One thing about the several pair of NB shoes I own is that the Velcro strap is not long enough. Maybe I have a higher instep than these shoes were designed for. The Velcro connection is too small and sometimes the flap comes loose. Otherwise, it is a good quality shoe.

When my foot is in the shoe, both top and bottom straps do not cover all Velcro.The short straps make it harder to fasten and unfasten for an older person.I feel that for the cost, the company should not skimp in the length of the straps.

I thought they would stretch; they didn't. I ordered the same thing a half size larger and they fit perfectly.

Perfect fit but looked plastic. Need real leather not man made materials. Returned for credit.

I have 5-6 pairs of NB 13 EE shoes/boots. These are the first ones that didn’t fit my feet. One whole size too small. A bit narrow. No support. Hate them. Taking them to Goodwill.

I bought these shoes only for use on my treadmill and exercise bike. They never leave the house - never. I started to experience some lower leg pain after about two weeks use and decided to replace the insoles with a "gel" type product. What a disappointment when I removed the factory insoles. They are thin and offer very little cushioning - no wonder my lower legs hurt. The construction and fit of the shoes is great, so hopefully my new insoles will be better for my lower legs.

My Black 577's are too tight of fit than my White 577's that I received previously. Takes too long to break them in, and then they get loose.

I really wanted to like these shoes, but the width (even for the Wide model) runs a bit tight, and the sole is stiff enough that walking for long periods of time becomes uncomfortable. I also agree with another reviewer that the synthetic materials make the shoes hotter and sweatier.

I rated this shoe a three, for a walking shoe they should be more comfortable than they are. After about 2 hours on my feet, my feet ache more than I feel they should. I had more comfort in a pair of $19 Dickies from Costco then these.

I've had a few pairs of New Balance MW577 before this last pair and they fit great and were comfortable out of the box and wore well. My complaint about these shoes are the white finish, on both shoes toes, bubbled up and peeled off, leaving ugly gray leather spots. They are now relegated to yard work shoes.

Believe it or not they squeak when I walk. Do you have any suggestions?

These shoes fit good and are comfortable. However, after wearing for awhile they tend to come apart at the toe seams. I wish they were more rugged but I haven't found anything else that fits as well. Since they are guaranteed and you do replace them if they come apart, I continue to order them.

This is the first time in years of use that the top loop (hook) is crooked, It does not go over the shoe straight. It can still be used and the shoes fir fine but is distracting in appearance in the loop area. .

Comfortable and convenient; but the velcro straps are too short. That's been a complaint for years. Why can't it be addressed??

The shoe was comfortable but it looked like an orthopec shoe at the toe box. I am 65 but still prefer something a little more stylish. I returned it for a comfortable shoe in the "work shoe" category that was just as comfortable but much better looking.

I have been trying to find a replacement for New Balance canvas shoe CT520. The MW577 was my latest attempt. The shoes seem well made, and the right size, but I do not find them comfortable. The instep seems tight even unlaced, and the leather tongue digs into my ankle. After walking a while the ball of my left foot starts to ache.

Arch support OK, better than most. Comfortable shoes. They have a substantial feel with out the weight. I found left heel a little loose. Went with Dunham Lexington over these.

I've owned nothing but NB athletic shoes for at least ten years. However, recently I have had a lot of trouble getting any NB to fit and these are no exception. 11 1/2 suddenly is too short and tight, 12 still tight. Wide size ridiculously wide and the look of the wide shoe draws laughs from my walking friends. Oh I long for the old days when I'd buy two pair of 621s at a time. They fit like a glove and wore like iron. Gave up on 623s. This 577 is not nearly as nice, still fits poorly and now sits in the gym bag. Worn but unworn. Sorry.

The shoes fit very well and are comfortable. The velcro straps hold tight but I can see where the velcro is separating from the leather. This is after two weeks of wear. I will probably have to glue it.

Only gave three stars 'cause not sure how they'll hold up yet. Bought these for my husband who has issues tying his shoes. He wanted to try the velcro sneakers to see if it was any easier than bending over to tie the shoes. These sneakers, or 'walking shoes' I guess they're called, look good and fit well. He got them in wide and the wide seemed to fit fine. At first I was concerned that the tabs that fasten on the velcro didn't pull far enough over on the velcro, if you know what I mean. Lots of velcro still exposed. But then he pulled the closure tighter and they fastened better, and he said it didn't hurt, so we'll see. My husband is very, very hard on his shoes so I want to see how well the velcro holds up for him; if it keeps the shoe closed and doesn't wear out too fast.
