Customer Reviews New Balance WX867

This is a fantastic shoe! I am very happy with this one. I do high impact dance aerobics and I tried a lot of shoes to find one to help with shin splints. These delivered. I would say that the Ryka Rhythmic+ has great shock protection but no arch support which aggravates my shin splints. These have a little less shock protection but more arch support and I have no more issues. I have low but not flat arches. The pivot point is awesome! It's a must have for dance. I am a 7.5 size and they were a tad too small. The 8s though are very roomy. Big difference in the sizes. You may want to order 2 sizes and return the one that doesn't fit. I love these!

Great shoes! Ordered my normal size and they fit great. Use them for strength training, agility ladder drills and some speed drills. I also get a lot of comments on them. People think they look really nice.

Great shoe for Zumba or dance aerobics - flexible enough to dance in but also very comfortable and supportive. Very happy with this shoe overall!

I bought these for zumba and they are great. Lightweight, if you need support these are not for you.

I use these shoes for walking outdoors. The arch support is just what I was looking for. They don't have the best traction on wet/slick surfaces. I would have bought a second pair if there were more colors to choose from.

I am very pleased with my purchase. This shoe fits true to size, which rarely happens for me. For my 7.5 size feet, I have shoes ranging from size 7 to 8. The 7.5 in this shoe fits perfectly. I bought these sneakers for Zumba. They are very comfortable, light and provide arch support. Would highly recommend them. The shopping experience with Zappos was great as usual!

I love these shoes! I needed new cross-trainers for my cardio work outs and chose these because I'm a longtime fan of NB and these are adorable. They are super comfy, stylish, and true to size. I especially like that the tongue is attached at one side, so it doesn't go sliding around all over the place when I work out. I even wear them out and about! They are really that cute.

I bought these for my girlfriend who is a Zumba Instructor, she loves them and her whole class will buying a pair soon. Highly impressed with Zappos speedy delivery during Christmas week. You guys rock!

Love it! Have been teaching Zumba for almost 3 years and (after several trials of various shoes) had been faithful to my Bloch Boosts for a long time. As a New Balance user for all of my other athletic shoes, I gave these a try after a fellow instructor recommended them. Regular, street shoe sizing (no funny sizing like with Bloch, Ryka, etc) and good cushioning. Going to be ordering some more!

I love these shoes - they are great for Zumba or the treadmill or just wearing around. I am a size 6.5 in all closed toes shoes - and have never bought a wide before. These shoes are very narrow and in order to get appropriate support on my arch. I also had to get a size 7.

These sneakers were great. I used Capezios in the past but these and these have more structure to them . The Capezios sometimes were too slippery when stretching, there are perfect. The Zappos staff was exceptional. There was an issue with damaged sneakers and they were amazing on the replacements of my new pair. I ordered a half size larger and they fit great!

This shoe is working out very nicely for my dance workout classes. It makes me feel light on my feet, and I'm so glad it comes in a D width. Haven't had any trouble with "my aching bunions" after a vigorous class.

I bought these shoes for a kickboxing class...and I love them! Great arch support combined with the pivot circles really make these shoes excellent for any cross training activity. Not to mention super light!

These are working out great for me in my jazz class. I had to give up on my Bloch jazz shoes because they weren't comfortable for me. The pivot point is great for turning. It has a removable insole and I often replace insoles with SuperFeet insoles but didn't need to in these. I have a high arch & have had cheilectomies on both feet.

I purchased these for Zumba as I am an instructor. I love them! They are lightweight and have the support I need. A couple of ladies that take my class wear these and love them as well. Very comfortable right out of the box. I did go up 1/2 a size. I normally wear a 10 and I had to send those back for a 10 1/2. Perfect fit!

I ordered a half size larger after reading other reviews and glad I did. The fit seems right. I bought these for Zumba. It does have arch support, but it seems like it needs better cushion in the front area. I'm finding the front balls of my feet hurting during class. Nice looking shoe though.

I needed a shoe for Zumba classes and went to a local store specializing in workout shoes. They did not have anything with a perfectly smooth bottom so I ended up buying something that was not perfect. Then I found these on-line and decided to give them a try. They are PERFECT for Zumba! Although they are not quite as well made as a pricey shoe, they are just the ticket for Zumba so I say try these first. (I ended up taking the others back.)

I have worn NB's forever. I have a wider toe box and high arches for my 6.5 shoe size. When I was looking for a better shoe to take Zumba classes in. I saw these. They are very comfy. I can spin jump kick squat - you name it - with these shoes. When I land on my heel there's a noticeable difference in the shock absorbance from my previous pair. I've made it through Several Zumbathons, master classes, and my instructor class in these. Bonus: They look really cool during Zumba glow parties.

I am shocked no one mentioned that these shoes are WAY WAY WAY cuter in person! The 'orange' look in the picture is actually a bright pink/coral. I needed shoes for TurboFire which is a high intensity cardio workout. This shoes are great and exactly what I was looking for. My only complaint is the same as the other reviews. They're tight across the arch of your foot. I even ordered the wide. It only bothers me when I first put the shoes on though and I'm fine through my work out. I definitely recommend these shoes!

Love the look of these babies. I have wide feet so they are slightly narrow for me. But only slightly.

Was hopeful about this dance sneaker for zumba. The wide width works at the base of the shoe for me but the tongue, connected on one side of the shoe, wasn't big enough to cover the opening under the laces.

I ordered these shoes for step and zumba classes. I needed to go a full size larger. My regular size made my second toe go numb and it still is a month later! They are very comfortable and supportive. It is easy to turn on the ball of the foot. The tongue is attached to one side of the shoe and wraps around your foot, tucking into the shoe which is kind of weird but neat.

Like others who wrote reviews, I found that this shoe ran very small. I ordered a 9.5 because I typically wear a 9. I ended up sending the 9.5 back for a 10. I kept the 10 but probably would find the 10.5 or 11 more comfortable! I teach a general conditioning class that involves a lot of pivoting, jogging, stair climbing, and plyometrics, and find these shoes suitable for teaching that class.

This is the first shoe I've found for Zumba that really fits my size 10W foot. It runs short -- I bought a size 11. At that length, the Wide was pretty true to width. It's light and has a great cushiony insole, but even with the insole removed for my orthotics, the sole is substantial enough to make a Zumba class comfortable. The pivot point is nice and wide and makes turns really easy. I'm not crazy about the look of the shoe (it's kind of boxy), but I'm so delighted to finally find a comfortable, good-fitting Zumba shoe that I don't really care how it looks!

I bought these shoes and used them a little more than 10 minutes before I realized they are not the shoes I wanted. I do the Shaun T DVDs, mostly Focus T-25, but sometimes Insanity. I need sturdy, supportive shoes for these DVDs. I am in my mid-40s and in fairly good shape, but a little heavy largely from muscle weight. These DVDs are the cross training to my first sport taekwondo. So, I walked the dog for a mile, not too quickly due to a fair amount of sniffing, then changed into these shoes from my walking shoes when we got back. I put the DVD in and started. Ten minutes into the video and my bunion hurt. It doesn't hurt often, but these brand new shoes could not handle T-25 for the very first day. Reviews on other websites say these are not cross training shoes, but dance shoes. They love them for Zumba and other things. I have to agree. They are not sturdy or supportive enough and I am on Zappos right now looking for a good pair of cross training shoes. I am so disappointed in the labeling of these shoes. They are cute enough and comfortable enough when walking around and maybe for Zumba or other dance, but I don't do that. I needed good cross trainers and these are not the ones.
