They’re already falling apart after 3 months
I love these sneakers and I don’t wear them often but I looked at the heel tonight and it’s already starting to fall apart. I usually always buy New Balance because they’re comfortable and roomy in the toe area but I’m very disappointed that these are falling apart so quickly. I have an old pair of New Balance running shoes from probably more than 10 years ago and they’re still in great shape but I’ve had these for three months and they’re already breaking. They don’t make them like they used to!

I saw this product on a list of recommended weightlifting shoes as the best value for the price, and since I've already been loving wearing similar new balances for every day use I decided to try these. I have wide feet although they're small (6W) and I think they fit nicely (I personally would prefer maaarginally wider but since it's a soft shoe I think they could just be worn a little looser at the laces or something). The hard heel is perfect for heavy weightlifting and also stability exercises that I normally have a lot of trouble with wearing for example running shoes. I would usually just take off my shoes for squats/deadlifts/etc. but with these not only can I keep them on but they help stabilize. I love the red colorway too, they look and feel great. Would recommend.

Shoe is extremely comfortable, perfect for weight training - not a walking or running shoe, it’s very flat footed, again best used for weight training. Great outside sole. Shoe laces have texture and don’t require readjustment. Removable inside soles. Stylish in black/grey. I really love these shoes. I have a wide foot so appreciate wide options.

I’ve been searching for weight lifting shoes and these are perfect for squats and deadlifts! I also can use these on the cross-trainer machine for my cardio.
One of the reasons why I like these shoes is that my feet are a bit wider and apparently shoes like Nike are not great for that.

I wouldn’t recommend them for running though as they are not made for that.

I got the black and they look perfect.

Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2020
Started Crossfit recently and really wanted some designated training shoes (which I've realized is a must with this sport). Never been a fan of Nike's due to my flat feet but I really wanted to compare these against the Reebok Nanos so I tried both on at a local running store. I was surprised to see how comfortable the Minumus Prevail felt compared to the Nanos, which still had too much of an arch for me.
I usually wear wide in my Clark's and Keds, but the regular width fit just fine for me. The stability is a great improvement over my tennis shoes but I can feel some pain after running or jumping rope - not sure if that's the fault of the shoe or my flat feet so I'll seek out some orthotics.
-1 star for the above mentioned pain and shoe laces that need to be double knotted in order to stay tied.

I bought these shoes to wear in the house for strength training. They are very flat and stiff, but for my needs they work fine. Don't plan to hike or run in them. They really are a cute color, though!

I absolutely love these shoes! I usually wear a 9.5/10. I went with the 9.5 and still have about a finger's worth of space between my big toe and the tip of the shoe. I have always been a fan of Reebok; however, they changed up their shoe design on a pair I really liked and no longer sell another pair I liked. So, I figured I'd give these a try. I am 110% satisfied with these shoes! If I could give them 10 stars I would. I have worn them almost every day for two months and they are still in excellent shape. I will be ordering another pair. If I am being honest, I am actually going to order two more pairs!

Love these shoes! I use them for crossfit and for trail running/walking. This is my second pair of these shoes. Very impressed with the comfort and durability. Love that I can wear them for any activity. I have a narrow fit and purchased the normal width and they fit great.

This was my second minimus style shoe, as I really did not my first, and this shoe is so comfortable you will not know you are wearing a shoe with minimal cushioning. Great for strengthening the footbed and ankle
stability.
