Customer Reviews New Balance WW577

I have bunions and these caused my feet to ache within a couple hours of wearing them. I didn't think they provided enough cushioning or support for the soles of my feet. They might be fine for someone without foot pains, or if you put different insoles in. I love New Balance shoes and I ended buying a pair that was a half size larger and wide width and they worked great.

I was disappointed with this sneaker. I've ordered this brand before and never had a problem with width. This 2E was much too wide. Since I wear an ankle brace on my right foot I need a wider width but I'm swimming in this one. Should have sent it back.

I am a size 5.5 and it's hard to find sneakers that fit. These fit fine in size, but the support is terrible. They are so built up on the outside edges that my feet slope inwards towards each other, instead of being level. I would not buy New Balance again if this is the way all their shoes are built. I feel like I'm walking on the outside edges of my feet. I had stopped buying Rykas because the last pair were so narrow in the toe, but I may have to go back to them and try again.

These shoes feel very cheaply made. They also have a strange long toe area. I am returning them.

May be the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I have arthritis in my feet so the deep toe is great. However, I hate to say that these shoes squeak to the point of being embarrassing to wear! Thought I had found the perfect shoes!

I've been having trouble with my feet, so I was going for comfort instead of style when I ordered this shoe. It definitely looks a little orthopedic, and I didn't find them to be comfortable at all. I wear an 8.5. I ordered a 9 and that still felt short. I had them on for a minute and couldn't wait to take them off. They are going back!

I've been wearing New Balance for several years now, so I was confident this shoe would work for me. However, it just does not fit well. At first I thought I just needed to break it in, but the collar on the right shoe continues to rub and/or cause blisters, even after several weeks of wear. I've tried massaging the leather to soften the shoe but nothing helps. The tongue just comes up too far, resulting in painful pressure on the sides and front of my ankle. The left shoe fits the same way but for some reason doesn't cause the same problems. I can't see any defect in the shoe, so I can't send it back. But I can't wear it either, so come fall I'll start looking for a better-fitting pair of shoes.

Nice round toe, but shoe is one inch too short, and too narrow in the wide width. the leather is too stiff to open up and be comfortable.

I’ve worn New Balance for years because NB athletic shoes fit my narrow foot well, provide arch support and look nice. This shoe is HORRIBLE. It feels, looks, and smells faux leather. It’s so stiff I had to really work to get it on. The sizing is off. It’s ugly.

Supposedly the correct size, but at least a full size smaller. Wish I'd kept the box so I could return them. They're just collecting dust.

You sent the wrong size. I am not happy because I ordered when there were "2 left" I feel sure that the company sent same shoe, 1/2 size smaller on purpose to make a sale. I think this because in the past when my size was out of stock zappo's suggested a different size, which is crazy. If the company had been accurate and told me it was out I could have driven to a store and bought a pair. Instead you made me package it up and take it to a UPS representative. All this when I was leaving town and wanted the shoes with me. Not happy.

Not awesome at all. The shoes squeak horribly. Bought them for my Wife, her walking shoes. The noise is unacceptable. Very first time this has ever happened. Always buy New Balance.

Because of my neuropathy, it helps to wear wide width sneakers. The width and length were fine, but I would not recommend these because... (1) The bottoms were extremely hard. They felt like bricks, and I only took few steps inside my apartment. (2) Absolutely no arch support (3) I noticed they were heavy, just taking few steps in my apartment. I returned them right away. Thank you Zappos!

uncomfortable

Too bad the company had to save a few pennies by shortening the tongue. They don’t work at all.

I was disappointed to find that the drawbacks in the reviews of other customers about these shoes are all true. It is at least half a size shorter than the size labeled of 10.5, fits like a 10 instead. It is accurate on the narrow width. The design and leather upper is good, and the fact the footbed is removable to use custom orthotics. The laces are a good length. The stiffness of the leather is very uncomfortable, and so is the lack of cushioning. It feels like walking in cardboard boxes. They also squeek, with or without orthotics. I will be returning these and trying a different brand of shoes. New Balance has failed to provide the comfort they once did in this and the other styles of their walking shoes, and I plan to skip using them in the future. At the prices charged for their shoes, they should pay more attention to padding and do some testing before putting them on the market.

These did not look like the picture. The toe part was literally square. I will be returning them.

This shoe is too rigid to walk in.

okay fit... too heavy

Overall uncomfortable. Much too stiff. Tongue is .75 "shorter than the model this shoe replaced. Too painful to wear.

I ordered a size 8.5 M and couldn't figure out why it was so hard to get them on, and impossible to wear. I looked at the inside of the tongue to discover they were an 8 N. The box stated the correct size I ordered, but that's not what was in it. These were an obvious return. I could see only one shoe had been tried on among other things. The person probably ordered two of the same shoes in different sizes and put the ones I received in the wrong box. However, that error should have been caught. Quality control was definitely not on the ball that dayI I hope this doesn't become a habit. I have always had great service with Zappos and was extremely disappointed.

These shoes were not comfortable at all. I didn’t even have them on 5 minutes. Returning them.

the entire shoe was incredibly stiff
