New Balance 854 - Triathlon Week

I really like these shoes.

These are my first pair of New Balance shoes. I overpronate fairly seriously, so I need motion control. I used to wear mostly Saucony "grid" shoes. The motion control they use always made my feet feel like I'm running in clogs, since the whole heel is built up to prevent rolling.

These new balances are nice since there is only a small plastic "sway bar" on the side. They feel alot lighter on my feet and more responsive. I don't know who they will hold up in the long run, but so far I recommend them if you need stability shoes.
