Great color plus great comfort - I've always bought NB shoes for motion control and narrow width--this is the first time I bought for color! I like this shoe because it's very well padded and came in colors other than babyish pastels. No break-in time needed, and I had less foot pain after a full day of work. The heel was somewhat loose, but should accommodate the insoles I will be buying to make up for the lack of arch support and motion control. This shoe is more about shock absorbing and forward momentum.

Good - The comfort in the heel is good but in the ball not so great!

Wonderful shoes. I recently had to go to a podiatrist with heel pain. She recommended these shoes. They have been truly awesome. They are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I wore them to Disney and my feet did not bother me at all. They are well worth the money. If you want comfortable shoes buy these! No break in for me. Great cushioning.

Great Sneaker, Greater Company - Very hard to get this sneaker in the size and color needed. Found it at Zappos! Free expedited shipping a major plus! Sneakers arrived before the email did! I love this company!

Great Sneaker - I have always worn New Balances, but not this kind. I once saw this similar style on a male friend of mine and he said that they were great. So a few months later I decided to get them on your website. I am so glad because they might have been the best shoe purchase yet. As a lifter, they also provide excellent stability and arch support! Thank you!

NB992 still great! I have owned three pairs of NB991 running shoes and thought I'd try the 992 when my last pair started showing signs of wear. I didn't think it was possible, but they were even better than the 991s. They are comfortable and supportive and very durable. I guess they are not the most exciting running shoe ever, but I think they actually look really good with most everything I wear them with. I am not a big runner, but I walk a lot and wear them just as a casual shoe. My husband and all of my kids have owned and loved NB991s and I imagine will continue getting this shoe as long as they can (or whatever model happens to be available. FYI, the main thing I noticed about the difference between the 992 and the 991 that I had before is that the heel sticks out further in the back - I guess for more support. I thought the shoe was bigger at first, but then realized it is just the heel piece.

New Balance W992 - I am very happy with the shoe. I have trouble fitting my feet and 992 was a good choice. The service was great and I will definitely order again.

Perfect Sneaker - I just wore them running for the first time and they felt so good I was almost willing to run extra :-). They are perfect sneakers for anyone. Not too narrow or wide, perfect support. My dad has super-wide feet and mine are normal, so i always assumed that since he wore this brand they were only for huge feet, but they fit me perfectly. Thanks!

Great Shoe! I love this shoe! It has great support, and is the perfect shoe for my power walks. It has taken a little time to break mine in, but I think I am borderline narrow - my foot is not as narrow as some, which probably explains the break in period. Next time I will order the regular width. I highly recommend this shoe for serious walkers. I did have to order a half size smaller than I have worn in other New Balance models. A+++

SO SO SO Comfy! My feet are flat and so finicky, but I have never in my life worn shoes this comfortable. Between the arch support and the cushioning of the shoe, I am one of the happiest girls ever. New Balance has never let me down.

I have hard to fit feet and it is always a challenge to find work out shoes that fit and feel comfortable. New Balance definitely delivers both! The shoes have solid support and cushioning. Zappos service is stellar as usual. You just can't get a better deal anywhere else.

Best shoes I've ever worn - I've been wearing New Balance shoes for about 20 years and this model, like all the others I've had, is wonderful. Fit is true with plenty of toe room. These shoes feel like they're walking for me and I could go on forever.

Good shoe - I ordered my New Balance shoes and love them! They are just what I needed for my heel pain problems when walking. I did put an extra arch support in the shoe under the foot bed, but that is only because I need the extra support. For the "normal support" person the shoe without the support is good.

EXCELLENT LONG RUN, AND MARATHON SHOE - Just ran 14 miles this morning. Looks like this will be my marathon shoe. Run 2-3 marathons per year. Have been running for 22 yrs, and first time I tried N/B shoes, Very surprised, on how good this shoe felt. I’M AN older runner, weight 168 lbs. Weight of shoe was no problem.

NB shoes - I like the look, but I expected the sole of the shoe to be higher. I have a high instep usually shoes with a higher insole would be more comfortable. Maybe I should have ordered running shoes instead of walking. I think that's what I ordered.

Very comfortable and supportive shoe. I only wear New Balance shoes for workouts - hill program on treadmill. This shoe would be too heavy for runners. Before this shoe, I always wore a size 7 in NB; however I had to return for a 6 1/2. I like the shoe so much, I am thinking about ordering in another color.

A great fit! This is a very comfortable shoe. I was pleased with the narrow width although the heel seemed to slip just a little. I decided to give the shoe a chance and now that the shoe is broken in, the fit is perfect and I can walk all day without fatigue.

Great Shoe - Received my shoes fast- Wore them the first day and had to get a little used to them but the second day on they became better and better- no problems whatsoever. Highly recommend them - Great looking shoe also and worth the money! New Balance makes quality shoes - had a pair of running shoes many years ago (over 10) and they wore well too.
