Customer Reviews New Balance 806 Tennis Shoes

I buy these shoes each year. I play tennis and have a wide foot and these are very comfortable for me.

I always order online from New Balance for the womens 806 as they have the best price. Love the fit, great on the court. Wish they'd go on sale at some point. Delivery is fast..I'm a life time customer.

I've worn these - womens 8.5 WW - for 10 years or more. In recent years I find the sole of the shoes peeling off. Bought a pair for my brother - which he just wears for walking the dogs - and his are peeling apart too. Just ordered a new pair and they are noticeably narrower. Tried to wear them once and hobbled back to my car after one tennis game to put my old peeling apart shoes on. I don't know what's going on with these, but the quality that was there 10 years ago just isn't there anymore. With a double E width my choices are limited. I was happy to just buy these the rest of my life. I think I need to shop around. I hate that. When it comes to my aching (Morton's Neuroma and other things), wide, "flipper-feet" I just want the tried and true. I hope they raise their quality back to where they were

Love these shoes for pickleball! Due to several foot surgeries I have a wide foot. In addition I have PF these shoes are the only ones I have found I can wear without any issues. Just wish you offered more styles/color in an extra wide. For those that say they are too smalljust order a size up.

I use these shoes to play competitive tennis. I run everything down so they take a beating. I buy these shoes because they are available in a narrow width and my feet do not slide around resulting in blisters. It would be nice if these shoes came in colors other than black and white, but you can't always get want you want.

I wear this style sneaker for tennis 4x week. I've had 5 pairs in the last 5-6 years. Love the look & usually when worn in they're very comfortable.I'm btw an 8 & 8.5. Bought an 8 cause they stretch. I played in USTA Sectionals this weekend & wore them for the first time on a hard court. In two hours of play I had a huge painful blister underneath a small bunion, a middle toe was sore on top from jamming into the shoe & I had to take them off. Not sure if the materials used are cheaper or this pair was a bit off, but my left foot is hurt, not forever, but

I have had several foot surgeries and need lots of support for my ongoing foot issues. I so wanted to learn pickleball but wasn't sure I would be able to. I went to a the Footworks store (where they make my custom orthotics and they recommended this shoe. (I have fairly narrow feet but due to orthotics needed a wide width) I've never felt such support under my feet! Now I can do the things I want to do again! Thanks, New Balance!

I deal with rigid toes and pump hump (laymen terms) with tight Achilles tendons. I order up one size to fit an orthotic. Stretching and these shoes make Pickleball possible. I've lost count of how many I've purchased over the years. They last about 4 months for me at 15 hrs a week playing time. No break in period.

Love them. Exactly what I was looking for. No more slipping on the courts.
