Customer Reviews New Balance MW813

Normally wear a 7.5 but needed an 8 in these. On the feet and then off in a short time, found them uncomfortable from the first step to the last. Too much of a drop (rock), too stiff.

I have worn your MW577/4 E size 16 BLACK walking shoe with hook and strap for many years and wanted a shoe in brown and ordered mw813/4E brown shoe. I find the width of this shoe is much wider and uncomfortably so. What do you suggest i do?

I wear NB 8xx velcro walking shoes with my ankle-foot orthotics (AFOs). No problem with 811s; have had these for over 3 years and they are finally deteriorating. The replacement 813 is a completely different shoe. While it looks like it is roomy, with a large toe box, they hurt my feet in several places and are unsatisfactory. I had to go up 1 size and 1 width just to make them semi-work and they still hurt. I wish NB would go back to the 811 last.

I'm on my feet 8+ hours and my heels hurt so bad that i had to purchase a pair of doctor Scholl gel foot insole. I spent a lot of money for these shoes to not give the comfort they promised.

Overall is OK. But the weakest thing is the sole (grey on white boots). Wearing every day from June till December 2016 and having 3 miles per day removes sole along the edges at rear part. Manner of walking and asphalt kills the sole. I had to glued additional new sole by shoemaker.

I have many NB shoes. I like them a lot. But NB is constantly deleting #'s. So 1 cant just buy the same shoe again. Oldie but goodys. I was trying to get the "ride" of my 621's ( which I bought, hoping to get the ride , of my old 608's) . Nope the ride of the 813's which cost more is harder than my great 621's. Sorry. I even put in additional padding inserts , it helped a little.

The shoe does not fit very well since the Varco trips are way too long and almost hit the ground. In addition, the tong is too narrow so that when you get you foot in it the tong is above the body of the sneaker. The result of these issues the shoe does not fit well and is uncomfortable when I walk on my walker. I will probably throw them away and try another brand.

Very hard to walk in. No padding. Most uncomfortable shoe I've ever had. A total waste of my money.

Are you shoes are beautiful they are very comfortable. The only issue I had was that there was a crease from one end of the shoe to the other on the top left foot. The other one was making an indent, so I returned them.

I am going to return the sneakers don't feel good on my feet

I own a pair of 624s and 577s . I have had both pair for over 2 years and wear one pair every day . Love them . the 813 has an interior seam half way to the toe running vertically. It rubs badly.

If you need a very stable walking shoe to deal with an old injury, this is not the shoe for you. I've been buying the 928v3 for years owing to a broken foot and ankle instability. Sadly, the supply chain for 928s has been broken for 2 years. The 813 is not a good substitute, but the 608 is. update - just today I was told my Brown 928v3 order, 4 months old now, is finally coming thru.

Very uncomfortable shoes. I bought these for my dad but he cannot wear them even for one hour. The base is very hard and the shoes are unnecessarily heavy.

The shoes squeak so bad can't wear them. Other than that they are ok..

4E is less wide than earlier 4E. My guess is that New Balance has many subcontractors, and each one has their own size for 4E.

i have been a new balance customer for over 25 years always loved the shoes i just bought the last pair on line and not at the warehouse what a disaster the worst quality i have ever seen when i think of quality

First let me say that I have had many pairs of new balance running shoes and absolutely loved them and I'm running a pair at present as well. So when I was looking for a plain black walking shoe of course I ordered online with new balance. However this walking shoe did not match my running shoe positive experiences. The shoes are stiff and heavy and actual work to walk in. I was actually very surprised that sibling like this would have passed their inspections and performance testing with people. I recommend new balance enthusiastically most of the time but this particular shoe should be avoided.
