Customer Reviews New Balance WA790/WR790

Excellent running shoe. Best I've ever worn. Super light and needed no break-in period at all! Bought 2nd pair and I am considering grabbing a 3rd before they are discontinued. Needed a half size larger.

Love These Shoes! I bought this shoe as my "run around, grocery, etc." shoe. It is light weight, but offers lovely support. While I do not think it would be good for any serious running, running after children and errands are certainly within this shoes capability! I got the raspberry and taupe combo and just love the color.

Great Shoes/Fast, Free Shipping - I love these shoes! This is my second pair of them and I like them just as much as the first pair. Very, comfortable and lightweight. They do run small so order a 1/2 size larger than the size you normally wear. I was also impressed by the quick shipping from Zappos. I placed my order and received the shoes the next day!

Light weight - They are very comfortable and light weight. Your feet and legs are not tired at the end of the day because of the weight.

Comfortable and light all around shoe - These are very light New Balance with a moderate arch support. I cannot wear heavy athletic shoes. I even wear them without socks and they are great! I always order 1/2 size up in New Balance.

Great shoe! Since this was my second pair of WR790, my review is positive. This shoe is lightweight, comfortable and the mesh covering keeps feet cool.

Lightweight, perfect fit for trail shoe - Loved it. Super light, great for trail and street running. Buy a 1/2 size larger. Mesh makes shoes easy to clean and also helps stay cool.

Light and Comfortable - These shoes were exactly what I wanted - light, comfortable, easy to throw on. I wore them all over London the first time out of the box - and wore them sockless… and they did great.

WR790 review - I like this NB very much. They’re better looking and lighter feeling than other NB's I have. This shoe can take my orthotic well.

I love 'em - I have worn NB's for many years as advised by podiatrist. These have to be the most form fitting, most comfortable NB I have owned to date. I love 'em.

A good everyday shoe. This is a nice looking shoe. Nice weight, great color choices, comfortable. I wear it everyday for normal activity. I'm an under pronator and my custom orthotics do not fit this shoe. That's why I gave this shoe 4 stars instead of 5. I use a different shoe with a corrective arch and heel for serious workouts.

Great trail shoe - I love this shoe! Simply put it was easy to pack, comfortable to wear, and looked cool. It is a very light shoe with great grippers for rocky trails.

New Balance WR790 - I have worn out three pairs of this shoe...it's comfortable, durable, attractive, and is a great overall shoe for the money. It has a tailored, sporty look with a roomy toe box, fits snugly at the ankle, and comes in multiple colors. Good value for the money. I wore off the tread before I wore out the body and that's with lots and lots of use.

Perfect shoe - I bought this shoe to perform multiple tasks as a running/hiking/walking around town shoe, and so far it has been awesome. They are SUPER light and they fit my narrow feet perfectly. I am between sizes 7.5 and 8, and I ordered up and they fit like a dream. I bought them in the color "surf" and they are so cute! I want to buy them in every color now!

Suitable for travel - I wore this shoe when touring Florence and Rome. It was okay, but probably would have been better if I had gotten one with more support in the arch and the heel. My orthotics would not fit it. No serious problems, however, and the shoe looks great in the Raspberry 08 colors.

Love Them!!! From the first time I tried them on, they were very comfortable. Did not need to be broken in. They were also lightweight and didn't feel like I had weights on my feet. I wore them a few days and decided I needed another pair in a different color. I highly recommend them.

Light and comfortable - These shoes are light as a feather and very comfortable. I just use them for walking and they are perfect. They keep my feet cool in the hot weather, and they also look great.

Awesome - These shoes are so great. I love them. I got the raspberry ones and they look so neat. Not to mention how comfortable they are. I have a lot of problems with my legs and have problems with clots so, these are awesome! I will definitely get another pair in the future. And of course Zappos makes it so simple. I had never ordered from them before and I was impressed all around. I looked around all over town and could not find this price!

Aces - I have serious gait problems due to MS and I've been looking for a shoe that provides support without the weight that usually goes with it and this shoe is a perfect fit. It really is super lightweight, as advertised, yet supports like a heavier athletic shoe.

Good little walking shoe - I've been giving these shoes quite a work out during the past couple of weeks. Typically, I walk 4 miles on a rough gravel/large stone path. These shoes do the job of taking the jolts and cushioning my feet. I would buy them again.

Lightest shoe ever! I received as a gift and I love them! They are so light - perfect to slide on and head out for a walk.

Love these - but order a 1/2 size bigger - Love these. Super lightweight. Great arch support for me. Cool looking without looking like I'm trying to be cool. Super soft mesh. All around, there's nothing I don't like. Just order 1/2 size larger. I am always a 7 but the 7-1/2 fits perfect.

Great walking shoe for summer. Super lightweight and the mesh keeps your feet cool. Be sure to buy a 1/2 size larger than you normally would. Seems to run small and you will want the extra toe room for walking.

Raspberry goodness - I purchased this shoe in Raspberry 08. I LOVE the color combinations and the style. I'd like to buy more colors soon. I bought both size 6 and 6.5 after reading the reviews but found the 6 (which is my normal size) to be more supportive and a better width for my narrow foot. The big toe is a bit short but not that different from the 6.5, which my thin foot kinda swam in. I'm very happy!

Great every day shoe - I LOVE the looks of these shoes (I have them in brown/coral and think that's a really cool looking combination). They are very light and fit my feet like a glove. I wear them for every day stuff - but don't wear them if I'm doing major exercising because I don't think they offer enough support/cushioning for that. However, I bought them as an every day shoe and love them for that.
