New Balance slash 'life changing' unisex trainers by 50% to lowest price yet
They have been described by shoppers as the "most comfortable" trainers that they have ever worn.
Fitness enthusiasts are in for a real treat, as New Balance is offering up to 50 per cent off on a range of trainers. This incredible deal includes a "very comfy" unisex pair.
The WRPD Runner Shoes, typically priced at £155, are now available for just £77.50 in the 'moonrock with light mushroom' colourway, making them half-price.
This is the largest price reduction we've seen on these trainers this year, so bargain hunters may want to move quickly. The New Balance shoes are still available in all sizes, from 3.5 to 12.5.
There's also a taupe version included in the sale, although the discount on these is slightly less. Customers can currently snap them up for £93 instead of £155 - a saving of 40 per cent.
Most sizes for this colourway are still in stock too.
For those who don't mind splashing out on new footwear, we've spotted Made in Chelsea star Louise Thompson's New Balance M2002 Sneakers on Farfetch, priced at £115.
The brunette beauty was seen wearing the grey and white colourway earlier this year, and her exact pair can still be found in a variety of sizes, reports the Liverpool Echo. Their 2000s-inspired silhouette sits atop a chunky rubber sole.
Elsewhere, JD Sports has slashed the price of these adidas Women's ADIZERO Boston trainers in black to £90, down from £140. These mid-to-long distance running shoes feature a lightweight mesh upper, providing a breezy feel.
New Balance's WRPD Runner Shoes feature a 'uniquely conceptual design' with a focus on creating 'a sense of fluid motion' courtesy of sculpted contours and wavy features.
The shoes' mesh upper is a combination of knit, leather, and wool materials, complemented by the FuelCell foam for an energetic stride.
These unisex shoes have garnered acclaim from customers, with one notably satisfied buyer stating: "My job requires a lot of walking and standing, and I usually have cramps in my legs/feet by the end of the day.
"My life changed after putting those shoes on - they are so comfortable, my legs are no longer cramping after work anymore! I feel my feet are being hugged inside the shoes."
Another pleased consumer claimed they found the "most comfortable shoe to exist," adding: "Comfiest shoe out there and on trend with the dad sneaker look."
Despite these endorsements, not all feedback has been glowing, as one commenter pointed out an issue with size, saying: "I like this shoe, it's comfortable and makes me like an inch taller which I always appreciate. But the sizing is off.
Fashion deal of the week
Fashion fans looking for a dress that will standout at all their summer events will need to hear about this one from Roman.
The high street chain's Royal Blue Rose Print Button Detail Maxi Dress, hailed as "perfect for the warmer seasons", is now on sale for £35 after being dropped from £48 - saving 27 percent overall.
With its "stunning" all-over rose print and modest midaxi length hemline, this particular frock will look perfect at any fancy occasions this season. Since it offers a bold design, we'd advise pairing it with nude-coloured heels and neutral accessories.
The flowy, comfortable woven fabric and short sleeves make it an ideal airy choice for when the temperatures rise again. It also features a chic V-neckline, alongside a shirred waistline that will 'cinch' in the figure for a flattering effect.
Complete with buttons down the front, the high street firm also advises pairing its £35 sale dress with a denim jacket on those summer days when the weather is a little bit chillier.
Beloved for its vibrant and bold style, one five-star review read: "One of the five-star reviews read: "This dress is amazing. I've had so many compliments.
"Lovely Silky material, floor length and such vibrant colours and so easy to just wash and wear. Suitable for weddings and occasions or just perfect for holidays and summer days. A real head turner... Love it."
Someone else added: "Another pleased purchaser wrote: "Just love this dress, lovely colours, beautiful material, perfect for my upcoming holiday."
"I'm a solid 6.5 size, and I always wear 6.5's in New Balance, but I ordered 6.5 in this shoe and it was an inch too big. I'm returning for a half size smaller, but I'm a bit worried even that will be too big."
But another New Balance fan commented: "Super comfy shoe, I am totally in love. I am glad I made this purchase, its now my daily sneaker."
The WRPD Runner Shoes in 'moonrock with light mushroom' are now available for a steal at £77.50 (down from £155) on the New Balance website.
