My first pair of New Balance hiking shoes, 746BR, are so comfortable I decided to get these waterproof ones. These 955GT's, same size and width, do not compare comfort-wise. The heelbox and achilles notch do not hold my heels well in the shoe, causing heel slipping. The top opening foot entry area is noticeably wider than my first pair. There are only five shoelace holes versus six on my 746's. The heel box needs to be deeper, or the heel back-achilles notch area needs to be higher; the foot entry area needs to be smaller, and six lace holes might provide a more secure fit. Also, there is no arch support. Unfortunately I had to wear them to discover the ill fit, and I can't return them now.

Was very disappointed in this shoe. I thought for the price and high numbered series that it would be better than the 800 series... Not true. It is very stiff and not near as comfortable... It has my feet burning again... I will be going back to the 800 series. A lot of money wasted...

Very disappointed -
This shoe looks great and my other 843 and 844 NB shoes brought my feet back from the dead... but these are awful, my feet started hurting again so I don't wear them... Expensive boo boo...

I love the New Balance 843 and 844 series
