Good fit. I have to send back a couple before I got my right size. I settled for size 8 which I normally wear 9 and a 2E when I usually wear 4E

Leather top too thin, disappointing: cracked in two places within a month of use. Did not abuse the shoe, did not get it wet, just normal pickleball court play.

It was a wide but it still felt a little narrow. It responded well to a little stretching. I will say though, I have tried 9 wide pickleball shoes and this was by far the best one. Since court shoes provide a lot of lateral support they just seem to run snug and are uncomfortable. These were by far the best for a wide foot.

All I wanted was another pair of 1006. Evidentally, they are not made anymore. I miss the mesh so there is some way for my feet to breathe.

I have had about a dozen of this same style. Great for pickleball as well as tennis. I wish they lasted a bit longer. Treads wear out sooner than I would like but I also play alot of pickle.

Very pleased with my "tennis" shoes that I wear for pickleball! I like the stability (I'm 200+ lbs.) As well as the comfort they provide. Solid shoes so far.

11 narrow is a good fit for my feet. I like the structure and support of a tennis shoe versus other sneakers.

The uppers were no doubt leather as advertised. But I could detect no leather-like suppleness that I was looking for and required to get a good fit.

Love this shoe. It has a strong footbed, wide and feels great for walking, tennis or working out. If you have a wide foot, this is a great shoe.

The all-leather design provides great support around the foot. The insole may not feel like much, but the inside is shaped in a way that's ideal for someone like me who suffered from plantar fasciitis with other major brands. This legacy shoe lives up to its reputation and expectations, and I don't think I'll be wearing anything else. Highly recommend this shoe.

New Balance currently holds the market on size Wide shoes for everyday wear and for tennis. These are comfortable out of the box and the all-white is classic for tennis or casual.

These are the tennis classics. They are one of the few tennis shoes out there that stay consistent season after season.
