I like the look of the shoe and they are comfortable. I bought them to wear with my new orthotics so I can't say how much support they give. They feel a bit big, too long and too wide. I kept them out of need. I would buy them again but probably go a half size down and keep the D width. Made in the USA of imported material.

The most comfortable sneaker ever. The wide fit is roomy and the arch support is great. I can walk in comfort all day.

I have been purchasing New Balance running shoes forever because they come in narrow. I can count on them being well made and last a long time with every day use.

I am a New Balance only lady and these shoes fit perfectly - very comfortable and true-to-size. A nice-looking shoe with good support for the aerobics that I do 3-4 times per week. I ordered on a Friday and received them in the mail on Monday!

These are great shoes with a fatal design flaw. Unfortunately, at distances longer than 5 miles, the plastic strap that reaches around the base of the big toe area rubs and causes massive blood blisters. They get worse every week - just ran a half marathon in them and I can barely put other shoes on. I'm not going to be able to wear these again. So... if you are running long distances and have a slight bunion or wide feet, I can't recommend them. It's too bad because I really like having orange feet. :)

Love these shoes! So comfortable, so much support. Like clouds of love at the bottom of my stumps. I've been wearing Nikes to run in and I am SO glad I spent the money on real running shoes.

Excellent shoe. Recovering from total knee replacement n I need good, stable walking shoe. This fills the bill. Love the purple color, also..

These are gorgeous, but run really short. I wear a 9-9.5 and ordered these in a 10. I could easily wear a 10.5, which I've never worn in my life (and I've worn a lot of NB)!

I run 15 or more miles a week. I purchased these after some bad experiences with the quality of my Nike running shoes. Overall, I am very pleased. I find them to be supportive, but not to bulky. Of course, dealing with Zappos is great.

These are wonderfully comfortable shoes! I wore them the first day out of the box all day long with no discomfort. I was also able to fit my orthotics into them with no problems.

I have under pronation, plantar fasciitis, and high arches. I am 6'0", and currently pregnant with my sixth child. I always have to wear an ortho type shoe so my legs and knees can work properly. These shoes are super comfortable and I love how it feels like you're walking on a sponge. But they are a little too tight for me and I ordered the medium size width. My toes get tingly from wearing them, so I am going to send them back and order the wide. I hope that will resolve the problem. But other than the width, I think I will like them a lot!

Bought 1/2 size larger. Alittle small/narrow My foot is not as stable as I had hoped. I roll out a little on my right foot. I would prefer a more neutral color.

I'd strayed from New Balances for running for several years and have been increasingly unhappy with the shoes I've bought. I took an online quiz about which shoes I should be wearing and these came up in the list. The first time I wore them I was able to run several miles nonstop with no pain or discomfort. They are my new favorite shoes and they feel so good for running. They're not super cushiony, but I like that.

These shoes are so "Holy crap, I'm never taking these off" comfortable that after they arrived, I wore them for several hours and then ordered a second pair. Light and airy but supportive, and don't need breaking in.

New Balance always puts out a good shoe. I am extremely happy with Zappos. They do a wonderful job of pricing the shoes right and getting them to you soon. Thanks Zappos!

I bought these shoes before chaperoning a two day school field trip and they worked great! I spent the days walking, running, and standing on concrete and asphalt and I was the only parent not in pain by the end. I have wide feet, high arches, and am a bit overweight, but these are the most comfortable shoes that I have ever owned (I ordered wide width and half size up). For the first time in the five years since my knee surgery, I am able to jog without joint pain. I am super happy with these and will absolutely order another pair. The purple is nice, it is not too purple, more lavender.

These feel quite good, although they are a bit tighter in the toes than I'd like (especially given that they are touted as having a large toe box, which I feel they really do not). But the drop (heel to toe) is lower than a lot of other running shoes and is very comfortable; important to me as my bunions dictate a no-heel shoe. Also, I sure wish they'd come in a more plain-jane all-white or all-black! So I'd buy another pair but can't give them more than a 3 overall.

I was a huge fan of the 1064's with the sport insole added. This shoe far surpasses the 1064 in weight, craftsmanship and comfort. I will be ordering them in the other two colors this morning and using the sport insole for even more comfort for my very high arch.

Ordered them 2 days ago and they arrived on my doorstep today. Great service! These New Balance running shoes are comfortable and lightweight from the first moment you wear them. Love the purple/gray color combo. Off I go for my run! I ordered 1/2 size up from my normal size & they fit great.

This shoe was comfy from the moment I put it on. It was suprisingly lightweight, yet gave good support. The color is so pretty, too.

This running shoe fits well and is lightweight. I ordered a half size up which I always do with New Balance running shoes. I typically run 20-25 mi/week and it seemed fine for that.

he first version of these shoes were fantastic and this one is even more so. It is so lightweight but provides the support that my feet need while working out. I love these shoes!

I am in love with these shoes. I needed some thing that could go the long distance without my feet feeling it and these are those shoes. I love the color and that they are lightweight.
