Customer Reviews New Balance WR873

Best shoe ever - I bought this shoe due to the reviews posted on your website and your description of the shoe. I checked excellent arch support as the shoe has this with my orthotics in the shoe. This is the only shoe I have ever been able to wear all day long--I'm in the over 65 group. In the Amazon rain forest I never slipped or lost my footing. The shoes dried quickly and were great to wear even if they weren't dry. Again, at Macchu Picchu I had no difficulty in hiking or walking over rough terrain. Everyone loves the turquoise color.

Very Attractive Running Shoe - I’m very pleased with the detail, design and lightweight design of this sneaker. Although I use it mainly for exercise, they are stylish enough to be worn with a casual outfit. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THEM!

Love these shoes and Made in USA. They are available in wide. They are unbelievably comfortable – like slippers, lots of room in toe box. I run regularly, but only 12-15 miles/week.

Beauty and Function - Loved the shoe, I got a D width. Plenty of toe room, great support and they are hot to look at too!

Sore Feet - I ordered a WW in this shoe and unlike other sneakers I ordered in the same size, this shoe gave me lots of toes space and comfort...along with lots of urban style. I would buy this shoe again.

Good for WW feet - I have a small, wide foot (6 1/2 EE) & I finally found a sneaker that fits me…though it is a little long (ordered a 7 for toe room)...should have ordered true-to-size. I wish there were better color choices (I prefer an all-white shoe).

I was really impressed with the quality of the shoe and with how fast they arrived at my door w/o having to pay shipping!

New Balance WR873 - This shoe is like walking on butter! They are so comfortable and cute to boot!

Wife loves them - After hiking at Mount Rainier National Park with my MR873 shoes, I bought a pair of WR873's for my wife who was slipping and sliding around in her old Adidas. After 17+ years of marriage, I know the risks involved in buying shoes sight unseen but she loves these shoes for both wilderness hikes and walks around town. The grey/orange color scheme is sharp looking (better than the men's version frankly) and looks smart as a casual shoe about town. Great way to score points with one's spouse.

Best Shoes I've ever bought on my own - I am a 32 year old who has not bought shoes that actually fit in my entire adult life! These are amazing!!! Width is remarkable which is HUGE for me!

Light as air! 10W in New Balance always works for me. These shoes are very lightweight and comfortable. They have worked well for walking and running.

New Balance does it again! I'm a New Balance junkie, but this latest pair is simply fantastic! I have plantar fasciitis, so finding a shoes I can run and hike in for long periods can be really difficult. This shoes is the perfect balance of cushion and support. My only complaint is that it makes my foot look a little long even though the shoe is super cute. Small price to pay for this kind of comfort!

Comfy - I was looking for a gym sneaker that wasn't bright white or doused in neon colors, and this fits the bill.

Awesome sneaker - This sneaker fits true to size. The color is great. People stop me in the streets to comment on them!

New Balance shoe - Very comfortable shoe for exercising. Support and hold is great.

Features galore - The shoe seems a bit clunky looking, but it is really very streamlined. It has good lateral support, and several features which are labeled directly on the shoe, like the toe protector, aeration for quick cooling, and comfortable tread. It also has shoelaces that stay where you tighten them because of clever wavy design. This is a good cross-training shoe and I intend to use it for light jogging and aerobic kick-boxing.

This shoe is extremely comfortable and light. Takes time to get used to the weight it feels like you have nothing on your feet. NB does a great job of fit. I have the shoe in wide and a girl I work with has it in regular and we both feel that the shoe fits well am ordering my second pair. I have them in navy blue and pink and I get tons of compliments. Love this shoe and love Zappos.

Love these shoes! I bought these a couple of weeks ago and they didn't need any breaking in. The most comfortable sneaker I've found. I wear them during workouts and walked a 14 mile trail with total comfort. The upper portion of the shoe is mesh and really helps keep me feet cool. I took a chance and ordered I size smaller than my previous New Balances due to supply and they still fit great. Thanks Zappos for your ongoing excellent service and quick shipping.

New Balance - Always a Good Buy - First, New Balance always run a size smaller; order one size up. Next, the width - I take a WW, but this one felt more snug the other WW NBs I own. Love the colors, though, and they are SO light on my feet!

Toe box too narrow for my wider feet and not enough cushioning/support. I will be sending them back. If you need a wider, more supportive trail shoe, try the La Sportiva brand.

All Around Great Workout Sneaker! This sneaker is perfect for going to the gym and has good support. At first I thought that the fit was not snug enough and thought I wanted more padding/shock absorption, but my husband convinced me to keep them as they are so lightweight and comfortable otherwise. I've already gotten quite a few compliments on them!

New Balance - This is a shoe that breathes. It has great traction.

Stylish Wide Shoe - This one has a lot of room in the toe box for wide feet, yet fits in the heel. The overall design is very stylish. The blue with orange trim was a bit bright and took some getting used to. It could have used a bit more arch support, but overall, a good walking shoe for wide feet. Strangely, several other styles by New Balance that I ordered at the same time felt shorter in length - this one felt about 1/4 size larger than an 8 1/2.

Looks great, but too narrow - I usually wear 5.5 EE in New Balance shoes, and I bought this pair because I love the way they look. Unfortunately, they are much narrower than other NB double E shoes. I had to send them back because they would not lace over my foot. The W992 style fits wide feet better but are not nearly so stylish.

The shoe is a great looking shoe; it's the back of it that’s the problem. It wore down after I put it on one time even with it being un-tied. And you couldn’t pull it back up either. So the shoe is very uncomfortable because the back of it rubs your heel.
