If you wear orthotics, forget about it — the heel cup is too shallow.

A comfortable shoe with stable support right out of the box. Has enough space for my toes. The heel fits well. Color is neutral with touches of green and pink.

I'm working with a foot doctor due to Achilles tendinitis and after trying some ASIC shoes like I have worn in the past, he recommended this New Balance style. My custom made orthotics fit inside perfectly and by ordering double wide, the overall fit was just right. It has taken me about 6 weeks and I've had to try and return several pairs of shoes but Zappos made it easy and their customer service department is very helpful by phone. Very long, but positive experience in the end. P.S. I discovered wide and double wide shoes are virtually NOT available in stock at athletic shoe stores!

I bought these for my wife to give her another pair of shoes to avoid repetitive stress, from wearing the same pair of shoes. She absolutely loves them and rotates them with her other favorite pair. Snappy color, too

A little bit of perfect. I don’t even scan the temptations That fill my screen. The 1260 series has been my go-to shoes since NB built it. Wide toe box, heel fit is comfy, never disappoints.

I have flat feet and this shoe feels great and provides excellent support during exercise.

I have had these shoes for a while and been super happy with them. They made walking easier and more comfortable for me. I have narrow feet but need a big toe box and these had it. Very happy with them.

Had the version 6 and was very pleased. V7 even more comfortable and am very happy with my new shoes. I wear them to gym and work 5 days/ wk so really put them to the test! I have a slightly narrow foot and these fit like a glove. Love them!

I have tried to find other shoes that offered the comfort and Stability of New Balance and it's just not out there. My feet feel so much better after running. They are no longer sore, no ankle pain or knee pain. You get what you pay for and this shoe is definitely worth money and peace of mind your feet will have!

Very happy with these running shoes. Provide stability and cushioning and are relatively light weight. Will buy again.

I am on my feet all day and used to suffer from horrible pain in my legs, feet & back but these shoes have helped it all immensely.

I ordered the vintage indigo /coral and love them! I wear 7.5 in everyday casual shoes and was confused by comments going up or down in size so I ordered the 7.5 and they are PERFECT. I have Reebok FloatRides in 7.5 and they felt too big for the first couple months. I got used to it but these are just right! Not as cushioned as the Floatrides but I like them better than my Brooks and Newtons.

1260V...the best new balance shoe. I purchase this style at least every 6 months. The stability, cushion and support is amazing. I thing the V7 is the best edition. It runs a little snug and for those runners who prefer a little extra wiggle room order one size up. These kicks feel like slippers during my training time and find myself wearing them after my workouts!

Im a nurse and walking is big part of my job. This is so perfect for my needs. Ive tried on different shoes in the past but wasnt really helpful with my pressure points and support. New balance is indeed great and has full support that lets me go on with my day pain free. Additional points for the jazzy color choices

Love these sneakers. I used Brooks Glycerine prior to these, loved them but needed a change. Love these so far. They're so comfortable. I'm very impressed and amazed by quality. Just a little pricey!

I did like the shoe and had high hopes for a good ride. Unfortunately I have an inflamed nerve on the bottom of my left foot. I found that after wearing the shoes for just 30 minutes, the pressure was too annoying and I had to take them off. I think for other feet these could be a good match. They are comfortable shoes. Just not for me.

A great all around shoe with some stability. This is my second pair and the original pair held up very well. My only wish is a bit more cushion under the forefoot .

Was not crazy about the fit because they feel too low cut around the ankle area, I prefer the extra support. Not quite as comfortable as Brooks in the cushioning department. Overall, my feet were not happy campers in these, will be returning.

My doctor recommended a good running shoe, New Balance, for walking, for my plantar fascitis; and I have neuropathy in my feet. So I need a wide toe box, with cushioning and good arch support. So far these 840v4 feel great.

I bought 8.5 wide, the fit is as expected. The v7 is definitely different from the v6. Would have like it to fit more like the v6. But I’m satisfied. The bright blue color is stunning in person!
