text: Was proud to purchase a product made in the USA, later to find out New Balance sold out to foreign manufactures. And the shoes I received proved the cheap labor and materials. The left shoe appeared different from the right. After minimal use the left shoe separated around the side forefoot area. Initially I thought when I ordered a New Balance product it was made in America. I'm beyond the 30 day return policy and out $140. Will not buy NB again!
