The shoes I've ordered were just fine. I was expecting a shoe with a heavier upper and a more giving sole; the pair I ordered were very light with a stiff sole. At first I was disappointed until I started wearing them for their intended purpose. Now I realize they are just what I needed.

The New Balance Classic's U420 is a great sneaker. They are affordable, comfortable, and stylish. As always, Zappos customer service was exceptional. Thanks!

Very nice looking shoe, holds up well for casual wear. Not much support, would not recommend for any type of sport activity. They are perfect for what I bought them for; looks and occasional walks.

Great shoe for a great price -
When I purchased this shoe, I heard they ran small, so I bought a size 10 when I usually wear a size 11. At first they were quite tight and I was worried I'd have to send them back. Luckily, they broke in perfectly, and now fit exactly how I wanted them to.

I ordered these for my boyfriend who says that these sneakers are one of the lightest and most comfortable he's ever owned.

This was my first purchase with Zappos.com and I am completely satisfied with not only this shoe, but the quick and friendly service I received. I will never need to shop anywhere else for classic sneaks. Thanks Zappos.com! =o)

Satisfactory -
More nylon than the photo depicts. Design doesn't scale too well to the larger sizes, which is a common problem with shoes. Somewhat flimsy sides, but the sole is firm and supportive. More canvas would be nice for the price.

I was loving these boots, warm, waterproof, comfortable. Unfortunately after less than two months of daily wear in a snowy Chicago winter the rubber uppers developed, cracked and split (right across the top where the toes flex when walking). So, no longer waterproof, which was a main selling point for me, and not as warm. I am extremely disappointed that they failed so quickly and do not recommend buying these at any price.

Comfortable and Stylish -
This shoe is everything I had hoped for. I saw a few posts about the sizing being off so I ordered a half size down (size 11) and it fits just fine. I definitely couldn't have gone 1 full size.

Be careful of the "brown" color -
I ordered the brown version of these shoes, but when they arrived, they were more purple than brown. I ordered two other pairs of brown shoes, when comparing the color of the three pairs the New Balances really stood out. The comfort and style of the shoes were fine, but I didn't want purple shoes so I sent them back.

Good shoe for the price.
I like these shoes, but the insoles were not that great. I had to put new ones in and now they are super comfy. They look good and seem to be holding up.

Multiversals review -
These shoes run a size bigger than normal and will break in nicely. I wear a 14 but the 13 fit perfect after they were broken in. they are extremely light weight and comfortable. I have a high arch and the center support is just not there. Nothing that an insole couldn't cure.

Shoes ordered down and half size. Comfortable but no support at all so added an insole and now they are great.

Awesome - Love my 420s. Not much arch support, but very comfortable for knocking around town, wearing to work (I'm a hairstylist), and hip enough to wear to concerts. The size runs a full size larger, however. I am an 8.5 and needed to return them for a 7.5, which fit perfectly.

 |  | Dear Zappos, I am a very happy customer. I wanted to write and tell you HOW MUCH. I have spent thousands of dollars on shoes from Zappos online in the past few years. I live near an outlet and have only been there once. I buy shoes for everyone; me, my husband, my grandkids. I have NEVER had a bad experience at Zappos, never been refused wonderful and courteous service. There is no one out there in the world that I know of who has the customer service you do. It is unparalleled and the reason people come back and back. Zappos is successful in every way because of the customer service. Shoes can be bought anywhere. Customer happiness cannot. I have several stores and online sites that I will never shop at again because of customer service. I only give a place of business, including restaurants, one time to mess up. There are too many places to go. Thank you and I will continue to pass your name on to everyone I know. |  | ~ Anne J., November 09 2009
