Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Moved to this shoe after experiencing some pretty serious knee pain, resumed running after 2 years break. Was wearing NB 768 before. Got my stride analyzed and the guy at the store tried to sell me some expensive $$$ shoes. But the analysis was that overpronation was more severe in one foot, and feet have gotten flatter than I used to remember them being. Damn, I am really over the hill now I guess. Time for serious motion control.
Read reviews for this one and saw it was identical in description to the $$$ shoes recommended above and took a chance. Wonderful feeling running without pain, amazing fit. I also went longer (from size 9 to 9.5), and narrower (from width 4E to 2E). This is a really roomy shoe, so be careful ordering if you used to wear 4Es before.
Two half marathons later, I am happily ordering a second pair. Rock on NB! See you after I run a Big One hopefully.

P.S. The grip on this shoe is outstanding. I am continuing to wear my older pair on hiking, and it grips better on the trails than my hiking shoes. Of course, the width is an issue: you don't want to wear it on really long downhills.
