Width and length OK, but I decided I need walking shoes instead of running shoes.

Excellent arch support and stability. Roomy at the toes. Very comfortable. My favourite running shoe ever. Thanks, NewBalance and Zappos!

A great, "stable" shoe. And, don't be afraid of the blue color, I bought one grey and then one blue ... the blue got the compliments! It's a wide toebox for sure, but therefore plenty of room for a bunion (or 2 ... ugh) or other aberrations of the front end of your foot! It has taken me forever to figure out where to go from my beloved ASICS. But their sizing and shaping has gone crazy wrong for me. This NB shoe has everything good and nothing wrong going for it. Also, the insole is where they hid the gel, and it works well. I do wish the heel was just a bit more narrow, but not a performance issue. Very happy.

As an RN in a Cardiovascular lab, I am on my feet all day. These have really helped with the incredibly sore feet and legs at the end of the day. I have always worn New Balance and am very happy with these.

Love these New Balence sneakers! I purchased them in a wide, which is a great option to have. They feel great on my problem feet and have a nice supportive sole too. In fact I like them so much I purchased a second pair for work, (I'm a RN working on a busy post-party floor) where having good, comfortable, supportive shoes is a must.

Bought these shoes in 8.5 WW. They are perfect!! Foot just slipped on in and all I can say is AWWWWWWWW. Been wearing to work for 2 weeks now and I love them. The extra wide width is perfect for me. Loved them so much I ordered another pair in the other color to keep for later.

Ordered narrow and the heel is not as snug as other stability running shoes. Very comfortable.

I just purchased the New Balance W940v3 about 2 weeks ago & so far they have been great shoes. I have problem feet (bunion, hammer toes and plantar fasciitis), so finding comfortable and supportive shoes are always a challenge for me. These shoes are wide enough, have enough support and cushioning that I am not in pain by the end of the day. I used to wear nothing but Brooks running shoes, but they changed the style making them narrower with less cushioning and they also had a seam running right over my bunion...all I can say is thank goodness for New Balance!

I am middle age diabetic woman who needed arch support and comfortable shoes for my trip to Disney and these did it for me. I usually wear 9 in sandals and ordered these in 9.5 and wide. They are fashionable and don't make me look like an old lady like other diabetic approved.

I love my new balance shoes I recently ordered. They were shipped and delivered within a week, I had questions with customer service after I ordered and they were helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The quality and good looks of my shoes are awesome. I'll never buy another pair of sport shoes from anyone e else. Good job New Balance !!

I was an old New Balance fan but left the fold for more color and style options. The other brands also began making a wider toe base which I need. Love the color, sneakers feel comfortable and cushioned. I run about 3.5 miles 4x week, zumba 3x a week! My orthotics fit in nicely. Love them!

Perfect! These shoes have a slightly bigger toe box which is great for anyone with "old person toe problems". Use orthotics so unable to rate arch support. Had better luck than when I go to a shoe store. Not big on neon trim. I'm getting use to it.

After trying a number of New Balance shoes --because they come in extra wide sizes--I finally found these. They have good support and are very comfortable with good cushioning for my hard-to fit feet (bunions, etc.)

I love this shoe! I have been SO frustrated trying to find an athletic shoe that fits my wide, problematic feet. Every time that I finally find one, NB revises the shoe and the replacement one doesn't work for me. (The original 847 fit great...there is no size in the 847v2 that works, etc.) Finally, after a year of searching, THIS SHOE FITS and feels great when I walk. It supports my foot well...is not too big or too small...fits in the heel and the toe. I just wish that it were also available in white. Thank you Zappos for your endless patience as I tried to find a shoe that would work!

It's rare for me to find a shoe that fits as well as these. For reference, I'm a tall woman at 5' 11" and with a shoe size of 12-13D depending on brand and model. I purchased the 13D in this case, as I wanted to err on the side of caution when it came to size. I bought two pair in different colors and I'm pretty satisfied. The comfort, while not 5 stars, is still really good and perfect for my medical lab career where I need good support. The size and width are all spot on. Also, while not pertaining to fit, I'd like to mention that having feet as big as mine, shoes often look like massive clogs on me. These shoes actually make my feet look smaller and more "typical" of women, which makes me feel really good emotional.
New Balance has a new fan.

Love theses shoes, very comfortable. I have a high arch and like a shoe with lots of cushioning and this meets both criteria for me.

great shoe but definitely for running. The heal has an angle that doesn't work for me. I want it for walking long distances.

Reviewed at New Balance
I have been wearing new balance since 97.I have heel spurs.And the foot Dr suggested new balance. My 1st thought was shoes for older people and kick backs.But I have not had to have heel surgery&and they were really attractive shoes.And till I left the 3 star state line of VA, MD,WV and also Georgia and California,in 2011.I have not been able to buy a high numbered walking shoe. I had to switch to Asics gel sneakers running shoes.And there great.But not new balance. So I regret I'm unable to buy these. They were my saving grace for so long.I learned in MD that the higher the # in a waking shoe the better.I could have been a spokeswoman for free.And a females,female. Get tired of the oppressed colors for females. Females get salmon,teal,mint green etc....And men get the lime green or florescent bright colors.And I'm not wearing men's shoes.I only find this in nyc. I've had to change to a running¬ a walking Asics shoe. I settled upon a great shoe but none are as good as new balance outside nyc. I regret I'm unable to a review as a result of not being able to get a great pair.But I do reccomend the name new balance.I feel I'm going to have to go straight to the new balance source and country to get a great pair of new balance. I didn't vote for the burning of the bra in the 60's movement.I was not born into the era by a few years.And I love our great G-d given men.And notice the difference between the 2 sexes.But I want the same choices in colors as men. Again I reccomend n.b as a whole.

This is a nice shoe, but it is heavy and feels rather clunky. I think my feet would get tired out wearing them for a long time. Otherwise, a good shoe. They weigh over 12 ounces each. Most shoes weight 9-10.

I took these shoes for a long walk on their first day out of the box. They are nice, comfortable and for the most part, the same fit as I am used to with an 8 2A foot. I think the heels may be a little wider than usual but not something which is a bother...little fluffier sock may be necessary. While they are supposed to be for over pronators, I'm don't think they overcorrect as much as some other styles. I haven't tried them yet with my orthotics so I can't say for sure. Certain New Balance styles are such strong correctors of overpronation, that to put in orthotics, which are already correcting for the problem, causes other problems. They are attractive and can be worn with anything. Pleasantly happy with the purchase.
