Not as comfy as I thought- I still have these but I don't wear them anymore. They feel good initially but after spending time in them they just won't do for the discriminating foot. I went back to the Reebok walk DMX; the 901s look better to me but the price in comfort is too high, specifically my feet take issue with the lack of cushy-ness/shock absorption in the sole.

Strictly for my geezers - This is a very comfortable shoe that fits well, gives good support, has nice cushioning in the forefoot, and rolls well to make walking seem effortless. It is designed with a wide toe box to be safe for diabetics, and I think that for aesthetic reasons it should not be worn by anyone who does not have special medical needs. The toe box makes you look like Frankenstein or someone with a club foot.

"Dress" diabetic shoe - Shoe looks acceptable with dark suits, usually worn at funerals. (We live in a retirement village). They are as comfortable as the bone-colored ones I have and are a very great improvement in wearing comfort to very expensive dress-shoes, even though those are extra wide. The high toe-box makes the difference for this 81 year old. If you are a diabetic, I recommend this shoe very highly.

New Balance MW901 - Since I injured my left foot I need a wide shoe, 4E, with a large toe box. This shoe fits well and was comfortable from day one. My only concern is with the other foot that doesn't require a 4E but could wear an XW comfortably. The shoe is too large now and I am not sure how the right foot will feel after the shoe stretches a bit. This is my problem and not the shoe.

Pretty Good - Left foot is bigger than right and the shoe pinched over the arch. Some wear stretched it so it's okay now. I've worn NB runners with no problem at the same size (11D), which is a half size larger than my past shoes bought at a shoe store (Florsheim).

Another winner from NB - Just back from vacation where I wore the shoe every day during greater than usual activity with no problem. I think they look great (mine are taupe). I use an insert in addition to the liner supplied with the shoe so my impression may not apply to everyone.

I got rid of pains in the knees and the lower end of my back as soon as I bought my first New Balance shoes three years ago and I have bought nothing else since. Unfortunately, this model is the only "dressy" NB model available. I wish there were more. Zappos had my shoes at my home one day after ordering! Great service!

Feels great! Looks ok. After much searching, I have found a walking shoe that has the comfort of my New Balance athletic shoes. I have calcium deposits on the second joint of each large toe and this condition severely limits my choice for shoes. These shoes look a little clumsy, but the comfort far outweighs that fact. Thanks New Balance!

Comfortable shoes - These shoes give great support and are very comfortable. They may not be the best looking shoe around, but your feet will sure appreciate them if you are on your feet a lot.

A Surprising Shoe - This shoe has been a pleasant surprise. I wear a 10.5 4E so New Balance is a natural choice for me to consider. I wanted/needed a casual shoe but nice enough for work in an office environment. Comfort is important. I've been wearing these shoes for more than a month now and have to say they've grown on me. I like them better now than when I first bought them. They aren't cushy comfort like my Nike Monarch III tennis shoes, but they are comfortable even after 10 hours a day in the office. Recommended, especially for those of us with "duck feet".

Working...on my feet most of the time - Work 24 hr shifts- on my feet much of that time. Shoes fit well, size is good, and great support! Just bought a second pair- so can leave first ones at workplace, and still have one at home for use. Zappos service is great- thank you!

New Balance MW901 - 1st order, super service. Slow to break in, but now they feel great. They do look a little clunky, but they are great for my use. Casual dress shoe every day. I would certainly buy them again, and I have no hesitation buy from Zappos.

I wish the other styles were available! I normally buy a 3E width, but this 4E width is just fine for me. These shoes feel great and look good. Where I work allows me to dress professionally without and these shoes have sufficient dress quality. Good shoe, decent price.

Excellent - I bought this shoe for my husband since he is on his feet eight hours a day. He loves this shoe. His feet and legs no longer hurt him. The fit is true to size and the shoe looks great with casual slacks as well as jeans. Definitely would buy this shoe again!

Awesome - I am not normally a shoe wearer, either work boots or sneakers. My feet started hurting and my doctor recommended these shoes. What a great investment. They are light, comfortable, good-looking, and do what is promised. When it comes time to buy another pair of shoes, these will be the shoes for me.

Nice shoe - As a woman with big feet and lots of pain from injuries, it has been almost impossible to find a comfortable shoe. I saw this shoe and purchased it in black and brown. I thought it was a little ugly, but if the comfort was as good as the reviews say I was willing to give it a try. Well, the reviews are right. I have been through so many pairs of shoes only to wear them for a few months and then they hurt my feet so bad, I would have to buy a new pair of shoes. That was not the case with these, they just get more comfortable. Not only that, but, I have had so many women comment on my shoes, telling me they look comfortable or they look nice. I am very impressed with this shoe. Now the only problem is finding them. They only had a couple pairs in stock in my size when I purchased them and now they are sold out. That seems to be the case everywhere.

I just want to say that both my daughter's family and I think you are wonderful, and have been loyal customers for some years now. It all started when she kept getting such personal, caring service from you that stood out from normal online interchanges, and so even though there are competitors she could go to, she stays with you as do I. From our end, it feels like you are one huge caring entity of human beings, quite a contrast to another online retailer, for instance, which seems like a huge robotic entity. And your site is so comprehensive and easy to use. So, thank you. Keep up the good work.
