Great lightweight shoe - I was looking for the lightest shoe I could find in a narrow, to lighten the load on my suitcase when travelling. This shoe fit the bill, and they fit great and look good also.

New balance www646wp - I was looking for a very light weight walking shoe in a wide width so this was the one. It fits well and looks as good as you would expect from a shoe of this type. I was very pleased with the speed of delivery from Zappos.
Brands I'd also recommend: uncertain. Shoes are so personal

Ordered several - Kept this! Due to numerous joint and foot surgeries, along with what has changed from a 12AAAAA to a size 13B foot, I have great difficulty finding appropriate shoes to accomodate my orthotics and all the other problems. I ordered numerous pairs hoping at least one would work. Cost didn't matter. I wanted comfort and a decent fit. This and the 811, though no where near the most expensive in my order, were the ones! I was a little leary of putting nearly 700 dollars on my credit card, but the return was so simple and the credit card charges were removed immediately. It is rare to find such competent, timely and hassle-free service.

Review of New Balance's WW 646 - These shoes are great! I can't even feel them on my feet, they're so light. I got them for Christmas and I've worn them everyday.

Nice - Had read the previous reviews before ordering and was still amazed how light this shoe is. Felt comfortable immediately. Also liked that it has a shorter heel.

Where is the PURPLE? Love this shoe! It is just what I have been looking for and what I needed. I wear a very narrow size and shoes are hard to find because of this size. Zappos came to the rescue! The shoe even comes in the colors that I love, HOWEVER, I would like to know where THE PURPLE is! The shoe is suppose to be purple and white. Purple to me is a deep grape color. This shoe has NO PURPLE as far as I am concerned and I have tried two pairs of the shoe. What is being called PURPLE is a very, very light shade of something but it is not the "Purple color" that I know from a color chart. The whole color of the shoe looks white. Other then being disappointed with the color feature, I am very happy with this light weight shoe and its fit. Thank you Zappos!

Great comfortable walking shoe - Nice, lightweight walking shoe. Supportive but light. Fits well (though I had bought NB shoes before, and it fit true to that size.)

New Balance w646 - I've had this shoe for over a year. I like it very much, except it's a tiny bit short for me; i wear 10.5, 2a, and otherwise this fits great, and i love the lightness and the cushiony heel; I have just tried to order a new pair in a size 11, but so far they are out of that size; might run 1/2 size small, or my feet are growing again

WANTED! "646" IN 9AA - This is the most comfortable walking shoe ever! I bought a pair after reading the review/recommendation in Prevention Magazine. I had no idea it had already been discontinued. I am frantically searching for another pair in 9AA.

I love New Balance because they are compatible with orthotics; however, these shoes felt a little smaller than previous New Balance shoes I've purchased. Overall I would never buy anything but New Balance because of the comfort. After being on my feet all day taking care of patients I feel I couldn't do this without a great pair of shoes!

I have recently been having trouble with my feet. I chose these shoes because they have a "clean" and simple design which makes them look rather sleek. They turned out to be very comfortable and the width is just right for my skinny but ultra wide feet. A more intricate style would have made me look like Minnie Mouse. The soles (as with many other shoes I have tried ) are not soft, and there is no arch support for my high arches. So I will have to resort to buying another pair of soles, even though they never feel as good. All in all, I am very pleased with these shoes, and will buy more of the same.

Very happy with the comfort. They ran true to size and a nice change from the leather white or black New Balance that seem to be the only selections retailers have in wide width.
