at Disney and my feet felt great.”
However, a different perspective was offered by another customer who observed: “Comfy to walk in but in no way could they be considered running shoes.”
Meanwhile, another shopper added their two pence: “Look good but not that comfortable, to be fair I normally wear 1080’s and they are the best for comfort.”
Unlike other trainers on the market, the WRPD Runner has a conceptual design with a combination of exaggerated proportions and minimalist restraint. New Balance described the footwear: “This new silhouette suggests a sense of fluid motion, with the sculpted contours of a full-length FuelCell midsole and an array of wavy accents surrounding an understated knit upper.”
The FuelCell midsole is designed to “deliver propulsive feel to help drive you forward”.
