The E width made the shoe "wide" enough, but the fabric across the toe box is too small and makes the toe box tight. My toes were stuffed into this tight area. The arch support was minimal. The shoes were very uncomfortable. I am disappointed in the quality of the New Balance product. For years I have worn this shoe in a D width and the toe box was spacious, and in the past the shoe possessed both cushion and stability. The only positive thing I can say is the shoe is stylish and the color selections great. Comfort and wear-ability nearly non-existent. The ordering from Zappos was a breeze. I anticipate the return will be just as easy. At least the customer service is good even if the shoe is a disappointment.

New Balance has narrowed the toe... Cramps the side of the big toe even before walking or running. Not a smart move when they say this is sold as a walking shoe and athletic shoe. Am returning.

The fit was 1/2 size larger than my regular size, but fit fine. Width was fine. I was in love with the NB 1260 V4, but even after reading positive and negative reviews on this shoe, I ordered to give it a chance. However, it is just like the V5, not a comfortable shoe at all. I put it on this morning, wore it on a couple of errands and grocery shopping. I was aware of my feet being uncomfortable and crampy the entire time. I couldn't wait to get home, take them off, and put the in the box to return. Thankfully, Zappos is great to deal with on returns.

Huge footbed...I was swimming in my 2AA’s. Lumpy arch with little support. Heel slips.Grey just isn’t a sexy color for a shoe despite the hot pink & green. Returning.

I loved the perfect fit of V6. The V7 toe box is cramped and the arch support is all wrong. Please offer V6 again!

These shoes look great, feel great at first, but make both my feet fall asleep! I've been wearing NB for 15 years exclusively and have never had this happen. Returning for a different model.

The 1260V6 changed my life - I was lucky enough to have 3 pairs of that shoe. Unfortunately the V7 pales in comparison. There is no structure or stability in this shoe and I too am in pain after wearing. Bring back an earlier version please...I don't need my sneakers to be slippers.

Have worn the various versions of this shoe for years. The new model removes ALL of the stability features of previous models. Designed for overpronators, yet comes in well below the ankle. Shoe is far too light and flimsy to offer even 1/10th of the support of previous models. After a couple of days of wear, I am in pain and have put them back in the box where they will stay. Crushing blow.
