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.
I'd also recommend:
Asics, Keen

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!

A little different fit than the NB running or training styles. Still getting used to them, but good fit overall. As always, NB 4E xtra wide feels good from the get-go.

Other brands with 4E that I've liked are Nike and Asics

I bought this shoe (model 813) based on it having the type of sole that I wanted (non- or modified- lug), the rollbar stability, a boxier toe area, the overall look, and a middle price.(I figured I could add water resistance myself.) I returned the shoes, though, for one simple reason: my heel slid up & down in the heel cup of the shoe (which would have led to blisters and bunched-up socks). The forward angle of the heel cup is visibly less than in other of my New Balance shoes, which no doubt resulted my problem. I have no idea whether anyone else's foot will do the same, so its nearly impossible to rate the shoe in any meaningful way using the star method.

I have a narrow foot so New Balance is one of the few shoe companies that make shoes that fit me. The shoe is plain but reasonably comfortable. I could use a little more arch support but I do have high arches. NB is consistent in there size and width. I don't know how their more expensive models could be any better.

Great walking shoe. It's light weight and comfortable. Only con is that they don't breathe very well, due to lack of vents and materials used.

I do like the quick closure shoes. Put your shoes on, pull the strap and you are on your way. They do stay in place. I exercise daily very hard and they do NOT come loose. Very happy

Nice shoe for larger guy, 280# 6'2". A tad high in the toe box, but ability to put inserts in was a plus. You're not going to win a 'good look' award, but my feet are not as tired at the end of the day.

Fit was true to size. Width was 4x, and I could have gone up one more. Overall, a substantial shoe for kitchen work. Not as non slip as I would have liked, but comfortable none the less. Only downside was the insoles, which were not very thick. Break in time was normal. I would buy again in wider size.
