I was very pleased with my purchase and the prompt service. I would recommend Zappos and will shop again soon. My Husband has a hard time finding shoes that fit and New Balance is the one he can buy and know they will fit. He is very happy with his shoes. Thank You.

This shoe looks like the work shoe I wanted, all black. Normally, I wear NB 608AB, but they are getting harder to find. So I tried a pair of MW576. I am a letter carrier and walk about 6 miles a day. I hate the pain this shoe causes especially in my right foot. I even bought Spenco shoe inserts and the pain kicks in eventually. I will never buy this shoe model again. I never had pain from shoes when I wore 608 cross training. I heard they made a newer model and I will check it out. The MW576 was just so uncomfortable that I wondered if there was a defect in the right shoe. The pain was in the ball of my foot. Overall, this shoe sucks.

Great shoes, and fantastic service. I drove around to 3 different stores in my area, wasted three hours and they did not have the style or sizes I wanted in stock. What\'s not to love about great service in this day and age of mediocrity.

This was my first purchase from Zappos on line and I was amazed how pleased I was with my purchase. I have had foot surgery and New Balance shoes are all I can wear comfortably but they have been hard to find where I live. I took the chance and ordered two pair and I am happy to say they fit perfectly and I am thrilled to be able to walk without pain. I would not hesitate to order again in the future. Thank you.

I bought these shoes for my son, who needed good support for his job at a restaurant. He says the shoes are very comfortable and fit just right. He has narrow feet, and the narrow size 9 suits him well. I like the fact that the treads do not pick up a lot of squished food. His previous shoes had deep treads that required lots of cleaning. The shoes are not clunky and have a nice, streamlined appearance.

Great walking shoes. Very good arch support. I have walked over a mile for over a month and these shoes are still going strong. I order the 11 1/2 EE because I have wide feet (11 1/2 D in standard shoe size) and this size fit me perfectly.

This is the first pair off sneakers that I ordered from Zappos. My usual order is for Clarke shoes. The sneakers are excellent. I have very wide feet, and if the sneakers/shoes are not wide enough, my feet are in agony. Like the Clarkes, the New Balance sneakers are wide and comfortable. As always, they were delivered promply and without incident. Thanks a lot for the great products and service.
Other Brands Recommended by Reviewer: Clarke shoes offer sneaker comfort in a casual or dress shoe.

Just what I wanted. At first when I put my right foot in, the problem toe that sticks up felt crowded; however, once I stood up, it felt okay. (I did not need to use my stretcher gadget.) I've been enjoying wearing them. Atthention New Balance Manufacturers: New Balance is a wonderful brand, fits well and wears well. I wish they would insert reflector panels on all their sneakers, as they've done in this one. My black NBs have no reflectors, which I miss when I'm outdoors in the short winter days.

\r\nThese sneakers are very comfortable and provide the foot ample support. I use them primarily for fitness walking, but they also look good for everyday activities.

Purchased these for my youngest son who just recently became employed. Needed them in a hurry and of course your quick turnaround time helped enormously. He has to be on his feet a lot; they are true to size and very comfortable. No complaints!

Very comfortable, even in hot weather and provide good support. I walk a little over a mile 3 or 4 times per week, and also recently spent two days working on a concrete floor in my garage wearing these shoes, with no foot discomfort. I purchased a half-size larger than my "regular" size because I don't like my toes to feel cramped in a walking shoe. Also appreciate the relatively shallow tread; doesn't capture and hold a lot of mud, and easy to clean.

These shoes are tje most comfortable shoes for walking, running and everyday activities. I had a badly fractured ankle years ago and these shoes provide me with the support and comfort I needed.

This is an excellent shoe for people on their feet all day. It provides comfort and good support. I added the hideously bright orange supports for an additional cost and was happy that I did. Zappos' service is stupendous, quick and (at least for my three orders) flawless.
Other Brands Recommended by Reviewer: None. New Balance is the brand that best matches my feet.

First and foremost, the fact that Zappos has 4E's is terrific. These are for my husband and he has such a hard time finding the right size and width. We order all of his athletic shoes from Zappos now. This shoe is very comfortable for lots of walking and everyday wear. Thanks, Zappos! Width and length true to size.

Reviewer: from United States
Overall: (5 Stars) Comfort: (5 Stars) Style: (5 Stars)
I want to start off by saying that (for me) NewBalance shoes are always a size too small. My feet when professionally measured are a size 10 1/2 with my left foot being a solid size 11. I ordered these in a size 11 and they were so tight that after 5 minutes I had to take them off. I sent them back (Zappos rocks for this!) and had them replaced with a size 12. The 12\'s are absolutely perfect for me, and I should have known to just go with this size since I\'ve worn nothing but NB for the past decade. \r\n\r\nI\'m going to be on my feet for 12+ hours a day with these shoes so I did replace the insole right away with a quality one recommended to me by my doctor. I plan on buying a second pair of these shoes so I can alternate days wearing them.\r\n\r\nThe only thing I have a problem with is I have narrow heels so these shoes slide off with every step. This is a common problem for me though and not a fault of the shoe itself, but just be warned if you have narrow heels also you may want to find some good pads to stick in there to help.\r\n\r\nI was a little hesitant to order shoes online but I\'m extremely satisfied with my purchase. When the time comes to replace this pair I\'ll be stepping up to the 900 series, and without a doubt I\'ll be ordering from Zappos.

Overall: (2 Stars) Comfort: (2 Stars) Style: (3 Stars)
I\'ve had several pairs of MW575 and MW574 in size 10EE. I always was able to just put them on and in about 2 hours they were broken in and felt great for months. I purchased 2 pairs of MW576 thinking they\'d be the same, but they were very uncomfortable, even after 2 weeks. The bump in the middle of the forefoot was so large that it annoyed me with every step. Even though this shoe looked to be the same length, I was crowded in the toe box. I even tried new insoles but they were even more uncomfortable. \r\n\r\nI called New Balance to find out what was going on and they informed me that the MW575 was made on the AL-1 last, but the MW576 changed over to the SL-2 last (making it a completey different fitting shoe). New Balance was very responsive and allowed me to return the 2 pairs directly to them. They sent me a pair of MW926 in black and a pair of MK706. The MW926 was OK for a while (even more stable in the heel), but still not as comfortable as the MW575, and after about 4 months have become very uncomfortable. The MK706 was both too short and wide in the midfoot and heel so I couldn\'t stand them for more than an hour. New Balance has suggested I try the mw845 so I\'ve ordered a pair of those to try. I\'ve also tried on a variety of NB and other brands at local stores, but haven\'t found anything that fit like the MW575. \r\n\r\nI\'ve come to rely upon my New Balance shoes for consistent fit and to get me through the day, but this new model was an extreme disappointment. I don\'t understand why NB took a great product and ruined it for me. I have to give NB kudos for making a wide range of sizes and for good customer service. My complaint is that NB gave me something great then took it away. This is a cardinal sin of customer service. \r\n\r\nThe bottom line is if you liked the MW575 don\'t count on the MW576 as a replacement.

I made the decision to try a pair of walking shoes when my New Balance MX622 cross-trainers wore out, as 90% of my "training" is walking. I purchased a pair of the MW576's and have been very satisfied! The 2E is an excellent fit--not too narrow and not too wide. There is just the right amount of padding on the upper, and there is sufficient support on the bottom. The finish is excellent; the shoe seems like it will last longer than the MX622's. And right out of the box, I was able to go on a 4-mile walk with no discomfort. Overall, I am extremely happy with this shoe purchase and look forward to many miles in them.
