Not a Sneaker wearer -
I don't usually buy sneakers, but I thought I would try these since I am on my feet all day. They are great. I wear them at work and I don't even think about my feet, even at the end of the day.

I have 2 pairs of these shoes. The problem with both of them is the tongue. It won't stay put. Always slides to outside of the shoe. Otherwise, they are a good shoe for being on your feet all day.

The Best Shoe for Me -
This is my 5th pair of 7.5 2E #811. I have tried many others, recently returning a Propet pair. Nothing fits my feet better or accommodates my orthotics than this sneaker.
I have problems with my feet and these accommodate them. I even have metarsal bars put on the bottoms after I receive them....If you have a foot problem, give these a try.

I have size 6 wide, very high-arched feet. Recently, I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis of the right foot. In addition to wearing a night splint and doing exercises, my podiatrist has taken me off sandals and other regular shoes for most of this year. I chose this shoe because I could get the 4W (has sufficient room for the orthotic) and because it's made for the high arch. My podiatrist inspected the shoe and gave me the thumbs up for a great choice.

WW811 -
I would have liked more height especially in left lower metatarsal area. The shoe became uncomfortable after an hour or so. Used a shoe stretcher and that helped.

Broke my ankle and needed a transitional shoe after the walking boot came off. Looking for stability, outstanding traction and enough support to get me walking again both inside and on the uneven New York City sidewalks. The salesperson recommended this and two SAS shoes as the best in her store for a person with issues like mine. I usually wear 8W and this NB 811 was the most comfortable and easily accommodated my still swollen foot. I am now taking my first steps again in these sturdy shoes and I feel totally secure in them. Thank you, New Balance!

New Balance Walking Shoe -
Extremely comfortable, snug fit- feels like you're walking on air. Very supportive. Good casual shoe with jeans.

Looks can't count, it seems -
I have worn this shoe for years for my daily walks and while I am traveling, mostly to Spain with students who need to walk and to walk and to walk. I couldn't do it with out them. I want to know why though that shoe manufacturers can't build this kind of comfort into great looking shoes. Zappos is the GREATEST shoe store on earth. I just wished they carried "all" the brands. (SAS, MUNRO, FINN COMFORT)
I'd also recommend:
SAS and Soft Walks.

Review of N.B. WW811 -
As soon as I put these shoes on, they felt very comfortable and for me, that's always a victory! I have a 2E width, and my foot slipped right in. Laced ‘em up and I was on my way, and have been ever since. You will not be disappointed. True to size and width...what a plus!!!

New Balance -
My new sneakers are very comfortable, fit well-I have a long narrow foot, and are well made. This is the second pair I've bought and plan to continue buying this brand.

Shoes for Breast Cancer 3-day walk -
I have worn the New Balance brand for 20 years. I have problems with my back and feet, and this shoe was recommended to me. When I decided to take part in the 3-day walk, I knew I would need good shoes to help me survive the training and 60 mile walk. I was excited to see that their official shoe was New Balance. I work for a school district, and I am on my feet a lot. I would not make the day without my New Balance shoes! I highly recommend this shoe, and any other shoe they make!

Love these shoes!
I am disabled, and these are the ONLY shoes, that I am able to walk in for long distances.
When it is raining, these shoes DO NOT slip on the pavement. They are very comfortable.

only these shoes fit true to size.

56 years old and I feel I have been given NEW feet!
I have always, always had foot problems. Buying shoes is horrible as they may feel ok in the store, wearing them and walking is another story. And by then they can't be returned and money has been wasted.
Anyway, a friend's young son was having problems with his feet and was told by his podiatrist to wear New Balance shoes. In January my feet were worse than ever so out of desperation I went to New Balance and tried these shoes. I have worn them everyday since. I ordered my second pair from Zappos so I can alternate them. I should order a 3rd pair soon. Miraculously these shoes make me feel like I have new feet. I can walk again! It sounds like an exaggeration, but at my age and with my feet and back problems it really isn't. One day I switched back to my old Saucony athletic shoes that I used to like and the difference was incredible. I guess it is New Balance's roll bar that makes them so different.
I only wish these came in more colors.

New Balance Walking Shoe -
Very comfortable shoe. I wanted a pair of walking shoes to replace my sneakers so purchased this one. I purchased the 8 1/5 but it was too snug so ordered the 9 instead. My plan was to wear them to work in the morning (I do a bit of walking) and change into another pair of shoes when I arrived. To be perfectly honest, I haven't taken them off yet. I'm very pleased with them.

Always a sure thing-
New Balance 811 always fit, always support and allow me to put them on and wear them immediately... I try and try to find other shoes that feel the same, but I always go back to the 811... I just wish they were leather...

Excellent Support and Comfort-
I have had these 811 shoes for years for greatest comfort. I rely on greatest widths and its comforts and it is the best ever walking shoes I could fit in. I would recommend these shoes for any women in need.

My new favorite shoes!!!
A physical therapist recommended that I get New Balance sneakers because my hips were hurting. Sure enough, after about 2 weeks of wearing these, my hips are pain-free! They are comfortable, vegan, and look good. What more could I want!

They are great -
I am a big woman and I am very hard on my shoes. Also, I tend to walk on the outsides of my feet and I need a strong solid heel to help prevent that. These shoes are wonderful, they actually help me to walk faster!

NB811 -
This shoe is excellent. Though some shoes are made small, this shoe was the right length and width and comfortable to walk in the first time I ordered it. Zappos service was great as always...the shoes arrived well before the expected date.

New Balance was made for me -
Just when I thought there was no hope of finding shoes to fit my problem feet, along came New Balance. I love their shoes. These are my 3rd or 4th pair & I'm still surprised at the comfort found in each new pair. I wish they made other types, too. (i.e., casual & dress shoes)
I'd also recommend:
Take advantage of the many New Balance width options.

New Balance WW811 -
Love this shoe! I am a nurse who is on my feet all day and I could not be without this shoe. I have had so many problems with other shoes wearing out fast because I tend to walk on the outside of my feet. The rollbar in these shoes keep me balanced, which also helps my back. Also, I have a wide foot, so the extra wide shoe feels comfortable and there is no "breaking in" with these shoes. I highly recommend this shoe!
