Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)

Poor SupportGreat Support
I've purchased these shoes for an 8 hour standing-on-foot security job and it does get the job done. After a year of abuse, the exterior seems to be rubbing off especially since it's made with leather. Breathability isn't the best on these shoes which for 8 hours makes my feet go through the equivalent of a slip and slide. Since these are made in the USA, the sizing might be true with a lower size. I've purchased a size 14 of these shoes, but they feel larger even though this is normally my shoe size. I would suggest going for a lower size and try them out. You can't go wrong with Zappos return policy.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks, Asics, Dr. Martens

Instantly comfortable, no breaking-in period. Leather is soft but strong. Sizing accurate.

I've bought these shoes multiple times over the years, on trips to the USA as they are unavailable in the UK where we live. Very happy with them. I buy them in 2E width and replace the existing insert with one that has a better arch support as I pronate excessively. Highly recommended

Like floating on air, these shoes. Lightening fast delivery allowed me to wear them to work for the last three days. Not sure why I waited this long. I've been a NB running shoe (900 series) every since they came out in the mid-80's. Should have ordered these years ago.

I walk in them at least 4 miles per day and feet feel great in these postal model shoes. The fact that these are made in USA means a better fit and better built than the imports I've had to wear in the past. It's great to have an American choice for a change. Keep making shoes in this country, New Balance!

These shoes fit very well. I know my size with New Balance and these shoes fit just fine. I also like that they are largely made in the US.

I am not a postal worker but rather a teacher. This is a 365 shoe that I can wear to work and for long walks with no foot fatigue. Costs a bit more but i get three years out of this shoe and it's nondescript so goes with everything. Come on guys no one should be wearing a colorful sneaker into their 30s surrender to the new balance

Its a comfortable shoe for catering and that is why I have two pairs. It comes in hard to find widths of 4e and 6e, and wears well. This is my 4th and fifth pair and I love them!

I am on my feet sometimes 12 hours a day. Usually with my old shoes, my feet and legs would hurt when I got home. Now I have no trouble with my feet or legs when I get home. I will definitely buy these shoes again when I need to replace them.

These may not be the most stylish shoe but they are very comfortable. Great work shoes if you don't need a safety toe. Can't speak about durability as I've only wore them for a couple weeks.

Up to now most of the sneakers I have purchased, including New Balance, never really fit well and I could only wear them I short time. I have wide feet and suffer from arthritis which make it tough to use for a long walk. I discoved the fact that New Balance produce sneakers here in the USA. These fit much better and are "fuller". This is the third pair I bought and they all fit great. I now walk four miles each. Thanks for opening a whole new world to me.

This is my 2nd pair of 706 shoes.First pair were 706m that lasted over ten years .
This new pair fits like the old ones maybe better. However they squeak at times
Squeak seems to be the strings rubbing on the leather.
Will try putting boot oil on leather to see if they still squeak.

Starting wearing these in Jan 2020 and have used them every working day. These are the only shoe I do not have to put my orthotics in and these are my main walking shoes. Getting another pair for the new year.
