My review:

This is simply the best shoe I've ever owned. I'm on my 6th pair of 757s and will soon graduate to the 758 mostly due to availability and not even because I think the 757 is obsolete. I've tried all sorts of brands and New Balance's width availability has given me the most options and the 757 neutral/cushion has proven the best fit for me. I've found the shoe ideal for training at all varieties of distance. They have plenty of support for long runs and are still light enough for speed work. I really can't praise the shoe enough.
