Customer Reviews New Balance MW813

walking to town and for excercise around the block

Bought this pair of sneakers on NB site but found them later on another site for $20 less!!! Will keep these since they are a great sneaker and not worth the trouble of returning and purchasing again from other site. Your shipping charges seem to be a little high also.

Walking mostly. I have purchased the 813 over the years and still like it.

My 90 year old father loves them and loves not having to tie them.

I have worn NB for years and plan to for years to come. The website is easy to use and the there is no question of the quality NB puts into their shoes. Just keep up what you are doing.

I bought this pair for my Father on Father's Day, and he absolutely loves them. Diidn't take them off all day.

Well-made, comfortable, and available in size 14 narrow.

at least 10 pairs so far not just 813 but all hook and loop. small detail but the hook strap is a little too long when cinched down. the cushioning is best of any shoe i have ever tried on.

Everyday use, walking and hiking. Fits good. Feels good. Very well made. As I understand it they are substantially 'Made in USA'. And I believe it's the only athletic sneaker manufacturer that can make that claim. I buy "Made in the USA" wherever and whenever possible.

Being elderly, much easier to put on than shoelace type !!

Wonderful product, have used these shoes for years.

These shoes are super easy to get on for my adult son with special needs. He can work the Velcro by himself and they feel great on his feet.

Nice long velcro straps. Plenty of toe room. Good fit.

for work I walk a lot. I like them. They pass work but are much more comfortable to wear all day I do a lot walking.

As a long-time New Balance wearer, I have had to change to style # 813 due to breathing problems. With a severely compromised respiratory system, bending over to tie lace shoes left me short of breath. With style #813 it is just slip them on, use the velcro straps, and I'm ready to go. This is now the only choice for me in daily footwear.

Use for walking and it fits and feel great and a very good looking shoe

Mom has to wear an ankle brace that makes it impossible to wear a women's shoe, this fits her brace and doesn't look too different from the New Balance women's shoe that she wears on her other foot.

I love theses sneakers with no laces because the laces shed on me, the sneakers with out laces are much easier for me to closes up, & I love them very much

Good fit, comfortable shoes, would purchase again!

Since you cannot change the shoe's basic design (its last), over time you can get the feel of a manufacturer's intent to make the shoe surround the foot. There are two things the customer can decide on. First, where will the shoe be employed - running, walking, etc. Then the size must be determined so the foot is neither cramped nor flopping in the extra space. Having philosophized above, I need to tell you about my experience and satisfaction. For years I found New Balance sneakers (with laces)to meet my comfort needs. As time marched onward (where else would it go?), hook and loop increased in desirability. I found NB had only one model, so I went through a series of three pairs with reasonable satisfaction. As my foot grew in size and NB came up with the 813, I have now a pair in a suitable size. Very comfortable! If I must complain about something, I will point out that there is a restriction in interior vertical dimension at the line of stitches where the base of the tongue meets the base of my toes. Otherwise the 813 is great!

Was looking for a shoe with Velcro closures for my father. He was having trouble tying his shoes and we are working on keeping him "independent". We were not sure how he would react to these; he absolutely loves them. Easy to get on/off. Velcro stays secure throughout the day I purchased the grey color. Highly recommend.

I use the sneakers for walking and a little running. They are very comfortable.

Everyday use. Casual/dress for special occasions and meetings. About anything you want to use it for!!!!

My whole family live in their NB shoes. This particular one is purchased over and over by myself and sons. We wear them daily as our everyday shoe and go thru them quickly!!! They are great for walking, profession/casual look, working, etc.
