New Balance has won my heart and devotion over the last year; its performance today only solidified that love. I'm on my third pair of New Balance shoes, two of which are the same model (WT 101s). Having gotten over my wistful hope for a pair of running shoes that doesn't make my feet look like they belong to a clown, I succumbed to the notion of buying a pair of shoes for their utility and whatnot. New Balance really has excelled in this area and, as a fantastic bonus, the WT 101s don't make my feet look at all like a clown's. Before lacing up today, I found a rock embedded in the sole of one of my shoes. Expecting it to pop out easily, I was surprised it was hard pressed (pun intended?) to even budge, as if it had been cemented (again, pun intended?) in place. After prying it out with some office supplies, I found it was actually a rock about a half inch long, sharply pointed at the end, lodged deep into my shoe. I'm not sure where I picked up this clinger, but I'm glad New Balance was there to save my heel from some serious pain.
