I purchased these shoes for four reasons. 1. I have had great luck with New Balance shoes. 2. I loved the blue and grey color. 3. They were lightweight. 4. They were very comfortable. Within two weeks, I noticed the right shoe had a squeak which got progressively worse. A few days later, I noticed the sole was coming off. A day later, I noticed the sole was coming off the left shoe. I have never had shoes of any brand fall apart like these. I can still wear them, but I have to be very careful when taking them off so I don't pull the soles the rest of the way off. Is this the type of quality New Balance has now? I sure hope not because I have been more than pleased with the quality vs. dollar value of my past NB purchases.
EDIT: I contacted New Balance a few months back about these shoes. They told me to send them in and they would replace them. Their customer service was great. They let me choose another pair of similar cost. I ended up with their 770 V2 which has been a fine pair of shoes for a couple months. I wear them almost every day and have noticed no wear. Every company will have a dud every once in a while. My bad experience with this shoe has ended up being a good experience. New Balance is still at the top of my list of shoes to purchase.

These shoes are not up to New Balance normal standards. On my last pair the sole cam unglued from the boot part after 6 months or so. I figured any company can have a clunker so I ordered another pair.
After wearing them less than a month, and only indoors and to and from work, the same delamination happened on the second pair. I am working with NB to replace them with a different model now.
Check out the NB web site. They are discontinued. Now you know why.
It's a real shame, the shoes were LIGHT and comfortable.

I used to run 20 miles a week but then I hurt my left knee. I tried all other running shoes including adidas, reebok, nike and asics while still hurting my knees. I could barely run 10 miles if not walking. Then I met these shoes. I never feel any pain on my knee again and I'm back running. Thanks New Balance!
