Customer Reviews New Balance Hook and Loop 577

We have been wearing NB Health Walking shoes for at least 10 years. We find them extremely comfortable. Since they do not vary from year to yea we are able to order new pairs as they wear out from use, without having to go to a store to try them on. Keep up the good work!

Perfect fit. I need wide size and hard to find in the store.

We need a very wide shoe and this is true to size.

Hi, I do a lot of walking and these are the shoes I trust. I usually pick up a pair every 6 months or so as I have worn out the old ones by walking at that point. So may say that is, "boring," or , "safe,' As I staunchly refuse any other type of show and have been doing this since highschool. But what can I say, I'm a boring guy.

Great shoes. Overall quality is excellent. This is my fourth pair. Tried cheaper ones - just don't hold up.

This is at least the fourth pair of these shoes I've bought for my husband. He has an especially wide foot, and these come in a size that fits him. He especially likes the velcro closing that allows for easy on and off. He often wears the shoes all day long, and they provide much better support than others he has worn. Thanks, LL Bean, for carrying the extra wide size in a good quality shoe. We will definitely be buying again.

Comfortable, and easy to slip on and off. Enjoy putting these on after walking 18 holes in golf shoes. Sometimes I wear these on the course.

Unlike the other NB walking shoes I've bought over the past 10 years, this shoe is really well made. The white leather doesn't blister or peel when you get it wet. The tread hasn't separated from the sole of the shoe either. In the past I've even had the leather separate from the sole. This is the first time in a long time that none of those things has happened with these shoes. These are better made and better designed. Shocking...but true. If they can only keep this up then NB would be a really good shoe company again. I even bought another pair and hope they keep this model around for a long time because I will definitely buy more of them. I do not know about the other models though but this one is a winner.

I have ordered this item shoe several times, and get good wear out of them. Comfortable enough for casual wear, looks good enough to wear out in day errands, and even some gatherings. The hook-and-loop fastenings are so much easier to use than any kind of laces, as the fit may be adjusted so much more easily. And they are easy to keep up.

I am 69 years old and walk about 1 hour ever other day to stay healthy. I have tried many different walking shoes and in my opinion, the NB 577 is the best walking shoe on the planet. Very reasonable price for a shoe of such fine quality. Additionally, they are "Made in the USA." I always keep a new pair in the closet for future use. I highly recommend this product!

These are the only shoes that I have bought in the last several year, and I wear them for most everything, including as dress shoes (I can't find any dress shoes that will fit my feet due an instep that is high and far forward on my foot). These shoes wear very well compared to most other shoes that I have purchased. They are also comfortable and provide good support for my feet. Because feet vary, these shoes may not work for all people, but they are certainly worth serious consideration.

I have 2 pairs of 840 walking shoes but liked the fact that the 577's are USA assembled and are real leather. they fit well and I especially like the comfort insert. sizing seems same as the 840's

I used to own the New Balance 928, and while they were very high quality, comfortable, and lasted for years, the Roll Bar didn't play well with my feet, so I needed something that had all the 928 comfort and dependability but no rollbar. I tried the other two major models of NB walkers, but neither fit that well (my narrow heel slips out of shoes if I can't tighten them enough). The 577 with the velcro straps fits perfectly, and wearing them at my job, which requires walking on concrete for about 3-4 miles every day, they are a life-saver. Make sure to change out the insoles for something good and squishy if you buy these; there is definitely as much room as advertised in the shoe for such things. I'm going to try the lace-up version next, but I will definitely be buying the 577 from now on!

This is my third pair of this shoe. I wore the first pair which was white until they were worn out. I bought a second pair in bone color to dress up a little bit. Finally, I bought another white pair. I love the comfort, ease of putting on and taking off, and the price is very fair. They are worth the money and the New Balance website makes it easy to find just the right size I wear. I am a diabetic, so the fit of my shoes is very important. I would recommend this shoe to any other diabetic.
