Cute and comfy but runs small -
I listened to everybody here and ordered a half size up from my normal size. They were slightly big so then I ordered my regular size and could barely get my foot in (way too small), so I would also recommend ordering up. I did keep them even though they are a bit big because they are comfy and very cute. They did slip a bit on my heel so I put a gel insert in them and now they are fine. Very fun shoe.

Darling shoe and it fit fine. I wear a 7B, and that's what I ordered. I also have short toes and boxy-shaped feet, so I wonder if that's why they fit ok (in contrast to some of the other feedback here). I only returned them because they don't have the level of support I need. They were nice and cushy, but not sturdy. I'm still waiting for NB to bring back their plain loafer - it looked dressier than tennies, and had lots of support.

Super Cute and Super Comfortable -
I purchased these shoes (gray with purple - which is really pink) while I was pregnant so I could have something comfortable that I could slip on and off. They are very comfortable shoes. I like the look of them, plus I get complements on them all the time. A word of caution, however, I ordered a second pair in tan leather, and that pair in the same size (7.5 W) did not fit. I had to return them.

I love these shoes for running errands and getting things done around the house. They would not be good for extended exercise or running because they don't provide enough support. They are great and comfortable for daily wear. They are really good for travel and getting through security because they slip right on and off so easily. They do run about a 1/2 size smaller than usual, so plan ahead.

How Cool is This?
I was looking for a suede casual shoe and was surprised to find these are felted fabric, but they are even better than suede because they are so cool (both temperature and looks!). They are extremely comfortable for exercise walking and look great with jeans for shopping jaunts as well. Plus, no animals were harmed. It's all good!

Great Shoe -
I have arch problem, and needed good support, yet because of my job, I needed a shoe that wasn't a sport shoe. This was the one new balance shoe that seemed to fit the bill. I LOVE them.

Much Narrower than marked -
I listened to the other posts and ordered 1/2 size up on this shoe. Unfortunately, it was still too narrow. I usually wear a wide in New Balance, and there's no WW in this style. I couldn't even get my foot into it. Darn. It was a really cute shoe. NB needs to make a WW.

Runs Small.
Some of the reviewers said to size up. I normally wear a nine and a half so I sized up to a 10 and a wide at that. I can't get my feet into the shoe without some struggle. Disappointing since they are rather cute.

Comfort!
Extremely comfortable. Really feels like an athletic shoe but cute looks more dressy. I have the black ones. Exactly what I was looking for.

Nice shoe -
Really nice shoe, I get lots of compliments. NO arch support. My feet hurt if I walk in them all day.

Comfy and cute NB WA800 -
This shoe is very, very comfortable, and the stitching sets it apart. However, I'm not sure how well the cloth fabric will hold up, so I'm still not sure I'll keep them. (I'm just wearing them around the house.) The sizing runs true to New Balance athletic shoes, but that means a half or full size larger than usual.

New Balance WA800- Terrific -
From the moment I got these and wore them I was impressed at what a natural and comfortable shoe it is. I purchased them for winter use and I have been extremely happy with them. There was no break in period and they have a great tread which for me with all our snow it is a must! I would recommend spraying the surface with waterproofing, but otherwise just enjoy them!

Great Shoes -
I had a pair of old New Balance slides that were getting tired, when I found these I thought they would be a great replacement and they are. They are just as easy to slip on but have a heel which is great in case it rains. I got size 9 wide, they are so roomy and do not look like clown shoes! I would definitely recommend them.

Love them -
Comfortable. Look great. Good blend of comfort and style -- can wear to work on more casual days without looking like I am wearing athletic shoes. The only thing I don't like is that the inner liner comes out a bit too easily.

I am a size 6 1/2, ordered a 7 & still too small reordered the 7 1/2 & they fit perfect. Fun looking shoe, can’t wait to wear them. Had them on around the house and very comfy. Seems to be the all-around shoe to wear with jeans, capris & even shorts. The all season shoe! Thanks again Zappos for making exchanges so so so easy and quick.

Most comfortable shoe I've had on in a long time!
While yes, I would purchase a half size up (I wear 8.5 and bought a sz.9), this sneaker is awesome. I broke my foot last year and still have a hard time finding footwear that is comfortable enough. It slides on easily, yet stays put once it's on. I do wear medium thickness socks and find them to be a perfect combo. Also the (grey/pink) colors online are true to the actual shoe -- very cute and of New Balance's high quality.

Not as comfy as I hoped -
I was looking for a comfy, yet supportive pair of shoes and have liked New Balance in the past. These felt a half size too small (toes were cramped), and when you're wearing them, they look wide and sloppy like house slippers. Sad because the leaf design is so cute.
