These are the best athletic shoes I have ever owned. I over pronate severely and have knee issues and these keep me really stable. I highly recommend them.

These are fantastic! I have wide flat feet. I walk 5 or so miles a day, and with these on, it feels like I am walking on clouds. I also have lower back pain. With some shoes, my back is aching after my walks. With these shoes, no knee pain, no back pain. Just a nice, comfy walk.

Just bought these shoes. They hurt really bad the first 2 weeks I wore them. I had blisters like crazy all around my heels. I purchased new ortho-type inserts and a special heel pad and now they fit better. I power walk 4-5 miles a day. I expected a better fit and less abuse on my feet.

Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support
Extremely comfortable, mildly dorky. I'm a beginning runner and decided to invest in a great pair of stability trainers. Bought these at a local shoe store and was amazed at how much support I felt in my extremely overpronated arches. These are super comfortable. No breaking-in period required. As a global rule, I find bright white sneakers rather dorky, but that's just me being a shoe snob. For running purposes, all I care about it comfort and support.

I love the New Balance WR850. I am training to walk in a half-marathon soon and my toes were feeling pretty scrunched. I read the Zappos.com reviews on this shoe & decided it was the one for me.

This shoe is a real disappointment. The arch support is inadequate and the N-lock lacing system is painful. Because the N-lock lacings have no give or elasticity, they painfully dig into your foot. This is especially true for anyone with bunions or any other sensitive foot issues. Don't be misled by the shoe's wide platform--this shoe isn't a good shoe for anyone with bunions, it's much too constricting. The heel also is on the wide side, which causes heel slippage. That's especially a problem if you have to leave the N-lacings loose to avoid their painfully digging into you. I'm sorry that New Balance didn't do a better job designing this shoe...

Very comfortable, interesting laces that don’t loosen up while I’m walking. I have wide feet and normally wear Birkenstocks all the time, and these were perfect for my feet.

I can’t live without running and good shoes are extremely important. New Balance changed their 768 model to 769, the change was enough to cause blisters on my toes when I ran. I was disappointed and struggled finding another to fit my wide feet. The 850 model has been my life saver. I loved them from the start. Comfortable, provides good support and stability, and best of all… no blisters.

 |  | I bought almost a whole "winter wardrobe" from you in the last few weeks. And I want to thank you for your incredible service (phone, email, all and any contact w/ you) because it is outstanding. The items I bought are of the best quality, and I only had to return 2 items that either did not fit, and the necklace was an unattractive item. I exchanged both items for something else I wanted. Never ever did I have a negative experience with you in all the years I have been your customer. You make all the difference in shopping experiences, and I almost shop exclusively w/ you because of it. Whatever you pay your employees, isn't enough ;o) they are worth their weight in Gold. Overall, just thank you for everything, Sincerely, Adelheid J. |  | ~ Adelheid J., October 12 2009
