Fast replacements -
I went to Zappos because my brother told me they were really fast at delivering and re-ordering shoes for you. I just started training for a 1/2 marathon, so I needed some new shoes that weren't going to give me blisters. When I first got them they were a 1/2 size too big, but I had my replacements within 2 days, it was great. I've been running multiple miles at once with these and haven't gotten any blisters at all. They're very comfortable and attractive.

Not for high arches -
Many people like this shoe, but if you have high arches, look elsewhere. The tops of the shoe barely meet the sides of the tongue and the laces are almost too short when the shoe is on my foot. I've never had a pair of NB shoes before that didn't fit, so like an idiot I put these on and went for a walk. I got the strangest blisters on my heels, low on the insides of my heels. Can't return them now! I found a pair of Profoot insoles to replace the existing insoles that save my heels from the weird bumps in the shoes, so I guess I can get some wear out of these. It just goes to show how different people's feet can be.

Great running shoe. I run cross country and track and it was very comfortable and cushiony. Also pretty lightweight. Good for long mileage running since it lasted over 300 miles.

I love this shoe!
I tend to pronate, so I need a shoe with great arch support and stability...this shoe does both! I also wear orthotics, so I buy a wide size to accommodate them. I usually wear an 8 to 8 1/2, but wear a 9 in this shoe.

Love 'em - and Zappos -
I love these shoes. What I've found with NB is that the toe box is high - which is excellent for me since I hate to have pressure on my toenails (too many broken toes in the past). Although I normally order my shoes in Wide, with NB I have found the Double-Wide is the best as I believe they run narrower than other shoes. For years now I've been ordering double-wide in NB and it's worked perfectly every time.

Good support -
I had recently purchased another pair of New Balanced shoes, the NB858, and after wearing this pair of 768s, found that I like them more than the more expensive and newer model 858. These shoes support my ankle much better and overall feel better when walking. Be sure to buy 1/2 size larger than your true shoe size.

I love this shoe. I found it to be very comfortable for my painful feet (plantar fasciitis). I had to order a1/2 size larger than I usually wear.

LOVE this shoe!
I bought these in Carolina Blue for an upcoming trip to New York City since I knew I'd be walking for miles plus up and down the subway stairs. They worked beautifully. Totally comfortable right out of the box, no blisters or discomfort of ANY kind. And they are so cute! Even my boyfriend liked them.

Comfortable good looks for the Cure!
I bought this shoe to wear while training and walking the Breast Cancer 3-Day. I was pleased to find out that New Balance was a sponsor and created shoes from which a portion of the profits goes to Susan G. Komen Philanthropic Trust. It would have been of little value, however, if the shoe didn't work. So far, I'm finding it to be exactly what I need for the training and the event. I will order another pair.

Stability and comfort -
I have chronic pain in my left hip due to a recent injury. The kind of physical therapy exercises I did made me think that a shoe with a stability last would be helpful. So I searched the New Balance line for stability trainers and ordered WR768. The design keeps my foot and ankle from turning inward and that seems to keep my hip pain at a minimum. The shoe is so lightweight and comfortable I hardly know I have shoes on. They look good too.

I love these shoes! Mostly, I'm thrilled that I can find very (very) wide shoes to fit me! I can't find anything like this in any of the stores around my hometown. And I work in Breast Cancer research, so the pink looks good with my pink scrubs.

Okay shoe -
I purchased this shoe originally in the normal width, but it seemed too tight, so I ordered the wide and now there is too much room. I think the shoe just isn't right for me personally. I purchased two colors, but will be sending one back since I have not worn it yet. I think if the shoe fit me right, it would be a great shoe.

I bought these to replace NB W767 since NB said it's the same shoe. It fits slightly differently from the 767, but I am keeping it since I have such trouble finding anything in a narrow that is any better.

So far so good! I was a little apprehensive when I read the review about the shoe being much shinier than the picture, but they actually are not that much shinier. I really like the way they look (plain) and they are pretty comfortable.

I read the reviews and went with a half size large and I am glad I did. I put them on and have been wearing them ever since. I bought them for the big Susan G. Komen walk here in St. Louis. They don't even need to be broken in.

I ordered this shoe because it's hard to find a cute sneaker in XW. It does not disappoint - very cute. However, I think Brooks sneakers are made better.

These shoes are great and are a replacement for the well-worn originals. It wasn't obvious from the online photos but these are branded for breast cancer awareness.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Saucony also makes goods shoes with similar last/shape.
