Our take on the New Balance Fresh Foam X 840v1 Leather Walking Shoes

The Fresh Foam X 840v1 is New Balance's leather-and-mesh walking shoe built on a Fresh Foam X midsole with a 4 mm drop. It stands out for a waterproof leather upper, a cork insole and three width options, including extra wide. The ride is cushioned and stable rather than springy, which suits walkers and people on their feet all day more than runners. Against lighter mesh walkers it trades breathability for weather protection and a more structured fit.

Questions and answers

Is the New Balance 840v1 good for all-day walking?
Yes. The Fresh Foam X midsole and cork insole give a cushioned, stable ride that suits long walks and standing shifts. It is heavier than mesh walkers, so keep that in mind if you cover a lot of ground.
Does the 840v1 run true to size?
Most buyers take their usual New Balance size. If you are between sizes or wear thick socks, consider going up half a size, and use the wide or extra-wide option for broad feet.
Is it actually waterproof?
The leather and mesh upper is built to keep water out in rain and puddles. It is not a fully sealed boot, so deep water can still get in over the collar.
Can I run in the 840v1?
It is a walking shoe. The 4 mm drop and firm cork insole are tuned for walking, and at 9.3 oz it is heavier than most running shoes.
How does it compare with the mesh 840?
The leather version adds weather protection and a more structured fit but weighs more and runs warmer. Choose mesh for hot, dry climates and leather for wet or cool conditions.

At Shop Simon, for $97.00, as of our latest check.
