The footbed fits perfectly, but the straps are too short.

I have very narrow feet and can not find men's shoes narrow enough for me. The Women's 577 in AA width are just right. They look exactly the same as the men's shoes, but fit me much better. Being 84 years old, the velcro closure makes getting my shoes on and off much easier. Wish New Balance would make more stylish men's shoes with the velcro closure and narrow widths.

I really, really like these shoes. They are very comfortable with good support. I especially like that they come in narrow width. That's hard to find.

The tabs on the hook & loop straps are a bit too small/too narrow for my hands & fingers to grip. I had no difficulty with my first pair years ago. However, it’s awkward now for me to pull the straps loose on this latest pair, but that could just be me!
Make excellent “house slippers”.

But no more! I have rheumatoid arthritis and hard to fit feet. I have been buying New Balance size 8, 2E wide walking shoes for over a decade. But when I ordered a new pair, of size 8, 2E wide, they were, for the first time ever, too narrow. I then tried the 2E, size 8-1/2. These were too big, but still small in the toe box. I also went through the same experience with your 813 model. They do come in 4E width, so, after the first pair were didn't fit, I re-ordered them in a size 8, 4E. These were too wide in the heel but still tight in the toe box. I am so extremely disappointed. What did you do? I have owned at least a 1/2 dozen pair of these shoes. I am currently wearing size 8 2E New Balance shoes, so please do not tell me my feet have changed. But for some inextricable reason your shoes no longer fit. I hope you can fix this!

Horrible shoe. I was so disappointed. I could barely get my foor in, the straps were so short the velco wouldn't match up and close.
avoid this shoe.

I bought a pair of these in 2009 to wear while walking my dog (at least a mile to a mile and a half every day). They just now wore out, mostly because I stepped on a stick and it went into the shoe between sole and leather. They are COMFORTABLE. They are quick to put on and take off at the door. They never make my very bumpy feet (bunion and hammer toe) hurt because there is plenty of room in the shoe box. And the new ones? Didn't need a bit of "break-in" time. LOVE them. Bought them in bone and black both times. THANK YOU New Balance and Zappos.

Super comfortable shoe right off the bat....but the Velcro straps were too short to reach across the shoe, leaving the rough edges of exposed Velcro exposed on one side of the shoe. That section would both collect fuz, etc. and snag on the fabric of my clothing. So I did not buy them. But this seems like a simple fix. I would definitely buy them if this issue were fixed.

I used these shoes for neighborhood walks. 4 times a week. 3 miles. The soles lasted a few months before the heels wore off.

I ordered these as a gift for my sister in law but in the wrong size, 9. When I found out she wore 81/2 2A I seared website for that size. There were only 4 shoes left. I called Zappos customer service & they sent me the 81/2. I received it the next day. They also emailed a return label for size 9.
My sister in law loves the shoes, she said they are very comfortable & the Velcro makes it so easy to put on. Thanks to customer service for the assistance.

Shoes fit perfect. Because I need a 8 WW , which I can't find in any of the local stores, I am extra grateful that I can find them on Zappos and order them. I placed my order on a Saturday, and since it said "two working days" delivery, I was surprised when UPS already showed up on Monday with my shoes, which by the way came with free shipping. I am very satisfied with Zappo's customer service and the availability of my size. Thank You, Zappos.

This is a great shoe, and we are most happy with the product! The problem was the shopping experience. The shoe showed a visual of a Velcro (hook and loop) closure. There were several color choices by clicking on a box. What I did not realize was that as I clicked a color box, some showed as a laced closure instead. In my view, the laced version and the Velcro version should have 2 separate pages. Unfortunately we had to go through the hassle of returning one when it arrived as it was not the closure we believed we had ordered.

I have problems walking due to breaking both of my feet many years ago. I work as a nurse and have been wearing New Balance sneakers since they are comfortable and fit my Orthotics without a problem, I always try to buy made in USA or at least assembled in USA because I know they are made well and I am supporting American workers. I have no problems with these sneakers at all.

The shoe was comfortable but the strap was to short. I have a high instep so it didn't work for me.

These shoes used to have a raised back, shoe laces and extra eyelets, I have bought at least 6 pairs like that. Unfortunately, they now come only with low backs and velcro closings so they slip all the time.

I have bought and worn this New Balance shoe for several years, because it is the only one that has helped me with my knee issues. I also don't live near a NB store, so I order them online. This time, when I received my shoes, I found they squeaked.and after wearing them for a few days, I realized the squeak would not go away. I then looked into returning them, but found I could not because in order to do so, they have to be "new," and I, like I said, have worn them for a few days. Now, everywhere I go when I wear them, everyone will know my New Balance shoes squeak.

I like the shoe. I am wearing it with an ankle foot orthosis brace and ordered the widest availaiable. Even with the widest shoe, the velcro straps are too short and don't attach with the brace on. It still works because the shoe is so tight over the brace, the velcro straps not attached doesn't matter. The shoe is not going to come off easily.
