The pile was very slippery, and the narrow strap across the top did not hold my foot in the slipper. It slipped sideways off the slipper. Not safe. With the height of the sole, it could result in a fall or injury.

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!

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.

The shoe was much wider than a "AA" - and also was shorter than usual. I was waiting for the same shoe in a natural color, but will cancel when it is available. The shoe is well built, but quite heavy to wear.

My problem was with the top velcro strip, that wold not close. I've experienced this issue with other New Balance shoes, so will no longer consider this brand when searching for velcro closing shoes.

The pair that you sent are defective. The tongue of the right shoe is half an inch longer that the tongue or the left shoe. It hurts my foot. What can you do for me

The velcro tabs were too short meaning fit could not be adjusted. Only fit with very thin socks like hosiery. The tongue was very stiff and rubbed against top of foot when walking. Unfortunately, had to return.

I had to return the shoe, I have a similar pair WW411 NB that are a perfect fit and comfortable, shoes but the WW577 was way to tight thought they would all fit the same!!!

Heavy and stiff leather! Very uncomfortable on my sensitive feet. The sides and top were hard and the insoles felt unsupportive. The velcro straps were too short, so I could barely get them to stay closed. Exchanged them for the 411v2 which are much more much flexible and comfortable.

i found this shoe to run abit small but the advantage of having the velcro strips and being able to buy them in narrow made them a wonderful purchase i live in a very small town in far west texas and finding a narrow shoe here is impossible i will definately buy this size and style again

In looking for a different pair of shoes, I ordered these. When I tried them on, I realized my orthotics wouldn't allow me to wear them. The fit was too short and narrow. Unfortunately, I had to return the shoes.

This shoe style was disappointing. The tongue of the shoe was constructed in such a way that the fabric was bulky and intrusive on the inside. It made the shoe very uncomfortable. New Balance can do better than that as their other styles do not seem to have that issue. The shoe was chosen for a 93 year old senior citizen with difficulty fitting shoes. It seemed like a good option but we found that the propet company was certainly a better option.

Fit was fine, but inside of shoe was not comfortable. The junction of the tongue with the rest of the shoe was not comfortable.

The hook section of the Velcro closures are too long and not fully covered by the mesh top when secured closed. The hooks grab on to the bottom of your pant legs and destroy them. They ruin all your pant legs!

The strap is way too short and the uncovered velcro frays my pants and gets stuck on furniture covers. It also looks ugly not stretching far enough to cover the fastener as shown in the illustration Sorry I bought it as I don't wear it as has ruined my pants.

Bought these for my 89 year old Mom. She had an old pair of New Balance (847's) and wanted a good walking shoe. Loved that these were real leather and had velcro so she could easily put on and take off. When they came in, she tried on and hated. She thought they were too stiff, and really thought the tongue was too stiff. We exchanged for the 847v2's and she is very happy. When I looked at this shoe, I didn't feel what Mom felt, but she was the one having to wear them. She does have really bad feet with bunions and hammertoes, so her issues may have been more than this shoe could "fix".

Upper of shoe is too stiff, pinches tops of feet when I walk. Interior has rough areas where tongue attaches. Straps are too short.

Unfortunately, the main criticism expressed in these reviews about the straps being too short, leaving a lot of velcro exposed, is true. I ordered a pair of these, hoping they'd be fine for me but when they arrived and I put them on, the stop strap on both shoes left a good 1 1/2 to 2 inches of velcro exposed. I don't have fat feet but I DO have high arches. Perhaps those who are having problems with the short straps are also those with high arches. Regardless, New Balance should make the straps long enough to cover the velcro with room to spare. Who wants to have their slacks snagged or socks caught on velcro? I'm disappointed because the shoes themselves feel quite comfy but with the velcro issue, they had to go back.

In spite of being listed as a Wide, Wide shoe this is not true to size, it's considerably narrower than a wide, wide shoe. I've been wearing these for about a week in the hopes they'd stretch a bit but no such luck. Next time I'll look at men's sneakers and hope they are a wider fit.

I purchased this sneaker for my elderly mother who needs a sturdy, easy to get on and off sneaker. This sneaker ran very small in size and width. Plus there was not enough length on the velcro closures to properly wear the shoe.
