Ordered both the 8 and 8.5 and found I liked the smaller size better. Great for lifting and using cardio machines such as elliptical. Not a lot of cushion between my foot and the floor, so I wouldn't recommend them for high impact activities. Very cute shoes, though!

I love, love, love these shoes! I'm a step aerobics instructor and they are the best shoes I've worn for my classes and other aerobics classes I participate in. They're very comfortable (I have wide feet) and they offer solid lateral support for those types of moves. I have definitely recommended these shoes to the ladies who take my classes and I hope
New Balance continues to produce shoes of this type!!!

This shoe saved my feet! I was wearing regular NB
running shoes while doing an intense P90X workout regimen. Big mistake because it caused a lot of foot pain in my right foot. A friend told me about these shoes and no more foot pain. They are perfect for P90X and cardio workouts.They also offer great stability through Plyometrics which is high impact jump training. Can't wait to see how they hold up to Insanity. ;-)

I bought these shoes because I needed shoes for Zumba! My friend got them at the store and liked them so I searched Zappos and found them at a cheaper price! Zappos provided quick, free shipping! I love the shoes, too!

When I first tried these shoes on and wore them around the house I was not that impressed. Then I wore them to boot camp. I've been wearing them for a few weeks now and they are great. I was worried that there didn't seem to be enough cushioning, but I haven't noticed a problem during workouts. The stability in these shoes is awesome. I just ordered a pair of the 871s for my husband as well, best workout shoes I've had.

These shoes are absolutely perfect. I needed a cross trainer and they are hard to find around here. A lot of the other reviewers said they ran big, so I went ahead and ordered my usual size, 7½, and I am glad that I did because they fit great. I sometimes go up to an 8 in
sneakers, but these were roomy without being too large. The option for ordering a wide was wonderful, too. My feet are wide and I sometimes have difficulty with both regular and work out shoes with my toes going numb. If this is any indication of New Balance's quality, I will be wearing this brand from here on out.

My boot camp shoes! Butt ugly, but fit very well. I replaced the liner with a cushier one to help absorb some of the shock. Good width, built-in "training wheels" on the sides make it great for lateral movement. All in all a great purchase if you don't want to be fashionable!

Fantastic shoe for Zumba! I've used this shoe on both carpeted and wood floors and its great for both. I bought a 5.5 in wide width, normally I buy a 6 in
athletic shoes, but
New Balance seems to run a little larger, so the 5.5 in wide did the trick. They are very lightweight and provide great movement for dancing. The added stabilizer portion to the exterior of the shoe is great for me as I've noticed I tend to roll my foot to the outside when doing Zumba. Great arch and ball of foot support. Would be a good shoe for all types of gym activities.

I usually wear another model of
New Balance for my aerobics class but decided to give this model a try. It is very comfortable and, since I got it in white with silver and purple trim, pretty cool looking as well.
