Customer Reviews New Balance 806 Tennis Shoes

The shoes I bought three times, the WC1006v1, were not available, so I got the tennis shoes because they were available in my size. I liek to buy narrow tennis shoes. They are hard as a rock. I will have to find something else.

An oddly-shaped shoe that looked a lot different than advertised.

I love NB. I ordered my size and width. These run small. Shoe is very hard. Not soft in any way. I put my foot in it and even if it did fit I would return them. Felt like a clog :(

Clunky, heavy and uncomfortable. I tried wearing them 3 times and hurt after. Disappointed in this purchase.

Very stiff and uncomfortable overall

It was shorter than normal and wider than a narrow foot of mine can be comfortable in.

Never found out if fit was good , because i returned them as soon as i received them. They looked used , the bottom heel was worn down . Sent them back.

No cushion

I've never written a review about a shoe. But this one is so bad - here I am logging into Zappos to warn others. The shoe feels like you are walking on cement. The tongue sticks out because the laces end to soon. It's just a terrible tennis shoe and I'm probably going to buy new ones because I tried to break them in - but they aren't getting any better. Waste of money.

The shoe felt like it was extra wide. The leather was stiff.

Shipped the wrong size. I wanted medium and you shipped me wide

Had to return them. Too small toe box narrow. Would need a half size larger. Decided to by another brand Brooks.

Very dissatisfied that New Balance has decided to make their extra wide shoes following a regular width last. Size inconsistency is a major reason for ditching a brand.

Had to return these. They were WAY TOO NARROW. Can't imagine that anyone would have a foot that narrow. I'm waiting for the B width to come back in stock, and am hoping that they will work. I've worn these shoes for tennis for years and have been very satisfied. Crossed fingers that the B width hasn't been made too narrow too. I couldn't evaluate the "OverAll", the "Comfort" or the "Style" because I couldn't get the shoe on my foot.

Redesign of the toe box: narrower/more pointed toe, as well as shallower box over arch, when compared with same exact model and size that I will have to continue to wear. Bad news for me since I have relied on New Balance to provide a good fit for those with slightly wider feet.

Very narrow toe box
