I'm having Hip Replacement Surgery in a few weeks and these shoes will greatly assist my recovery while in PT

I was looking for a shoe that I could wear with dress pants. I like the looks of the shoes and the fit. I cannot testify about the wear.

I'm a US Mailman and as you know all we do is walk. The shoes strings definitely keep coming loose, but I double knot them. It does run big, but I've learned to buy them a half size smaller. My heel does kill me, but an insole with heel support works just fine. A little tip: I don't buy insoles with gel because they melt. The massaging dots do just fine.

These are great for minimal tasks, but not comfortable for all day use. Tasks that include lounging all day, but you need to go throw the trash. Tasks that include slipping these bad boys on to walk to the corner store for a pack of Natty's. Tasks that include questioning the work ethic of millennials(I am one). Tasks that include grabbing the daily to check the weather forecast.

The fit and size were good but the sole around the front part of the foot that carries your weight was too hard. I am going to try and find an inner sole to soften it.

Casual shoe for daily activities.
Prior to wearing this new pair, I was having a tendonitis issue in my right thigh. Since wearing and alternating to this pair, no pain!

I need size 14 but narrow width. 14 D is too wide. Is there a narrower width available? I added additional inner soles and the shoes work for me.

I use it for my everyday shoe. I enjoy the comfort of the Velcro model and find it much more comfortable than the lace model. I have been wearing them for the last 15 years. I have not been as pleased with the durability of the last couple of pairs, but will give them a couple of more tries. The soles do not seem to last as long. For the first time I had side of a shoe come apart and the internals between the sole and inside of the shoe fall apart and come out the side.

Seem to be good shoes. I trust new balance that they will last for awhile because I've only wore these a few times.

These shoes are comfortable, durable, and fit like a glove. This is my fourth pair but surely not my last.

Due to the size of the shoe required, we are some what limited to the shoe we can purchase. The ones we bought last year were the best, this month's purchase is as close as we can get to the others. They are a decent shoe.

Just what I ordered and expected. No style, but very practical for walking.

I've been wearing the shoes for about 1 week. They are comfortable but I did not expect the stretchy part of the velcro straps. They stretch too far - the strap extends way too far past the shoe velcro. I have to cut the strap... trim it shorter to be able to tighten the shoe enough.

I'm so glad New Balance makes wide sizes. I normally have to buy shoes that are too long. But these (10.5 4E) fit perfectly. No need for breaking in to be comfortable. To me they aren't great looking, but they're work shoes, so it's not a requirement. Only thing I would different is a stiffer sole.

New Balance MW813
Have lost count of how many pair of this shoe my husband has worn. They are the only shoe that fits his very compromised feet. This shoe has the wide, deep toe box necessary for swollen /injured feet of big guys who are already pushing the edge of "available" sizes. He is sz 16 -6E
Please, New Balance, continue to offer this style...whatever it lacks in style it is comfortable. The only thing I would change is making the tongue a LITTLE thinner at top and wider...to fill the opening for the wearer who needs to use every bit of room in front of this shoe.

This is a great shoe but does not have the added support of a tie show, which brings the heal taught with support.

I have yet to untie the shipping bow as received and lace them up. I don't need to. I originally wore 927's 9.5 4E with extra wide toe box (lath). They were slightly small in width so when they fell apart I ordered the 813 9.5 6E. They were also too small. They need to be 1 or 2 sizes wider to fit. The 9.5 size is the largest size I can go and not have my foot slide enough to cause blisters. Right now I am hoping to stretch them to fit. I also found the insole to be too hard, Give them a little more softness.

I have been buying NB shoes for over 30 years. The MW810>813 model has been one of my mainstays. I have worn size 2A width for as long as I have worn New Balance shoes. At present I wear men's size 14-2A and there are only 2 models left in that width and unfortunately the MW813 is not one of them. The MW813 in a B width works if one uses an insole and tightens up the laces. Bring back the 2A width in more shoe models!
