This is a fine well made shoe. I have bought several pairs and they are consistently well made. They require almost no breaking in to be comfortable. If you have worn New Balance you know their narrows are not very narrow, I buy the AAAA and I would say it is more like an old-fashioned AAA or AA. I wish it was a little narrower, but I have trouble finding vegetarian oxfords with support so I am happy to find these. I can get about 6 months of daily wear out of this shoe and the sole and exterior will still look good but the interior support will wear down before the exterior looks worn out. I have had 2 bouts of plantar fasciitis in the past and by always wearing these shoes I have avoided any more. I am pleased that they look fairly trim on the foot, not clunky like some oxfords.

I bought these shoes for my mother. She wears a 10AAAA, and has always had trouble finding shoes that fit her narrow foot. Thanks Zappos for carrying this size. She wore them brand new, out of the box, on what was supposed to be a short trip. Instead she ended up stuck at the Atlanta airport for almost 24 hours. Needless to say, she did lots of walking around, and she commented on how happy she was she wore her New Balance. They fit perfect and were comfortable from the very beginning. She would like to get a pair in black now. Loves them! Thanks Zappos!

I bought this shoe for work where I am on my feet all day. They\\\\\\\'re truly comfortable and last me all day. I am able to put my arch supports in them with room to spare. They run true to size and width

Wanted these since they were what I had and worked so well for me. Wanted to get these before they were all gone. I use for walking, and around the house in winter.

I have been wearing the New Balance WW811 style for at least 10 years. They are immediately comfortable and I can walk many miles in them without pain or fatigue. I use them on the treadmill and also as a general walking shoe. They are a little "clunky" looking, but if you're more interested in comfort than fashion, these are for you. Love them!

These sneakers are very comfortable and are wide enough to fit my orthotic inserts. I wear them to work to help take the pressure off my heels and under my toes. I was so pleased to get them delivered within 24 hours of ordering them! they are great!

This is the only athletic shoe I will buy. My foot is narrow, and this one always fits. This is about my 5th pair of these shoes.

If you have a truly skinny foot, this is the shoe for you. It is very comfortable and will actually fit a true AAAA.

I bought these shoes for my 93 year old mother. She never shopped on line before and sat next to me, amazed that we could narrow our searches to fit her needs. She loves her new sneakers and is planning on using them when she walks on a local school track!

I ordered these shoes for my mom. She is thrilled with them. She said they are very comfortable and fit her very well. She always has a hard time finding shoes that fit and these per just perfect.

I was skeptical about buying shoes online, but I couldn\'t find a really nice pair of shoes in stores that I could be sure were 100% vegan. These shoes fit perfectly though. They are supportive, cushy, and just plain comfortable. I broke my foot a couple of months ago, and these shoes are why my foot feels normal again. I bought 8.5 wides, and I wear them everywhere, all the time. I love them. They may not be stylish, but they\'re low-key, so I don\'t think people notice. And they\'re completely vegan to boot. I highly recommend these shoes.

Perfect shoe for my narrow foot. I pronate a bit when running and this shoe gives great support. I have always had good luck with New Balance and this one is no different. I bought a size 11 2A as I know this shoe fits small. The width was perfect.

This shoe was recommended by my podiatrist, and she knew what she was talking about. I need a shoe with a narrow heel, and the narrow WW811 fits the bill.

I purchased this shoe mainly for casual wear. I can walk all day in comfort. The shoes were a little stiff at first, but they have broken in well. The fit is exact, even for a large foot like mine, size 10.5. I have had surgery for Morton\'s Neuroma, so the roomy toe box is great. And some have said that this is an unattractive shoe, but I think it looks great, even makes my larger foot look squatty, probably because of the squareness of the toe box.

I bought these shoes for my dad 2 months ago. My dad is 76 years old and he is a walker, as he walks 5 miles a day. He could not be any happier. He wants to wear these shoes everywhere he is going. BTW, Zappos service is out of the world. I originally ordered a size that was a little tight but Zappos fixed that in a day by sending us a next size up. My whole family will buy shoes from Zappos from now on.

I\'ve been a hospital nurse for 25 years and have bought these shoes several times. They cannot be beat for comfort and stability. These shoes keep your heel from turning so ankles, knees and hips do not ache at the end of the day. They are very comfortable, plenty of toe room. More durable than average. Good price for a good shoe.

The shoes fit well, I appreciated the fast delivery, the personnel very easy to deal with. On the whole, a very pleasant experience. If I can find my size (7S), I would order again.

This is my fourth pair of New Balance shoes. Each time I have found them to be so comfortable. I will order my fifth pair when these wear out, but I might wear out first.

The WW811 sneakers are the best New Balance sneakers I've ever worn. I've worn NB for over 20 years. Ordering through Zappos was a snap and their turnaround was great.

This is my shoe of preference. It gives me the support I need because of the roll bar. Just an all around good shoe for everyday use and light hiking.

I bought a W width. My feet are wide and I have bunions. This shoe had plenty of room in the toe section, plenty of room across the widest part of my foot, and it didn't slip at the heel. I took out the insole so I could slip in my own arch supports. Plenty of room for them. I wore the shoes shopping the first day and it felt like I wore some old comfortable house shoes. Not so stylish, but very practical. A little expensive for shoes that aren't leather.

I love these sneakers. I have been wearing them for about 10 or more years. I have tried others, but always go back to these. The are extremely comfortable and look good too.
