Great looking shoe. It is pretty comfortable...could use a little more arch support. But, overall I recommend this shoe. Also, I ordered this shoe at 9:00 p.m. and got it the next morning! Zappos is such a great site to buy shoes from! I love them.

Great looking shoe - I love this shoe. It is very comfortable on my wide feet. I get a lot of compliments on the shoe as I'm out running errands and such.

I love these shoes!!! I have always worn New Balance, but these are so light and airy that I am thinking of getting some in other colors! They do run just a bit snug. I normally wear an 8 and bought an 8 1/2 in this shoe and it fits perfectly! I bought the purple (which is really maroon) because it looked like it would match our school colors, which are maroon and gold. It was exactly what I was looking for! Try these...you'll love them!

I think this shoe has a very flat bottom with no visible or "feelable" arch, which surprised me for a NB shoe. Also, the removable sole is almost paper thin, also with no cushion whatsoever. Good points - the overall style and look of the shoe, a good width heel (not too wide, it hugs and holds the heel). I'd prefer another 1/4" width in the toe box, however, as I have to wear "corn pads" on the little toe with these shoes.

The new work shoe - I originally ordered this shoe in my usual size, but had to return it and order it a size up. The shoe is extremely comfortable and it doesn't look like an athletic shoe. I have the cream colored shoe. I teach middle school all day and my feet have been hurting so bad that amputation couldn't have been more painful. I wear this shoe with my dress pants and while nobody will ever call it stylish, it looks okay. I have had many compliments on the shoe and have recommended it for its extreme comfort. You will love this shoe.

Cute but not for problem feet - I love these shoes. They are cute and light and seem great. However, they have a thin sole and don't offer much support. Given my problems with pronating, plantar fasciitis, etc. I had to send them back. Darn. I really liked them.

These are the best shoes I've found during my pregnancy. They accommodate my wide foot bed, are very light weight and look great. I can walk forever in them which is hard to say about most shoes in later pregnancy.

Excellent running shoe. Best I've ever worn. Super light and needed no break-in period at all! Bought 2nd pair and I am considering grabbing a 3rd before they are discontinued. Needed a half size larger.

Love These Shoes!
I bought this shoe as my "run around, grocery, etc." shoe. It is light weight, but offers lovely support. While I do not think it would be good for any serious running, running after children and errands are certainly within this shoes capability! I got the raspberry and taupe combo and just love the color.

Great Shoes/Fast, Free Shipping -
I love these shoes! This is my second pair of them and I like them just as much as the first pair. Very, comfortable and lightweight. They do run small so order a 1/2 size larger than the size you normally wear. I was also impressed by the quick shipping from Zappos. I placed my order and received the shoes the next day!

They are very comfortable and light weight. Your feet and legs are not tired at the end of the day because of the weight.

Comfortable and light all around shoe -
These are very light New Balance with a moderate arch support. I cannot wear heavy athletic shoes. I even wear them without socks and they are great! I always order 1/2 size up in New Balance.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Rykas because these are also less heavy of an athletic shoe.

Loved it. Super light, great for trail and street running. Buy a 1/2 size larger. Mesh makes shoes easy to clean and also helps stay cool.

These shoes were exactly what I wanted - light, comfortable, easy to throw on. I wore them all over London the first time out of the box - and wore them sockless… and they did great.

WR790 review -
I like this NB very much. They’re better looking and lighter feeling than other NB's I have. This shoe can take my orthotic well.

A good everyday shoe.
This is a nice looking shoe. Nice weight, great color choices, comfortable. I wear it everyday for normal activity. I'm an under pronator and my custom orthotics do not fit this shoe. That's why I gave this shoe 4 stars instead of 5. I use a different shoe with a corrective arch and heel for serious workouts.

Nice look, but not great fit -
I really liked the shoe, but it had no arch support for me. I recently started a boot camp class with running and needed a good shoe. This was not it. I ended up keeping the shoe and I ordered another brand from Zappos.

New Balance WR790 -
I have worn out three pairs of this shoe...it's comfortable, durable, attractive, and is a great overall shoe for the money. It has a tailored, sporty look with a roomy toe box, fits snugly at the ankle, and comes in multiple colors. Good value for the money. I wore off the tread before I wore out the body and that's with lots and lots of use.

Perfect shoe -
I bought this shoe to perform multiple tasks as a running/hiking/walking around town shoe, and so far it has been awesome. They are SUPER light and they fit my narrow feet perfectly. I am between sizes 7.5 and 8, and I ordered up and they fit like a dream. I bought them in the color "surf" and they are so cute! I want to buy them in every color now!

Suitable for travel -
I wore this shoe when touring Florence and Rome. It was okay, but probably would have been better if I had gotten one with more support in the arch and the heel. My orthotics would not fit it. No serious problems, however, and the shoe looks great in the Raspberry 08 colors.
