Customer Reviews New Balance W1340v2

This shoe gives marvelous support and fits well. What I really dislike is the color. I'd really like it in black. I really don`t like the pink, but it fits and supports my flat pronating feet better than any other shoe.

My feet are WW and I've also had surgery on 3 toes on one foot several years ago. Since then it has been very difficult to find shoes that are comfortable for any length of time. This shoe is as comfortable as I have found in any type of shoe and also fits well.

I love the looks of these shoes, but they did not fit me right. I should have ordered a half size larger than my normal shoe size. Also, this shoe is very heavy and made my feet tired after a couple of hours wear. I should have returned them, but did not. For some reason I kept thinking they would start feeling better on my feet. So I will probably give them to a charity. They are very well made shoes.

These shoes felt great, excellent support for a person who overpronates. However, the sole at the end of the shoes is much, much thinner than the rest of the shoe. I am really disappointed that I have to send them back since they are super cute and feel great through the arch.

I bought these for my college student. She loved them for support and comfort until the sole separated from the shoe today after only 4 month of wear. I know zappos will make this right.

I wanted these to work for me as I've tried so many different shoes and even paying considerably more for them I still have the problem of my toes going numb. Only shoe that has worked are the Avia rockers and they are no longer available. I'm at a loss !

I bought this shoe as a replacement for my beloved New Balance 1012 motion control shoes. I tested this on the treadmill and developed knee pain within 2 minutes. I run each day in the 1012 and have no knee issues. In addition, this shoe is narrower than the 1012.

Nope. I tried NB years ago and couldn’t find a style to fit well, but I thought I’d try again with this shoe. It’s a no-go. I ordered a size 6M, my regular size, and with a thin compression sock the shoe was way too small, at least a whole size. My big toe touched the top/side corner of the toe box, the shoe squeezed my little toe, laced loosely it was entirely too snug all around my foot. Almost seems like this shoe rounds my foot inward in an awkward and uncomfortable fashion. Can’t tell there much arch support, but that could be because the rest of the shoe fits so badly. Don’t see the point in trying a larger size. I’d have to order at least a full size to two sizes up, or maybe a wide, and that’s just silly for my tiny, thin feet. The tongue and collar of this shoe are very cushiony, and I liked that a lot. But, no. Just no.

These have been an expensive disappointment. I got hooked into NB with two pair of the WW1745 shoe which I wore out. Light weight, firm support, great. These are heavy and have a boggy feel. The tongue works it's way down and bunches up over my toe joint which then hurts. And the laces are too short. Cute color though.

I bought these because the W1260v5 wasn't available at the time. These are terribly uncomfortable. I've never had a problem with New Balance before. They've been my go-to brand for at least 15 years, but this pair hurts my feet! They feel hard on the bottom of my feet, like there's no cushion.

Lightweight breathable shoe, quite comfy, large toe box and cushy, fun design! I really wanna love it and I do - but my feet need more support than these provide. I think this would be an excellent shoe for just loafing around, but for any amount of standing or walking especially on concrete not quite up to par for the severe pronator & flat footed folks. I think the flaw is in the mesh, it's just too giving and shoe lacks the stability provided by a sturdier material encasing the entire shoe. As it is, all your support is dependent on the lacing. Also I notice that my heel sinks, causing my knees to lock. Not a good thing. The arch support is more a cajoling suggesting, than demand that you stand properly. I've got flat feet, pronate badly on the left foot, and spinal stenosis. I live & die by what I stand on so it's gotta be as tough as I am. In comparing these with Saucony Progrid™ Integrity ST 2 the support is quite different. The Saucony imho is a superior shoe.

I've had good luck with New Balance shoes, but not with this pair. The colors were clownish; I'm not a fashion diva but the shiny silver with the neon pink just didn't work for me. Fit was okay but shoe overall had an orthopedic look to it. I'm returning and am going to check out men's New Balance in hopes the colors are less psychedelic!

These shoes are described as being for severe over pronation.They did nothing to control my over pronation. They are huge! Much too wide and long and I ordered the smallest size. I must say they may be the ugliest shoes ever. What's with all the ugly bright pink and purple? I don't want clown shoes. Zappos gets these back.

I purchased these in January 2018, after wearing them about three weeks they started squeeking, kind of like a door opening or a bad joint of some kind. I purchased these because I had a pair of this shoe previously and loved them. I got them to wear to work in a hospital. Now I don't even want to wear them because they are noisy, and I do mean noisy. The only thing I can associate the change to was rain. After wearing to work on a rainy Saturday they started squeeking/creeking. My previous pair never did this.I am so frustrated, shoes that cost as much as these do shouldn't do this.

I'm a size 13 and these seemed a bit too tight. I'm returning them

Shoe is super heavy and inserts are really hard.

I usually LOVE New Balance. This pair, however, was terrible. The sole separated on both pairs within a month and half of owning them. The fronts of the shoes flopped when I walked it was terrible. I wore them like this for a few months only because I spent so much on these, it wasn't in the budget for more shoes. Save yourself some time, and money, DO NOT BUY THESE!

These shoes were great for a few months, but for this price I was expecting them to last a while. The sole has separated from the shoe. It starts at the toes and goes to my arch. Both shoes have this damage. I wish I could upload a photo. I'm so disappointed.

My daughter loves this shoe, however, the black rubber tip on top of the shoe became unglued in 4 days. Sending it back!
