I buy the new balance sneakers because they are made in the USA. They are comfortable and always know what you are getting

If you have very thin feet, this is a great choice. I have to go with 2A width and this is one of the rare shoes that actually is that narrow. I like the looks and they are very comfortable. As a nice bonus they are made in the USA, which is exceedingly rare. Highly recommend!

Shoe size runs between medium and extra large..difficultnt to buy tennis shoes on line that fit based on representation in ad. Pleased with fit and size selected.

NB 990's are great. I went to my NB Store looking for a shoe for everyday walking. Thought I needed a stability walker. Sales associate put my feet on the scanner and determined that what I really needed was the NB 990: more "give" and less rigidity than a true walker. I added a pair of NB orthotics to sully an arch to my flat feet. 990's are very flexible: not but with enough stability so my foot does not "wander". The orthotic helps makes it a great shoe for everyday walking. Don't think of it as just a "running" shoe!

I have bought almost exclusively NB shoes for a couple decades because they fit my feet like a comfortable glove and the quality is always there.

This shoe is great for everyday wear. I use this for going to the mall, taking my daily walks, etc.
The leather is great quality and I love that it is Made in the USA.

These shoes are extremely comfortable and provide the arch support I need. Zappos is my "go to" for shoes. Zappos service is excellent!

I have been wearing many different styles and sneaker types from New Balance for over 30 years and I have never been disappointed. The quality and fit are superior, that along with Zappos excellent customer service can't be beat. These are great running shoes for my needs, I average about 20 to 25 miles a week on different surfaces and they have been perfect.

These New Balance 990s are extremely comfortable. They are well-built, tough, and pleasing to the eye. They are the best. I have worn other brands (briefly), but find that New Balance is a better shoe.

The shoe is supportive and comfortable but not very stylish. What my kids call an “old man shoe” but this was better than an all white pair with a big Velcro strap!

My husband has worn the 1540 in 12 4E, but this shoe in 4E was much too narrow. He went to a store to try the 6E and it still was too narrow! Very different toe shape than the 1540. Plus, it runs big in length - you might have to go down a half size. The Brooks Ghost 11 has a great wide toe box in 4E, so he is using that one for road running. It's softer than the NB 1540.

First, I have to order men's sneakers to accomodate my big wide feet and even bigger orthotics (for arch support). They are super comfy! I think they may run a tiny bit longer than the 880 but I wouldn't say a half size larger. They may prove to be a bit too wide for me as I use them, but we'll see. I could wear them right out of the box so I think that says a lot. I wore them hiking about 7 miles only a week after breaking them in and my feet felt fine. And BTW, how nice to have color choices other than the typical mens' black or grey (yawn). I got the seafoam green color and LOVE it.

The best bang for your buck shoe in the footwear industry. The NB 990 is the gold standard of footwear. I've had Mephisto shoes that are twice to three times the price and they don't compare in quality and comfort. New Balance's technology and quality on the 990 are ahead of the game. I hope they never conform and keep making these shoes the same way they always have.

My husband usually wears a 4E in New Balance, but this model is much narrower than a 4E. The 1540 in 4E is great. So, we're going to a New Balance store to try a 6E in this 990. It is softer than the 1540, which he needs for road surface walking/running.

I wear size 9 1/2 or 10 and have huge orthotics (I have no arch), but the orthotics fit great in these men's sneakers and they're comfortable right out of the box! Nice look and I love the color too (got the seafoam green). Hope they treat me as well on my long walks as they have so far around the house. Highly recommend for people with wide feet who may need extra space due to ortho issues.

Fit was better than expected. I'm always a little nervous about purchasing online (even with free return shipping, it's still a pain) without trying the shoes on. But with New Balance, I've never had a problem. This model changed a little, but the comfort, feel and materials are perfect. Best price with Zappos!

I highly recommend Zappos and these New Balance shoes. I have a terrible time finding shoes wide enough and with enough arch support. I've tried other (cheaper) shoes and they did not measure up. I will continue to purchase shoes from Zappos.

Terrific fit and comfort. I only buy New Balance for athletic shoes because of the superior support. I don't think you can go wrong with this shoe.
