I work in a clinical setting, lots of walking, I gave the arch support a moderate only because I use a Powerstep Pulse insole for all my athletic shoes, before inserting that I did okay but am better with the insole. These shoes were exactly what I was looking for, hope they keep this style as is, I get new shoes annually for work. The comfort, design, durability is what I was looking for and have spent much more money for shoes, the reviews I read before ordering helped make my decision. I’ve had 2 hips replaced, one knee and am my early 60’s, this shoe is the best I’ve worn in quite awhile. I would definitely wear these for walking and have already had coworkers ask where I got them, basic styling, I’ve done all the colors and mesh toe boxes, so over them for what I need.

This is by far the most comfortable shoe I have ever put on my feet. Immediately it felt as if they were nicely broken in. The support was wonderful. Neither were they too heavy, although I know lighter shoes were available. I plan to wear these for exercise classes at our local health club. If anything changes I will append this review.

I've worn New Balance shoes since the 70's and have never had a more comfortable athletic shoe. For my athletic history, I started out running, then went to walking, then step aerobics, and now back to walking. I'm in my 70's and New Balance is "my shoe". Thanks!

I was absolutely blown away with these shoes! I have worn them for two days without my orthotics! This is unheard of. I'm so happy with the innersoles...there's more support than before I think. I love their look too. Thank you.

Easy Spirit, New Balance, Munro, Trotters

I needed comfort for my job standing up or walking for 12 hours with 1 break. These were recommended and worked out perfect.

I have been getting the same type of shoe for over 13 years. I have orthodics and no other shoe works better than these. They last a year for me since I wear them everyday. Two years ago, I started working in kitchens. No other chef shoe feels good on my feet except these. I highly recommend this shoe to anyone that is picky with their shoes.

I ordered these because my usual shoe New Balance 626 was unavailable. While this is a good shoe it is not an adequate substitute for the 626. It is true to size, and has decent arch support, but is tight across the instep even when laced loosely, and the toe box is considerably more narrow, resulting in aching feet at the end of the day. Still a solid supporter of New Balance, but if you're looking for a substitute for the 626, this isn't it.

These New Balance sneakers fit just right. Personally I need to add inserts to support my arch, but I love that I can remove the ones that come with the shoes. I will purchase New Balance again in the future!

These fit well on my narrow foot. I returned because I like a more cushioned feel. More of a personal preference than anything wrong.

They are a good shoe, just not for me. I have special inserts that work well with your other styles, this one the toe area is less wide as the others.
