NB 1123, March 29, 2008
By M. Halper
These are a replacement after many pairs of NB 1122s. Still a great running shoe, but for some reason they’ve shortened the length of the tongue. Its hard to grasp the tongue to prevent it from sliding down when you put the shoe on.

Outstanding Shoe Quality and Fit, April 14, 2009
By Douglas Thomas
Thanks New Balance for making great shoes!
I have “Feet of Despair” described as a “B” width, a narrow heel, low volume, weak ankles (trashed ankle ligaments), and a very low arch. And, if the shoe toe box is too narrow, I get blisters on the lower edge on several of my small toes.
These shoes are built on a “SL-2″ Last and give me the fit, cushioning and stability I require and a bonus of never suffering from a blister! The substantial arc on the heel cup also eliminates up-down heel slip.
Because New Balance offers a complete range of widths and shoe lasts, no longer does a person with narrow feet have to purchase shoes and accept the standard sales pitch/response “These shoes run narrow.” What New Balance offers is a great fitting shoe for any person who will take the time to figure out what shoe model and Last works for them.
Once I figure out the model shoe and last that works for me, I have confidence New Balance will be making it for several years. The 1123 is the third NB model shoe I have used (continuously) in about 20 years and each model has always been a performance improvement over the old one. The 1123 is a fairly new model and this is my second pair.
You probably won’t find New Balance shoes in narrow sizes on the bargain sales rack but if you are willing to make fair payment for outstanding quality, you will be satisfied.
A final note- a few years ago, I experienced a heel liner wear problem (shredded) when I switched to a new Model 1122. I sent the shoes to NB and they treated me respectfully and fairly by supplying a replacement pair in the next generation Model 1123 shoes. Great Customer Support!
