This shoe addresses many factors for me. Above asl. It has helped me walk with balance and comfort. I have many issues with my feet including plantar fasciitis and flat feet. NB is excellent

If you wear black leggings like I do 24/7, these shoes are for you!

These shoes are nice fitting for a super narrow, overpronator. The support is nice but when I look down at my feet they seem huge. While this bugs me I still need a good shoe like these.

This is a great shoe for comfort. My old pair has taken quite a beating and I was happy to replace it with the same shoe. I wish this shoe came in better colors!! I already have the gray with pink and I love them. I really wanted something new so I ordered these...they are ok...but not exactly as stylish as I would like. BUt they feel great!

My dad and sister both have this shoe and love them. My dad is on his 4th or 5th pair. I finally gave in and spent the money. The shoe felt very comfortable and stable with good support. The arch support that I use fit easily into it It just feels too long. I want to try a half size down to see if that fits me better.

I wanted to use this pair of NB on a trip .. the color is beautiful and unusual.. this style has a slightly tighter toe box .. but still worth keeping .. can wear without breaking it in ... hope to buy another similar pair soon

The fit was fine and they're super supportive, but need more cushioning. I finally wound up buying HOKA (Gaviota), which are unbelievably cushioned, stabilizing and supportive.

I love the support and stiffness of these sneakers; I just wish there were more cushioning, particularly in the front of the shoe. Alas, I'm returning them and buying Hoka's, which I know will provide support and cushioning.

good support but I needed a little more room in the toe box for my orthotics. will return and try them in a wide width. the mint green color was very soft and nice.

I love the width these sneakers, however, the length is a bit small. My toe is hitting the front. I will return. Hope they are in stock!

I've been wearing New Balance running shoes since 1986, over 30 years. I love New Balance and I'm doing my best not be persuaded to try another brand. I'm currently wearing the 990v4. I put this shoe in the $120 range, $128 tops. It is comparable to the 993 and before shoe. But I am being patient to see what New Balance does next to price these. Go New Balance...ALL THE WAY!!

These shoes feel great, I'm able to jog so comfortably in them, and I'm not even a true jogger! They look a little bulky, but I guess that's what to expect with a size 13.

These shoes were disappointing. Like others have said the tongue is huge. I couldn't even get the tongue to stay in place to try them on, for it kept popping out. Not sure if they were comfortable or not, for I couldn't get them on ! Back they go.

I have a slightly narrow foot and I am usually an 8.5 in running shoes, but I ended up with a 9AA (narrow) in these. I usually have trouble with my knees when I run but since wearing these shoes I don't have any pain. My only complaint is that the shoes are kind of hot when wearing them in warm weather and I don't feel like my foot really breathes. Otherwise, I have no complaints and I can see myself buying the same shoes once these wear out (which is very unlike me because I always like to try something new).

This is my 3rd pair (2 of vs 3). Not much change between version 3 and 4. Great for people with very narrow feet but need space in the toe box area. I will buy again.

These were ok, but didn’t fit as well as the Brooks Ghost. These are heavier, clunkier and cost quite a bit more.

I almost bought this shoe but there was a place on the interior that seemed to rub. I may order it again in a different color to make sure I get a different shoe, and see if the new shoe rubs in the same place.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks

NB990s have been my go-to running shoe for almost a decade now. I have wide but small feet so finding a shoe that is wide enough but small enough can be challenging. I also have high arches - my feet do better when I get arch support orthotics to use instead of the generic inserts. Also, while these are an excellent running and walking shoe, they did not provide me with the lateral support I need for krav maga.

I hate website & fact that you can't use more than one coupon code at a time or that if you make a mistake with online order, you can't reverse it even if u call five minutes later...but the shoes are good.

Finding good-looking extra-wide shoes is a daunting task. I love my new sneakers. They are modern and good-looking. I replaced my orthodics with the removable insole. My feet swell particularly the right one. However, the shoes are wide enough and deep enough for my orthotic insert and my swollen foot. I walked all day shopping today with these shoes on - very comfortable all day!
