Customer Reviews New Balance 806 Tennis Shoes

Toe box was not deep enough.

This shoe did not fit the normal fit proportions that I am used to with New Balance shoes, which I have bought for many, many years now. The toe box was very narrow, running narrow through to the top of the foot above the arch. Very cute shoe, I might think about seeing if it comes in a wider size.

I love this shoe for tennis but was sent the wrong size ( first time in many years) so my orthotic did not fit. Ordered EE and was sent a D width.

I have always worn NB. This is the 2nd pair i have tried since Christmas that were too tight in the toe box. I like the leather for tennis, but my most comfortable pairs seem to be walking sneakers wirh mesh. Zappos are awesome as always.

Hard to find good tennis sneakers. I really like these tennis sneakers so far. Have only been wearing them for 2 weeks. They have a big toe box, and are are very comfortable. Hopefully they will wear better than the last ones I tried. I'm usually a 6 1/2, but order a size up as I wear orthotics, so hard to tell if they'd be true to size without. I've already recommended them to a few friends.

Narrow in toe area

Only have worn once but fits comfortably and snug.

I bought these shoes because I have a bunion and need the extra width to be comfortable. From that standpoint, they're great. My only complaint is my first pair only lasted a couple of months before the tread was worn down significantly. I do play about 5 days/wk on average, but these are expensive shoes to be wearing down so quickly. I now where custom orthotics. Bought these shoes again to see if that makes a difference in the wear.

I wear, and always order, a wide shoe , when available, but this shoe felt like a B (med.) width rather than a wide width. The size was great; just the width was incorrect.

Perfect for Pickleball. The shoe gave enough support for the side to side movement needed for the game. I have a wide foot and this shoe gave plenty of room in the toe box ( I did order a wide width).

These are a really nice looking shoe and I was looking for a little more cush. They also ran a tad short once I put my orthotic in. My feet are narrow and I really need a narrow shoe but they are really difficult to find. So, unfortunately, I need to return them.

I usually wear a regular width but ordered wide for this shoe. I probably would be ok with regular as I am probably on the cusp. If you have really narrow feet though I heard from a friend that she prefers Asics for that reason. I feel more support from this New Balance sneaker over the foot... and less slippage at the ankle than the Asics and Adidas sneakers I tried . Comfort a real plus here for me .

Easy “break in” period so pretty happy with them, so far.

I need a shoe with a wide width. I tried three different tennis shoes and this one did the trick. I find them comfortable and accommodate my wide foot issues. Very happy with the purchase.

I ordered a WIDE and my bunions are happy! The provided sole/bottom is not cushy, but I need to use a sole insert that has arch support so I replaced the insole completely. Overall, the shoe fits well, feels durable and is comfortable to play tennis in.

I HAVE SAME SHOE IN 12 N BUT LATELY AFTER 4 OR MOR MONTH OF WEAR TOES HURT. I LIKE THE STYLE SO I ORDERED 12 M THAT FEEL JUST AD TIGHT IN TOES. I AM RETURNING THEM. I NEED SHOES WITH MOTION CONTROL WHICH ARENT VERY STYLISH MOST OF TIME. CB

These are ok tennis shoes. They are not the most comfortable and feel kind of clunky. They do accommodate my orthotic and have a neutral foot bed. They are made of leather and feel more stiff than I would like.

I need a lot of toe room and since I have a narrow foot, I need a half size larger but a narrow width so the size 10 Narrow works here. Not the most stylish shoe but the only true tennis shoe that works for me on the court.

Tight, run narrow and heel stiff. Good for Tennis not for everyday,
