Customer Reviews New Balance W8505

Fits the bill - I am very pleased with the New BalanceW8505. The reviews I read were extremely helpful in ordering. I did order a half size larger. Also I needed to accommodate custom orthotics because of plantar fasciitis so I ordered the wide width. The fit is very good. I wear them at my job where I am on my feet all day-- and also for walking the dog. So I would recommend them with enthusiasm!

New Balance W8505 - These shoes are great. They are comfortable and roomy. The padding is great and was more than I expected. I ordered the black pair and they are versatile with shorts, capri's or jeans. I would recommend the shoes as well as Zappos. Great shoes and great service. What else could you ask for!

Awesome shoes - I needed a tennis shoe that would look a little dressier for some work but also wanted a shoe that would be able to stand up to long walks as well. The white with gold New Balance fulfilled all requirements. Very good arch support, great looks and overall great fitting shoes. I usually wear a 9.5 but needed a 10 so the shoe fits a little short.

Cute sneakers - These are so cute. I got them in the lime and white and they are light for a sneaker. Very comfortable. Can not WAIT to put some miles on them.

One in every color, please! I love these shoes. They are very comfortable, lots of cushion and very cool looking. Best part of all, they arrived at my house the very next day after I placed my order, for all shoe lovers it doesn't get better than that.

My new kicks - Love these sneaks...I had previously bought these twice from local stores and loved them, however, was limited to color choices. When I checked Zappos, I noticed they carried all the colors and was able to buy a new color...although I wanted them all! They are like slippers for you feet. I work out in them at least 5 times a week and am able to do all types of cardio and step classes with no problems. They are true to size and are very comfy. I will continue to buy them, as long as they make them! My feet are very happy!

Fabulous Shoe - This is a great shoe! I walk a lot and at first I worried because they don't have the cushioning I'm used to in a walking shoe. But they were so comfortable.

Love them - I love my New Balance tennis shoes. They are just what I wanted. I ordered up 1/2 size larger, but usually do in a tennis shoe.

ORANGE RUSH!! What can I say that the shoe does not say for itself! I am a New Balance fan. I love the comfort of this shoe because I am an avid runner and walker. My feet never have an achy feeling from pressure. I have received plenty of compliments, and I love the color. It's very refreshing and I am looking to order a pair in black and white or black. I would recommend this shoe to anyone that takes care of their bodies.

Comfortable! This shoe fit great. I walk a lot at work and they feel great on. I will be getting another pair in a different color soon.

Must have!!! I just love my New Balance gym shoe. Love the support and comfort of the shoe. I will definitely order another pair.

Great Buy! New Balance W8505 was better than I expected. Shopping with Zappos was even better. The product was great; the service was great; and I will definitely shop here again and recommend Zappos to others.

Amazing - For years I have balked at the heavy, unattractive walking shoe. I recently had a double lung transplant requiring heavy post surgery walking. This shoe is wonderfully comfortable and I have had compliments on the style. I am very pleased and will use Zappos in the future!

Purchased these for my daughter who loves them. Wears them daily to school, runs and plays in them. States they are quite comfortable. Also loves the style as does many of her classmates!

Love em!! Love the shoes!!! Fit great very comfortable.

Perfect shoe!! I finally found the perfect shoe for me! I have very hard to fit feet. Very wide feet with high arches and bunions. I have been searching for a running shoe to replace my NB 856 for almost 2 years. I tried Asics, Nike and Adidas. None of these shoes felt comfortable. Finally I ordered the NB W8505 Zip in black/white and I am so glad I did. The fit is great--plenty wide enough for my feet. The cushioning is awesome. And they are really cute! I can finally run again without pain! I am a size 8 1/2 wide but I ordered these in a 9 wide. They are perfect! Thanks Zappos!! Your service is excellent!

Awesome - I couldn't believe the difference I felt walking on the treadmill once I got these shoes. I can walk faster and longer with no discomfort or fatigue. And they look great too.

Comfortable Walking Shoe - I bought this shoe from the reviews of others. I did have to return the 7.5 I originally ordered for an 8, but other than that I love them. They were immediately comfortable and have a lot of cushioning. They look good and are light on your feet. Zappos is the best...free overnight shipping! How can you beat that? No need to even go to the shoe stores anymore.

I love Zappos!! Love Zappos!! And my New Balance sneakers…very comfortable and stylish!!

Great for people with heel problems - I have to be on my feet for 8 to 14 hours at a stretch. I was having problems with my heel and this shoe helped a lot. It made my feet feel good all night and I'm not limping the next morning. Great for working out in too.

Awesome shoe! The shoe has excellent support all around. My main concern was support and shock absorption in the forefoot post-surgery. Always on the lookout for the shoe (not just athletic) that will provide the most comfort, the most support, that not only looks good, but performs well over the life of the shoe, this one definitely fits the bill.

Best fitting, best looking, New Balance W8505 - The New Balance W8505 fit well and look great. I was looking for a black athletic shoe so as not to wear the white all the time. I require a shoe with support and this has support, arch and heel. Comfortable right out of the box. True to size and width.

Interesting heel - I should have ordered a half size larger.

Great looking shoes that feel great! I bought these shoes for how nice they look and for some comfortable running/walking shoes. They are great with or without socks and go with everything! My mother has foot problems, pain in her heel, etc. and after letting her borrow mine, I bought her a pair and they help her a lot. I could not be happier with the service and selection of Zappos. Thank you, Zappos!

Great Shoe!!!! I love, love, love these shoes! They are incredibly comfortable, cushioned, stylish, and great for running. I normally wear 7.5-8 and I ordered them in an 8D. They fit perfectly. I wear them with my arch supports too, which fit very well. One thing I especially like about these is a short tongue. I also wore these shoes for circuit training, spin, and aerobics, and while they worked well for all of those activities, I definitely prefer a cross-training shoe, as it provides more lateral stability and forefront cushioning. I haven't worn New Balance in awhile, but now they will be my primary brand.
