Liked the support, cushioning and feel for running; liked the look of the shoe and comfort. Unfortunately have returned two pair because they both squeaked. Not sure I want to try a third time.

I believe New Balance has made an inferior product here. I was looking for a shoe that was comfortable to walk/run in. I made this purchase in good part because it looked more stylish than other options in a size 4E (I have very wide feet). When they arrived they looked as neat as they did online but handling them they seemed chintzy. I could see dried glue all over the sole and while lightweight shoes are desirable for running, and these are light as a feather, their weightlessness made them seem cheap rather than streamlined. I'll probably buy New Balance again as they are one of the only companies that specializes in wide sized shoes for men but I'll be paying close attention to what is coming out of their factory. I hope they put some more thought and effort into their future products. To reiterate: style was on point (website image was true to color) but overall shoddy workmanship (I guess that's what you get for "proudly made in the U.S.A."?) and I agree with previous reviews that their 4E Extra Wide in this particular version was not as wide as I've experienced in other of their shoes.

I wanted to buy a pair of athletic shoes that are made in the USA. After trying several places with no success, I found that New Balance has a group of made in USA shoes. My wife recommended I try Zappos and she was right! Zappos.com was very easy to use, even for me. I am proud to wear the sneaks I got. They are just as described and I was really impressed at how fast the shipping was. I will be doing business with Zappos in the future.
I'd also recommend: None

Very happy with my purchase. This shoe has performed better than expected. I usually do not buy New Balance running shoes but this purchase has changed my mind.

I bought this shoe as a runner, hoping to increase my support on the bottom of my feet. While the shoe is BEYOND comfortable, it has become a walking shoe, and a casual shoe for me. Stick with another New Balance if you're looking to run. I should have thought twice with the flat bottom sole.
