This is a good looking and a wide shoe that really fits without having to go half size up. Also, lightweight feel about them and one of the few shoes I wear without socks, still comfy.

Our son has a very difficult time finding shoes to fit. These shoes had a perfect instep, right width and length; they truly are a 4E. He uses them to run PT in the Army and says these are the best fit of any shoe. He says the traction and grip is great for running on any surface. (He was so impressed with this shoe that he called us at 5:10 in the morning to rave about the fit when he finished his first run wearing them.)

So far, so good. Bought the previous model and loved them. I wear orthodics (doctor prescribed due to plantar facaitis (sp?)) and New Balance has always fit the best. I like the wider base in the front of the shoe as well as the even heel. I tend to wear out the outside of the heel faster with the orthodics and the heel on this shoe helps compensate by keeping me more to the inside. I but shoes from Zappos twice a year. You cannot beat the selection and SERVICE!

These are the only shoes my son wore at sleep away camp this summer. They are fantastic and honestly made his summer so much easier not having to worry about his shoes holding up for the entire time! They got wet and sandy and soggy and rained on and dragged through the mud and on sailboats and never failed him! They dried in the sun and stood up through it all!

I love New Balance first of all as they are the only shoe manufacturer still in the U.S.. Secondly, most of my long distance hiking friends (read; people who hike thousands of miles!) swear by New Balance. This shoe follows in the tradition that New Balance has set as a tough, well constructed, light weight, breathable, well-supported trail shoe.

The shoe fits great. What I really like about this specific shoe is that the top part of the shoe is made of a mesh like material that will stretch to match your foot. This is very important to me because I have big size 14 feet and I need a lot of toe room. I have been wearing variations of this model for over three years now and have not been disappointed even once.

The New Balance MT609 shoes have great traction and look great with the gray and striking yellow emblem...I love the New Balance line in that they offer me many choices in the extra (4E) width...along with the great customer service you know you have two great companies on your side looking after you!!!

It's difficult to find EE width in athletic shoes. Grateful to Zappos for providing a great selection with top notch service!

These sandals are the best! I bought them for my 4 y/o boy and 2 y/o girl. They wore them every single day for 6 months straight. My kids loved to wear them everywhere - beach, park, sprinklers, bike riding, etc. even on the hottest days. Best of all, I knew their little feet were protected, especially their toes! They received lots of compliments and we definitely got our money's worth.BTW, YES, they are washable. (And please don't spray lysol on your child's shoes!) I find that any shoe gets smelly when a child wears them without socks. I would pop these in the wash on gentle cold cycle, and let them air dry in morning sun (they would dry completely in less than 2 hours). Voila! Smell is gone.

I ordered these for my son who has foot issues. They are nice and roomy in the toe box, accommodating his bunions.

Most comfortable to date...
My other shoes were worn out from working out and my feet were beginning to kill me all day long. I did research on ZAPPOS.COM and decided to give these a try. They have eliminated my pain, breath very well, and are great to do everything in; not just workout.
Also, I have received compliments on the looks of these bad boys.
I would recommend these to anyone.

Great Hiking Sneakers -
In 20+ years of hiking these are the most comfortable trail sneakers that I have ever worn. My feet felt great after a recent 17 mile hike.

Good shoe for the price -
I would rather get a woman's 13 but the 11.5 men's was all that was available. The women's is narrower so it fits my foot better. I don't want to get away from the New Balance as the shoes fit my foot so well.

Love It!
These shoes are so comfy. I got them in 4E width so that they could fit my orthodics; I even was able to keep the original sole in there for extra comfort. I normally without orthodics wore a 2E. Finally a good looking shoe in a wide size, and one of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn!

Finally! 4E shoes that are actually made for wide feet. Most "wide width" shoes are made with a taper to the toe, but, thankfully, these have a rounded toe. I'm buying several more pair before they are gone. Arch support leaves a bit to be desired but that can be fixed with a good pair of inserts. Incidentally, I bought the same shoes in black/grey and they were significantly narrower so I sent them back. I love Zappos and won't buy shoes anywhere else.

Size was very good. Width accurate and arch support superior. Only negative is the shoe seems to be a bit hot-doesn\'t breath like I had expected.

I have to come at the purchase of shoes carefully. I am both 300+ lbs and have wide feet, but still have a fairly high arch. Most shoes lack the cushioning and support, but the MT609s have worked out very well. The shoes give great support of my foot without feeling like they are squeezing it numb. The 4E wide have been good, with a little extra coverage at the ball of my foot, which has been problematic in the past. The arch support is not good, but this has only been an issue when I am walking or on my feet for long stretches of the day. I have no problem recommending these shoes.

I plan to return these because they seem to run a little small. I am really a 15.5, but a 15 is usually the right size for me in a running shoe, but this was a bit snug. I opted for another shoe, rather than trying a 16. Other than that, great looking sneaker.

It\'s a good shoe that fits well. It\'s a bit lighter and lower-cut on the ankles than expected, but that\'s good for running. It\'s better for athletics than looks.

It's a New Balance so how bad could it be, very light weight and looks great on.
Zappos had the shoes on my door step in less than 24hrs! Unreal service as usual.
