How it ranks
The New Balance 870 v4 is one of the strongest daily trainers in our data. Value and looks are its strongest sub-ratings. The rating rests on 3 runner reviews and 3 other rated shoes in the 870 product line. Another 9 reviews would set the confidence on this shoe's own reviews.
Confidence
How settled the rating is against every other rated shoe. A shoe can rate high on confidence with relatively few reviews of its own when its product line has a long record and external ratings from retailer sites agree. Confidence will score low when we have few ratings or when runners disagree.
