    I ordered these and got them in 2 days. My true size is 8.5 and wear that size with dress and ballet shoes. I normally wear a size 9 in tennis shoes, but since these wore more like ballet shoes ordered the 8.5. The length is perfect, the 9 would have been too long. My feet are a little on the wide side and rub a little bit on the sides, put they will stretch. I love them. My daughter tried them on and loves them too, she wears a 8.5 and has narrower feet and they fit her perfect too.

    These are so light and comfortable. My only problem is that my feet are a bit too wide for this style and my heel doesn't feel secure. The heel pops up. I think that with wearing in, it will be fine. But overall, this is exactly what I wanted.

    So cute! I'm an 8, and the 8 is right on. Just put them on for the first time, and there won't be any break-in time. They're super comfortable, and they breathe in the warm weather. Thinking of picking up the gray too!

    I ordered these for work. I am a server at a restaurant that has 3 different rooms on one floor, so I walk a lot. These are perfect because they look cute with pants or a skirt and I can wear them without socks. They are so comfortable and light and also supportive. I love athletic Mary Janes. It is especially hard to find shoes that don't tear up my heels, but these don't require any breaking in! Highly recommend. I love NB.

    Super comfortable! The minute I pulled these out of the box and put them on, I didn't want to take them off! I bought them specifically for a trip to NYC and was raring to go. I would say that under normal walking / day to day circumstances they would have been phenomenal, but hitting the pavement hard for 8+ hours a day, a little more support was needed. But I still love them and enjoy wearing them, just not hiking all day in them. The fit was very nice - very true to size, and worked well with my narrow / average width foot.

    I got these in black and loved the fact that they weigh so little. Would have been perfect for my attempt at lightweight luggage for our European trip. However...they are flat inside. No support that I need so badly, so sadly will bee sending them back.

    These shoes are so comfortable -- even for feet that have recently had bunion surgery! I can wear them all day without my feet starting to hurt! Plus, they are adorable!

    Wanted to exchanged 6.0 for 6.5 in charcoal/orange but not available in 6.5. So I got the brown/green in 6.5. Although the fit is loose, I'm beginning to love this shoe with the help of padding here and there. Great for the summer! (Wish I weren't in between New Balance's sizes or maybe the shoe just runs a tad small.)

    I replaced the insoles, which slip out easily, with Superfeet insoles covered with Smartwool socks. Perfection! I will be taking these to Europe as a second pair of walking shoes.

    I ordered these shoes yesterday and they came in today - talk about quick shipping! The shoe itself seem fairly true to size, fitted, but I think that once I wear them a bit they'll loosen up, and it feels comfortable out of the box. There is padding but not much in terms of arch support, but the sole can be removed so if you need more support you could easily put in an insole to make up for it. I got the dark grey/orange pair and the colors in the picture are true to life. They are fun, comfortable, and exactly what I was looking for. Thanks New Balance for making cute shoes and Zappos for your awesome shipping!

    Got these for casual use. Opened them immediately from the box and fell in love. They are like walking on clouds. I wouldn't recommend using these for long walks or lengthy exercise -- not enough support. They're easy to slip on/off, and are light as a feather. I bought 2 pairs -- 1 in blue, the other in orange, and I receive many compliments. Great summer shoe.

    I was very excited to receive these shoes so quick after I ordered them. I am thinking about returning them because I am concerned that they will not meet my needs. I wanted a slip on shoes for city commuting. These seem like great beach shoes or light walking shoes. They did stay on my feet and were true to size. The construction was not great; the sole is not glued or sewn to the bottom of the shoe. Is that on purpose?

    I wear a 9 or 9.5. The 9 is too small. Because I am flatfooted, this style does not fit my foot right, so I will not be ordering the next size up.

    This shoe is an improvement over the previous incarnation that was a collab with Nine West. Unlike that version, this feels like a real shoe with nice support and padding. Unfortunately, the shoe runs small. I previously wore a 6, but I'll need to purchase a 6.5 I think for a more comfortable fit.
