I am a very large man and have a hard time finding shoes that fit, these are pretty good for the price. I am diabetic and have found that New Balance shoes are about the best for diebetics unless you have custom shoes made, I can not afford that. I go through shoes pretty quick because of my weight [400lbs] so these are affordable enough I can buy a new pair as I blow them out.

This is the second time I've bought shoes from Zappos and once again I am pleasantly surprised at the speed of delivery...literally within the next two days. I didn't go to the Post Office on the second day because I did not think they would be there. But they were.
They fit perfectly. They feel great on my feet. And they can be polished, which to me is a bonus.
I enjoy this type of fast service with a quality product.

Wish the 847 came in all leather ,and brown also. For me the 813 is better than 928 and 1300

Over all comfort and fit is great.
New Balance has the wide sizes
which is a plus.
However the pair started slit at the sole on one shoe after 5 months. I admit I wear them all the time.Zappo's exchanged them for a new pair of the same model.
All I can say GREAT customer service.

This shoe is comfortable, though I have high arches and would prefer more arch support. This shoe is not breathable, however. My feet get warm easily, which makes the rest of me warm. I tried this shoe on for an hour at work and knew right away I had to return it. Too hot.

Coming up on a year of ownership helped ok for a while but I put a lot of miles on shoes and these are tearing apart on each side of my
foot. Still more comfortable then any other shoe i've had. But might look elsewhere because the prices is a little high.

These are comfortable shoes and they wear well. We used to buy the tan color as they went well with shorts and pants. See they have tan in women's, what happened to tan in men's. Still like the shoe, disappointed with the colors.

boxier than the 812 and higher volume, accentuates the size of my big feet.

A good set of shoes for someone with plain tastes like myself. The tongue is - as I think another reviewer mentioned - rather narrow, not being wide enough to tuck under the side of the shoe when worn. It instead sticks right up, which likely contributes to a bit of looseness.

I purchased these as a gift for my brother who does a lot of walking. They fit great which is a statement in itself as my brother has a small narrow foot and finding shoes that fit well can be a challenge.

It is a nice practical shoe. Nothing fancy but it fits my needs with a wide foot.

I really wanted a new pair of NB 928 walking shoes (I've had three pairs), but after all of the reviews warning that the 928 had been redesigned -- for some reason NB fixed something that wasn't broken -- and now was running tight and uncomfortable, I settled on NB 813. The 813 is not as good-looking as the 928 but is not bad looking either and fits well and is comfortable. I would recommend this shoe to anyone who doesn't want to chance the 928.

I haven't had these shoes a year and they appear to be disintegrating just above the sole. The sole is peeling off.

Really comfortable shoes. As soon as I stood up I was sure I was keeping them. I also thought they looked pretty good. However, my wife said they look like nurses shoes. Other reviewers have also been critical of the style of these shoes. After taking some time, I came around and agreed with them. These aren't stylish enough to wear as casual shoes. Had to return. Great shoes for a professional setting where style isn't as much of a concern.

These are an excellent fit and very comfortable. It's a shame the nicer range of colors don't come in this size, but I suppose there's also something appealing about the bright white sneaker!

Same shoe as my brown laced 813s except for the Velcro and the color. I bought the gray because white gets dirty looking so quickly and is hard to keep looking new. The gray was a compromise, but the color is growing on me and I'm getting used to the "old man" looks of the Velcro. I must say that the Velcro is more convenient than laces; you can quickly adjust the fit without the fuss of evening up laces. Because of my weight and bad knees, I only buy NB models that feature Rollbar. The lateral support is much better than other brands, and they don't break down as quickly as other shoes I've owned.

I have a wide foot and New Balance keeps changing their products. So, off I go again to find a shoe that fits. This can be a test of nerves. This time I started with the 928V2, a new version of the 928s I have. The new 928V2s are now running narrow, to say the least. I was directed to two other models and I picked the 813. What a nice shoe, true to size and fits great. I use the shoes for everyday walking, shopping and love the white laced ones I purchased. I will buy these again.

Been using these shoes for my son since they were 811.. Like the construction and support.also the fact that they are universally white with no other added color accents...really prefer the original soles with the light blue strip down the center but I suppose the new design is intended to be better!

I had a problem with the last pair I purchased when the sole separated from the bottom of the shoe on both shoes. I had never had that problem before. I am hoping that the most resent pair I purchased performs better.

Shoes are comfortable. However, the straps could be about 1/2 shorter as they tend to snag pants leg at the bottom and it looks geeky.

These are good but not great. They look cheaper in person than on screen. I have difficulty finding wide shoes that are comfortable and supportive. These shoes are wide and comfortable. But not altogether supportive and my feet tire.
