Customer Reviews New Balance WW846

These are wonderful shoes. I have been having heel pain after walking (fast paced for 30-45 minutes but not race walking) and decided to research walking shoes. These were one of the two highly ranked for pronators. After ordering a 9M I had to return them for a wide, but am glad I did. The toe box is very comfortable and roomy (lots of height as well as width and height was there in regular as well), while the heel fits securely. I still have minor heel pain but it is much improved. By the way, last year I had purchased a 9M in a New Balance running shoe (and it still fits fine). I had also tried the Asics Gel Foundation Walker in a 9M but it was too small.

I love shopping with Zappos! I am always pleased with the service and that is the name of the game. I got my New Balance shoes next day. You cannot beat that! I love Zappos.

Very comfortable shoe. A half size larger than normal is good.

Love these shoes. The fit is a little snug, but great for working out in the gym. The styling is noticeable with the hot pink accents & the pink breast cancer ribbon on the side. I have had several comments on them.

A sneaker with enough room for my toes! I started power walking with a friend and these sneakers are wonderful. No cramped toes and the arch is just right. Great sneaker!

I found this shoe to be true to size and width. It was comfortable from the moment I put in on, no burning feet or nothing but sheer comfort. I would highly recommend this shoe to anyone. It is also a very nice looking,stylish shoe.

Like walking on air! I have terrible feet - neuromas, 2 bunion surgeries, and now a broken little toe that healed badly with resulting surgery that also healed badly. Never knew how important it is that the little toe be right. Bless Zappos. I ordered 36 pairs of hiking/walking shoes to once and for all find shoes that fit, that I can walk distances in, that don't hurt my poor feet! I would've had to go all over town for days trying on shoes and still may not have found the right shoe. I found these shoes at Zappos and love them. Enough that I bought a second pair immediately in a different color. I did my research on shoes with not only wide toe boxes, but tall toe boxes. New Balance rates their shoes according to the way they're built. Their SL-2 rating means wide and tall toe boxes. Makes all the difference in the world. Lots of cushioning, too. No hard leather sides to cramp my poor little toe. My toenails also sort of point up and normally after long walks, eventually bruise because of pressure from the shoe. I also caved and bought the wide size vs medium. Should have done that long ago. That's all resolved with these wonderful shoes.

This is a cushy walk for feet that have tender spots. I almost feel like I\'m bouncing when I come down on the heel. Although the arch support is not as high as I usually seek, it feels great and my feet do not get that tired low-arch feeling.

I've owned most of the prior versions of this shoe, and have loved them all. This one seems to be the best. It's extremely comfortable - I feel I could walk in them all day with no problems. It's true to size, although I order a half size up from my dressier shoes because of socks. I highly recommend them!

After 2 tries to find the right shoe/fit this shoe meets my needs. Order 1/2 size larger. This shoes provides excellent support for moderate high arch for pronation problems. Zappos, great customer support and fast shipping.

I love these shoes. I have mortons neuroma and need extra room for my toes. These shoes are amazing. Roomy, my orthothics fit, and they are all black, so I can wear to work. Well worth the money. I'm planning to buy a second pair to have as a backup.

These shoes are great for walking. I wear orthotics and they work perfectly. For some reason I always need a 12N in New Balance while with any other shoe I wear an 11N. Needless to say, Zappos is incredible. I thought about buying these shoes for months, ordered them, and magically had them the next morning. What more can I ask for....Thank you Zappos!

These are fantastically comfortable walking shoes. As an RN, I\'m on my feet for long periods of time, and comfort is a must. I wear a prescription orthotic inside so can\'t really judge the arch support.

Love them. Have had the 842, 843, 845 and now have the 846. They wear forever-start out as exercise class sneakers, then weekend\/errands use, and finally lawn work. I have bad feet and am overweight so I wouldn\'t use anything else.

I have used these sneakers for walking and I found them to be very comfortable and I am very picky because most sneakers are too heavy, too high in the back. These are perfect! worth the money.

I purchased these shoes because I have the 845 in black for work. Very comfortable. I broke my toe and needed a shoe with a deep toe box to fit my bandaged foot. These worked great and still fit well without the bandages.

I love New Balance in general and these did not disappoint. I ordered 7.5 and I really should have ordered a 7. I felt I needed a larger toe box as I\'m having some tootsie problems, but they then were also larger in heel, etc. Just wearing thick socks with them. Anyway, order your true size and you won\'t go wrong.

I recently purchased these shoes locally and was very surprised to see the low rating they've received on Zappos! I plan to order a pair from Zappos just to have a spare on hand for when these start to wear. They are a perfect walking shoe: low heel that tapers in (unlike running shoes where the heel usually flares out in back), good arch support, cushioning and comfortable strike path. I bought the white w/blue but the version with pink trim (Komen) is nice, too! My only complaint is that they were made in China instead of the USA.

This is my fifth pair of New Balance walking shoes. This WW846 is just as wonderful as the others. I order a half size larger than my regular shoe size. I walk at last two miles every day and my feet never hurt while I\'m wearing New Balance shoes. Zappos service is great.

Comfortable shoe right out of the box. Very happy with fit - I usually wear either an 8 or 8.5 in most shoes, but knew from past experience to go with an 8.5 in New Balance. Previous reviewer was correct with regard to the sole being slippery - I noticed how slick they felt while walking across a restaurant's tile floor. Something to be aware of! Overall, I'd purchase this shoe again.

I've been wearing the 843 series forever. I can't wear any other shoe because I have flexible flat feet. The pink shoes benefit the Susan G. Komen foundation, an organization who has betrayed all women. Susan G. Komen does not believe in a women's right to manage their own bodies and stopped funding Planned Parenthood, an organization that provides breast cancer screening to all women but most of all the poor.

Overall these are good shoes. The shoes rise a bit high at the back which results in rubbing - if I wear them all day, that area is sore. The toe is very roomy, which I like but the result of that is that the top of the shoe gaps. They are good for walking and provide good support.

I have this same style in black and they are great. These seem a little harder to break in. there is almost no arch support, so i bought one of my own. With the arch support it is much better. The heels slip a little also. None of these problems are too difficult to overcome. Since I have difficult feet I chose to keep them and hope they feel like the black ones eventually.
