I started out with the NB 925's and found the fit perfect. I really liked the rollbar which was very comfortable for my heel pain. When they changed to the 926 I was a bit upset, but found they had the same fit and feel. Now we have the 927's. I feel they have improved the look while keeping the same feel. Might be a tad snug at first, but will loosen up in short order. Great shoes.

It's awesome in every respect. If you're deciding on whether to buy one or not. Buy it; your feet will thank you. One caveat is that my feet do get hot after walking 1.5 miles. Guess I need to use some Gold Bond.

The shoes fit really well. Much better than the previous model. I am having some issues with the lacing at the top. I have a lot of problems with my feet and I can't seem to get the shoes laced so that they will not bother the top part of my foot.

Very pleased with the support this style offers. As a heavier person, my feet need good shoes. I did not realize how much my old shoes had worn out and the new shoes made a difference right away.

Have a black pair of the MW927 which I wear to work. Also had gotten a brown pair of the MW926 just before they were discontinued. With only a few changes essentially they are the same shoe. I walk 4-5 miles daily on tile floors as part of my job and these shoes are great. Wore them right out of the box to work with no break-in period and had no problems. Used to wear the MW901 but I think the MW927 is a better fit for me and offers better support. Pretty much only wear New Balance because of the 4E size and plenty of toe room. My shoe away from work is the NB trail shoe MT811. Likely will only buy New Balance in the future. And Zappos is the greatest! For four years have only bought my shoes from Zappos. Ordered online the MW927 early Sunday morning and they were on my porch Monday afternoon! Keep up the good service.

Overall, a very good walking shoe. Wide toe box and good cushioning. I walked over 3 miles a day on city streets during vacation and the shoes supported well, and my feet did not suffer. I did have to add an orthotic-style insole to get the arch support I need. The tread pattern of the soles can lead to slip on wet surfaces in some circumstances, though. The leather breathes, and even though I had black shoes, sweating is not a problem. Stylish enough to wear in dressy situations, so I did not have to take a dress shoe on vacation. NB is the best for wide feet.

I am very pleased with MW927; they are as comfortable as advertised and are the right fit. I wear them almost daily. I also am very impressed with Zappos' program in that if the product does not fit correctly, you can ship them back without cost. I am happy with the product and Zappos.

I tried out this shoe, because of the way Zappos led me to a shoe that I would want. Also, because I could return it if I was not happy. I tried Zappos, because I had an unhappy experience at Amazon. These are comfortable, fit correctly, and are nice to walk on.

These shoes are well made and attractive. I use them in casual and semi-business: situations. They are somewhat tight around the lass. I am hoping that it eventually works out. I really do want them to become my go to shoe.

These shoes were recommended by my podiatrist as a means of conservative efforts to help with the pain in the joint of my big toe. When I first put the shoe on I could feel an incredible difference. I definitely noticed the "roller bar". It's been over a month now and they're still good, except that I think the shoe naturally wears to the point where there is not enough stiffness to solve my problem. This is the best solution for now, however until surgery.

I am generally satisfied with the MW927. I have Plantar Fasciitis in one foot, so unfortunately, walking hurts, regardless of the shoe. I have had the shoes for about a month, and they feel as comfortable as any shoes I own. I recommend them for good quality everyday shoes.

This shoe should cost less than the balance of the MW 927 choices because it is not leather. Won't buy again.

Not a perfect shoe for my feet (a pair of Crocs comes closest) but my best pair of work shoes. Feels like a walking shoe, meaning flat with little in the way of cushion. Definitely not spongy. So, walking on hard floors all day long they leave something to be desired. The widest shoe I've bought, yet not quite wide enough. I'm guessing I'm a 7E. Still and all better than all the rest. I have a lot of foot issues. Plus I'm an older guy (58) with a long history of foot abuse - marathons, martial arts, etc., so I can't blame the shoe entirely. I'm still looking for an ideal shoe, but this will do in the meantime. I appreciate the speed with which it was sent to me.

I have been help with fast service over the phone to acomodate my delivery need with no extra charges. I have been a customer for a while and the fact that you don\'t have the pressure to return when shoes don\'t work for you is good.\r\nWhy not save a little money and have a good experience shopping!\r\n\r\nMy husband and I have difficult time finding shoes that fit confortable with orthotics.

These are very padded and pretty darned comfortable. There is a seam on the outside of the left shoe that seems a bit large, and thus rubs a bit on joint before my little toe. Oddly enough, that seam is well aligned on the other shoe and is no problem. These shoes are not light, but are well cushioned and solid and run true to size.

First off, Zappos did a great job. I needed to know if 4E or 6E fit me better and they took back my returns perfectly. (Thanks for that) Now I have had my NB 4E shoes a while and have been wearing them at work daily...on the hard concrete. I have developed Plantar Fasciitis and prior to these shoes I wondered if I could keep working on concrete. I removed all orthotics and wear these NB shoes just like the factory made them. My pain has diminished. It is so important to get shoes that fit your feet. I was sacrificing proper length so I could get the width I needed. These provide the necessary width. I am not real fond of the style of laces they use but that is a minor item and can be fixed. Hence the lower rating.

I have been through several pairs of different styles of New Balance shoes looking for something for me, and nothing seemed right. The MW 927's I ordered are my favorites yet. I'm a very big man, 6'2" 350 and I wear size 13EEEE and in past years I've broken the 4th & 5th metatarsals in both feet. And at times I get tendinitis or something in them. I usually "walk down" a pair of shoes in a few weeks, and they are broken down in a couple of months. As far as long wear I can't say yet, but, comfort and cushion these shoes have given me. I WILL buy them again!

I pretty much have to buy NB, due to the scarcity of 4E width in brands.

Very comfortable, but wide toe looks a little "blooby" (not a trim style).

I have stayed with this style 925,926 and now 927 for the last 10 years and this pair is the first pair I have been disappointed in. After 3 weeks the shoe separated from the sole. Not good as I have watch the price climb and double in the last ten years.

Recommended by my podiatrist. Not bad, very stable shoe but not very stylish and for some reason started to rub a blister on the bottom of my right big toe, has never happened in any other shoe. Will take a break and try them again for walking, maybe with band-aid on toe, or perhaps thicker socks. Fits SuperFeet insoles well though.

The tongue of the right shoe has a hard spot on it where the top leather cover tucks into the flesh of the tongue causing discomfort to the ankle.

These are wonderfully comfortable walking shoes, but I have had some issues. (1) The first pair I received had developed a wear spot in the heel after about 2 months which was extremely irritating and made them unwearable. Zappos exchanged them for a new pair. (2) The second pair was shipped quickly, but was the wrong width. Zappos exchanged them for a new pair. (3) The third pair was perfect on the left, but the right caused unusual pressure on the top front of my foot, making it unwearable for even short walks. After regular bending and pounding with a mallet, the top has stretched and softened to the point that the right shoe is wearable, but still not as comfortable as the left, which is perfect. I have worn nothing but New Balance running and walking shoes for the past 25 years or so and have never had any problem. I've always loved their fit and quality so I am assuming that I just got a few lemons with this style and will be perfectly content after the right show is completely broken in. Zappos support has been excellent and I expect they would have exchanged the third pair, but I think they will be fine as they break in, so I did not try to return them as I believe their normal policy is to allow only one exchange per purchase and I had worn the shoes so they are not re-sellable.

The shoes fit reasonably well.This is my first pair of walking shoes; until now I have used running shoes for walking. I prefer the running shoes over these for both feel and look. The shoes look a bit too much like hospital shoes or shoes for the elderly! I will use them until they wear out but I will not get another pair.

Unfortunately, these shoes are stiffer than my black pair, which irritates my hammer toes and arthritis. But they are the only pair of brown shoes I could find, so I'm keeping them.
