Trying to decide between a couple shoes and wondering if folks have opinions on either of them.

NB710: http://www.newbalance.com/New-Balance-710/MT710,default,pd.html?dwvar_MT710_color=Black_with_Orange_and_Grey&start=31&cgid=16000

NB880: http://www.newbalance.com/New-Balance-880/M880-T,default,pd.html?dwvar_M880-T_color=Red_with_Black&start=34&cgid=101000

I know the NB fit and they've been good to me in the past, but of course they change models every few months it seems so I can't ever get the same shoe twice. I've used some from the 600 series (comfortable, but got pretty thin pretty fast) and the 813s, I believe, which were good except I've just worn them out.

Any info/preferences are appreciated!

nb 810

The 810 is still available, and pretty cheap at the moment. That’s the PL-1 last.

I think that’s the same as the 814 last though I’m not certain.

Agreed on the 5/600 series, thin and feel cheap, ok to use on day hikes but the tread and shoes just don’t feel like they grip the trail.
