I loved the women\'s new balance court shoe 1001 and 1002, have worn them for years, never bought the 1003....but the 1004 is not sized right, three other tennis pals of mine also agree. The shoe is being made larger and bulker. I wear a size 8 and my friend who wears a size 9 fit into my shoes perfectly. Too bad neither one of us could exchange the shoes( didn\'t buy them through Zappos) because we each wore them once. And we live in a town that doesn\'t carry these items so we can go and try them on.

My granddaughter has a problem finding stylish shoes because of a very wide foot. I was able to find several shoes her size on your site that she liked and she selected these. They fit her perfectly. They are very comfortable for all day wear at school, but most of all, it was good to find a stylish shoe that makes her feel good about looking like everyone else!

Great shoe! I have been playing tennis with these shoes 2-3 times per week. There was no break in period and fit true to size!

The New Balance tennis shoe is great and the Zappos service was wonderful. I had trouble finding my size in stock elsewhere. I am very satisfied and will order again.

Solid tennis shoe - I've been wearing this pair for a few weeks now on the tennis court about 3 times per week. The shoes are light and comfortable on day one. My only complaint is the length of the shoelaces: too long! The tongue stays put and with the right socks, I think I've found myself a winner.

This shoe provides customary New Balance support and comfort with its true-to-size fit, in the New Balance standard of ordering a half size up. The heel seems a little loose.

This shoes are lightweight and comfortable. They are also mesh at the toe and part of the sides, and therefore are cool to wear. If you have wide feet, these shoes are a blessing - I tried everything that came in a wide and these were the best. Highly recommended!

Good shoe for the court. Light weight but provides support. Only negative is even the narrow isn't very narrow. I do like that it is breathable for the summer months.

Shoe Size: Felt true to size

They are awesome...
Have played for many years.... these NB are wide in the toe box but offer tremendous support. I thought true to size and seem to give great support for lateral moves. If you get lucky and it fits like a glove... you will be in the ATP in no time. well worth the extra money

Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support
Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked
I thought the narrow still ran wide.
Ordered a 9 1/2 AA and they still ran wide. I bought the old model that is suppose to be similar in sizing and it did not come close. I did end up putting in inserts to fill in the shoe cavity to make it work. If any one has suggestions for narrower shoes, please let me know.

I love this shoe -
Ordering shoes online is risky at best, but with Zappos' phenomenal customer service and fast delivery, I felt comfortable taking that risk. I probably poured through a hundred different shoes, paying close attention to shoe specs and customer reviews before I decided on the New Balance WCT1004. I couldn't be happier with my choice! With tennis shoes I usually have to select 1/2 to 1 size larger than my typical shoe size. I found the size chart provided to be extremely helpful in determining which size to select. The shoes fit perfectly and were comfortable the second I put them on. There was very little break-in/adjustment period. I would absolutely recommend this shoe.
