Customer Reviews New Balance WW577

This shoe is soft but sometimes squeaks. I would have kept them anyway for the comfort but they were too small. They did not appear to be well made considering they were New Balance. But I kept trying to order them in different sizes because of the softness.

Good looking shoe. Fit is good but I change sole and insert my orthodics--that was good. I tried wearing several different times always in the house. My big-big-big problem is they constantly squeak (a squeak like nails on the chalkboard). I am returning to Zappos and going to try another shoe.

These shoes were a nice fit but the inside edge of the tongue was obtrusive rather than laying flat, and it hurt my feet.

My husband bought these because the mesh NB shoes get holes in the toes too quickly. The 577 is supposedly leather, although the shoe is not marked with the materials and neither is the box marked with the materials. The shoe is also NOT made in the USA. The tongue of the shoe ways it is made in Vietnam. The shoe also makes farting squeaking noises when he walks.

I like this style but these shoes were stiff and difficult to get in. Also clunky.

beautiful tennis but hurt my deformed feet

This is what happens when you order shoes online. I have had New Balance shoes for years and tried to go to a less expensive pair but there is not enough cushioning around the upper edge, they are heavy and stiff and the collar near the tongue rubs on my ankle. Also, I would prefer a thicker, softer inner sole.

Very hard no cushion. Poor arch support .Had room for arch supports

I ordered a half size larger and they worked fine. The w width was ok. The support lacked a lot. After 3 hours the ball of my foot had severe pain. Tried again had heel and foot pain. No way can I tolerate these shoes.

The suggestion to order a half size up is true. However, I returned them as I felt the heel was too high for my foot. It hit at a place that rubbed. I have used the 411 for the past 10 years, always reordering when they wore out, but they were not available so I ordered these. Sorry they didn’t work out.

I normally wear a 9 wide in New Balance shoes - this pair felt at least a half size too small. Returning to try both a 9 1/2 and a 10.

I have a wide foot (EE) with a high arch and narrow heels, and finding shoes to fit is always a challenge (especially when manufacturers keep 'upgrading' styles). This shoe is a great fit - the toe box is wide and deep enough that my toes aren't squished together. There's room for orthotics and I really like the extra lacing holes that allow me to get a snug fit at the heel. There's not much arch support for me (high arch, remember) but it might work for someone who needs moderate support. They're not the most attractive shoe, but at this point in my life, I choose comfort over looks (although, really, how hard is it to make wider shoes in the same fun colors as standard widths???). My problem is with the tongue of the shoe when it's on and tied - the edges are thick and stiff and dig into my ankles. After just a few minutes of wearing around the house, I have very sore, very red marks on my ankles. I really wanted to like this shoe - it's the best fit I've found in a long time - but I won't be able to wear them long enough for the tongues to break in and soften up.

There was so much padding in these sneakers that it was really too much. They looked big on my feet.

These were supposed to replace an old pair of New Balance which were size 10-1/2 . I ordered these shoes in both Wide (d) and Medium (b). The Wide were enormous. The b were still really large and clunky. And very stiff. I went with a different model (WW928), for more money but much better in comfort and less stiff. They still run too wide, though, and will keep the b and return the d. Also, the arch support in these shoes is minimal.

Unfortunately the toe room for my left foot was too tight, and I have to return them. Otherwise they would have worked very well for me.

Formerly wore Saucony but they changed their fit. I wear a size 9 in athletic shoes and I could tell just by looking these were too small. I even made sure to check that the size was correct. I had to return.

Meh. These will do and I'm keeping them, but they are very stiff and require breaking in, especially the tongue which digs into my ankle. I needed room in the toe box so I ordered wide, and they're fine there, but the heels are too wide. And, I had to leave them outside for a couple of days to let them out-gas, they stank. They have some arch support but not enough for me, I will be using inserts.
