I purchased the NB 813 since the NB 812 was no longer available. The difference, to me, was the 812 was produced in USA. I do not like the 813, it does not have the same feeling as the 812. I am still wearing the 812 over the 813. It is a different shoe.

I have always preferred NB to other brands, but the 813 with the loop & Velcro straps are not as form fitting or as comfortable. Both pair cause pain in the small toe of my right foot, whereas my laced NB shoes do not.

They were good at first but the soles are stiff. Don't seem the same as they used to be

I had read some reviews that said that the 813s were a low cost replacement for the 928v3 model.
Well, not even close. I wish they'd continue the 928 line. Pricey, but exceptional quality

Arrived with a velcro strap that was folded back over the shoe. Although I attempted to straighten the strap, it remains curled up, which is extremely unsightly. I am very unhappy with the lack of quality control prior to boxing up the shoes.

I have owned New Balance shoes for decades, most notably every incarnation of the 990 running shoe and some others. These days I mainly use the shoes for walking. I was excited to get New Balance walking shoes to wear everyday with jeans. When I tried these on, I had difficulty getting the right shoe to feel comfortable. I finally noticed that the tongue on the right shoe was sewn in such a way that it curled even with extra effort trying to prevent it. The left shoe did not have this defect. So, I returned the shoe without ever wearing it.

I am a 2 wide and these newbalance are a little too wide from ,the other new balance 928v3. I love the 928v3 they are perfect I have been buying them every year since they made them ,I use them for work,but the new balance 813 not that great but the best part of the 813 nb. Is the shoes laces , they should put better shoes laces on the 928v3 cause the stink , they don't stay tied , and a lot of people are saying the same , stop being cheap new balance I will pay 50 cents more for better laces the new balance 823 not that comfortable on a scal 1-5 I score them a 2 1/2amd that's because the laces are high quality great laces that stay laced all day, again put those laces on the 928v NB.

The toe box of this shoe fits my square feet perfectly. The problem is the 13 mm drop is a deal breaker. My heel felt like it was coming out of the back of the shoe. The instep is too low as well. I wear orthotics and the top of my feet near the ankle hurt after wearing these. If they had more depth they would be perfect.

My husband has been wearing these shoes for over 10 years. I bought him a new pair and the sides of the soles are tinted lavender. I returned them and purchased another just to find out the new pair is the same!

a few things wrong...
the sole is not white like the leather, it has a blue tint to it.. not shown in images.
they kinda look like clown shoe , minus the red. i can probably get over that since they are wide
but the most bothersome is that when i walk i hear a thump in the left shoe when i step. like there is something in the sole or a air bubble that pops
.. it is annoying. this is the first day that i have worn them... and it started right away
i went with NB 800 series because i was told they are great for walking.. im not gonna walk too much if this thump keeps up

This 4EE was bought because the regular size 2EE I have bought for many years was too narrow. However, 4EE is way to wide and uncomfortable. I am returning the 4EE and keeping the 2EE shoes I also bought to start with. I am going to live with the tight shoe until the New Balance 928 11.5 2EE become available. It's a bummer that the 813 shoes are not as comfortable as the 928's

I have had more than one pair of these and the glue fails, the upper separates or the tread comes off. They are a trip hazard when this happens.

little disappointed in arch support. Not what I am use to from a New Balance shoe. Added an insole and worked well. Shoe appearance looked like an orthopedic shoe. Get what you pay for. I learned.
I'd also recommend:
Will stick with NB

I have a hard time finding shoes to fit my very wide, arthritic feet. These were not wide enough for me, but are probably fine for regular wide width foot.

The quality of New Balance continues to decline. If I could find another shoe cmanufacturer that makes a narrow shoe, I would stop buying NB shoes.

I've worn these for a couple of weeks, and they still make noise with every step. They ae not as comfortable as the 577 (which, unfortunately, were not available in my size).

Feels like it's made with cheap materials, I don't see them lasting very long. Way ever priced.
