New Balance began as a Boston-based arch support company in the early 1900s, developed into a specialized manufacturer of shoes in the 1970s, and has grown to become a leading global athletic products company. Today New Balance is a family of brands including New Balance, Dunham, PF Flyers, Aravon, Warrior and Brine.

Since the days of selling arch supports to police officers and waiters, New Balance has been a brand concerned with meeting the needs of the everyday athlete. In pursuing this goal, they developed an "Endorsed By No One" philosophy, which holds that a superior product will sell itself better than any superstar athlete ever could. Part of producing New Balance shoes and athletic clothing is manufacturing it to fit all widths and sizes, because a better fit produces better performance.

To ensure the best fitting, best performing shoes and clothes, New Balance focuses on improving their technology and production methods. A big part of that is maintaining five manufacturing facilities here in the United States where they continue to produce New Balance shoes and apparel that meet the standards they've employed for 100 years. They have also remained committed to a core set of values that include integrity, teamwork and total customer satisfaction.

I knew that NB tended to fit me well when I looked for a walking shoe--I'm already on a second pair of their waterproof hiking shoes. Found this model on their site but couldn't find it in a local (physical) store--too new. Zappos to the rescue. I really enjoy this shoe; very comfortable and supportive. And it looks great, and I think 5% for breast cancer. So.

I'm a NB fan and was disappointed with overall quality of shoe. No arch support and tight across the toe box. I have a small but wide foot with a high arch and these are not the shoe for that.

Great shoe! I walk to/from work daily so I'm always in search of comfortable shoes. Plus, I have a bunion on one foot that makes it hard to find something that fits well and is comfortable. This shoe is so great I'm buying a 2nd pair for when these wear out!

This is a great walker. I was looking for a shoe that would provide comfort and stability after breaking my foot and this shoe provided both. It is also a good neutral color. I always order my New Balance a full size larger so it fit perfectly.

I'd also recommend: Asics

I received my shoes promptly. They are comfortable, very stylish, and appear to be durable as well. It's difficult to find narrow widths. I am very grateful to Zappos for supplying this needed width.
