These shoes are great and I saved about $40 over purchasing in the local New Balance store.

I tried these shoes on along with a whole spat of running sneakers. While I’d never fork over the $140 list price at my local store for a single pair of shoes, I must say that the heritage 993 is extremely soft and comfortable. The fabric or animal skin (not sure what it is) that lines the inside of the shoe is creamy to the touch, like suede.
The price is the only thing that kept me from yanking the sneakers from the shelf and purchasing them on the spot. If you look hard enough you can find similarly comfortable shoes in the $50 – $70 range, some with the same thickness of the sole. I found a pair that had gel cushioning from the brand spelled OASIS that seemed to match the quality of these at a lesser price – not quite perfect, but close.
Unfortunately I was not able to test the Heritage shoes during a run, but for the few hops I took to the mirror they minimized the impact like a dream. They will definitely remain on my wish list until they come down in price, or I save.
