Customer Reviews New Balance Hook and Loop Leather 928v3

Very comfortable and supportive, if a little stiff in terms of flexibility. Solid shoe, Ould use additional art support, but that's me, very high arches.

Shoe fits wells but color is boring. Would purchase more in colors as varied as the men's.

I have been wearing this exact shoe for over 5 years (with the same type of sock). I ordered the size I had been wearing, and it was too short. I returned it, ordered half a size up, and it's pretty good now, although I would be happier if it were a quarter size bigger! The reason I really like this shoe is that is comes in a narrow width, a difficult thing to find in an athletic shoe.

An honest review from a mail carrier. I walk 11.5 miles a day. I typically buy the new balance postal shoes but they are not expecting to produce more until the end of the year. I wore these today on my route. Overall, they were very supportive all day. The only thing I noticed is the toebox is smaller then the postal shoes. I didn’t have time to deal with returning and playing with sizing as my previous pair of shoes were falling apart (the uppers and the soles weren’t together in places anymore) after 2k miles. I’m hoping since they’re leather, they’ll give a bit.

The toe box was a lot more narrow and shorter than new balance 847s. My toes kept rubbing against the front even though I have the exact same size and width in other New balance shoes.

Good fit for my weird feet, except maybe I tend to walk on the outside of my feet a bit too much in them.

I've worn New Balance 928s several years ago, but have been very pleased with Brooks Addiction Walkers. Unfortunately, the Brooks were out of stock. I was hoping the NB would work for me instead. However, the shoe has changed, not in a good way for me, from those shoes made before. I wear a 7.5 Extra Wide, but these felt too large in the toe box, although they fit my bunions correctly , as well as the mid-section and heel. I'm surprised the shoe is not extra wide in the toe box only to accommodate bunions/hammertoes. Instead, these seem designed for an extra wide foot and heel. When I tied them tight across the midsection of my foot, the front of the shoe puckered from the laces in the toe box area. Unfortunately, I had to send them back.

I bought these for my wife. The size was fine and the fit worked with her less firm orthotics. Unfortunately, her new orthotics have a much stiffer arch support which just did not work with them. It made them too tight on the top especially over her big toe and started feeling like extensor tendonitis pain.
