I ordered a size 11-double EE, and according to the box, and the tab in the sneaker, that's what I got. Their idea of double EE and everyone else's is markedly different. I was forced to completely unlace the sneaker to put it on, and it took two full weeks of wearing it, to get to where it wasn't uncomfortable. I took the sneakers to a custom maker of athletic shoes, and after examining them, he felt they were actually a D width.

They didn't fit and I sent them back. I wear 4e in several other pairs of New Balance but these didn't fit.

This is definitely not a 4E wide shoe. It is wide but not the 4E as advertised. Very disappointed

This shoe is supposed to be very soft soled and comfortable but it is a very stiff and hard sole shoe. It felt like it was made of a brick it was so stiff and hard on the balls of my feet. May be a great Tennis shoe for some pros but for the average player it was too uncomfortable to wear.

Bought these tennis shoes at local New Balance store, the complete sole came unglued, good thing I did not trip, Used 11 months on Har Tru. Store or New Balance company would not stand by their product. Bad,Bad!

this is my preferred shoe. I ordered in my normal size. it way too narrow. I could not even tolerate it. I am very disappointed. I cannot seem to find a clay court shoe to fit..

Outsole started to come unglued within weeks of wearing. Used Shoe Goo to put together. After several months the outsole is starting wear. Online retailer indicates I must ship back. Not worth the cost. DO NOT BUY THESE Shoes

I take a 9 1/2 shoe, but currently have an older size 10 New Balance sneaker (EE width) which fits fine; a little on the large size, but it's very comfortable. This new sneaker is the same marked size, which I was buying to replace the old one, however it is much smaller than my current one. I will need to exchange it for a size 11!!!

My tennis shoes were shoddy. Stitching near top eyelet was coming apart. There was a cut on rear left shoe. These shoes were a replacement for shoes which had worn out after 5mos. with very limited wear. The replacement shoes did not appear to be first quality.

I've had this model in the past. In fact I am wearing it now. Ordered another pair. Same size as I have. New shoes too narrow. Ordered half size larger - too narrow. Obviously they are making this model narrower. The width, 4e.

I do not recommend these shoes. My husband on a whim bought these shoes. He normally buys K-Swiss and has never had a problem. These shoes wore down in a month's time causing him to fall twice. Zappos is great and took them back but if you are a serious hard court tennis player you will not be pleased with these shoes!
