Received my New Balance sneakers. Fit great, quick shipping, can't complain. Great service. I would recommend this particular sneaker to anyone.

Love this shoe. I play about 2-3x/week and the 4E is perfect width and allows for my orthotics insert. The toe box has a solid rubber tip that won't rip or tear from on-court toe drags, like I tend to do. Super comfortable and stable laterally. Not the lightest shoe, but that's not an issue given the comfort and support. Because I have wide feet and need orthotics (had achilles surgery years ago) I pretty much only buy New Balance. These I highly recommend.

This is a New Balance shoe so there is no surprises regarding sizing compared to other New Balance shoe. I am using this shoe for training and walking and it works very well in this service.

I have had several pair of New Balance tennis shoes and have always been very happy with them and these are no exception. I need a wide shoe and these great. Comfortable, very stable with good support.

This is the second pair of New Balance tennis shoes I have ordered for my husband. He needs the wider width and Zappos carry the wider width. He loves them and says they are so comfortable and fit his foot well. The shipping is wonderful because we get them in a couple of days and shipping is free. What a bonus! Thanks Zappos!

I have had several pair of NB motion control shoes. I went to Zappos.com and was able to get a comprehensive review by customers before purchase. This service allowed me to select the shoes I needed for proper size, width and arch support.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance is best shoe for me

First of all buying through Zappos is all I do because they are so efficient and easy to order from. I buy the MC806 model New Balance because of foot issues and need the support. I walk two miles per day in them as well as wear them for casual. They are the best comfort. They are supportive and stable!

After years of wearing a size 10D, I went with a 101/2N. No need for return,the shoes arrived quickly and have great support, comfort, great foot stability. No side slipping.

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.

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.

Its hard to find wide pickleball shoes in stock. These fit well, true to size. They didnt give too much uncomfortableness on intial wear and break in. They look fine although they're nothing exciting.

It was just a bit too narrow. Since they were fake leather, I knew they would not stretch or "break in".
I returned them.

Disappointing to hear that NB will not be restocking 806 tennis shoes. They alone provide both extra width and a roomy toe box.

I have used the reliable NB 806 for tennis over many years.
I need the 4E width so was unable to purchase this particular shoe in-store.
The 9 1/2 4E was a tad too big so I ordered the 9 4E on-line right from the store.
I use an gel-insole I buy separately for tennis because of sore feet.
I was informed about the delivery process on-line and the shoes arrived on time at my front door.
Somehow the 9 4E was about half a size too large. I inserted the insoles and tried out the shoe anyway.
It was a stable shoe with good support and a solid feel on the indoor surface.
I used the shoes a couple times to see if I could wear them for tennis but unfortunately they just didn't feel right.
I now have an excellent pair of just slightly too big every day runners and emergency tennis shoes in a pinch.
My bad. Always try 'em on first. I went back to my old shoes.

Only bought these cause it has the rollbar in them. Since the styles changed. It's hard to find them now. They keep the sneaker's steadier.
Hopefully, they put them back into more sneakers. Like they used to have

I have had several pairs of this shoe, the wide model is appreciated. Generally the shoe wears very well, but the tread wears much earlier than the shoe upper. Good value shoe with stability.
