Customer Reviews New Balance Work & Safety 589v1

This shoe fit good and was comfortable for a limited time. It got too heavy and uncomfortable, thus it's been returned.

always need a wide shoe, this one has a slight lift to the heal and that puts pressure on your toes all day and makes them sore. After a 10 hour shift was hobbling out. ALWAYS MAKE SURE TO BUY A FLAT SOLE WITH SUPPORT

I love NB for the most part. These shoe however hurt my feet. I’m not sure why.

Not comfortable for 10 hrs a day, even less extra insoles

Extremely heavy shoes that have led to ankle, knee, and hip pain. After a 10 hour shift, I'm walking pretty slow thanks to these shoes. I normally wear a size 8 to 9. I ordered a size 9 and they were a little big. I added insoles to try to help provide support, but they didn't help. I did like the amount of room in the toe area.

Their bulky and they hurt at the top

Too boxy and hard. Very uncomfortable.

The shoe fit well, but it was so heavy so I returned it. I didn’t really like the bright colors either. The only reason I got this shoe was because it was like the only 2E comp toe shoe. It would be nice to have more variety of bigger width safety shoes for women.

Overall, the shoe looks nice and fits true to size. They seem sturdy and rugged but I returned these because they are way too heavy for me ( over 1lb per shoe ) and they hurt my feet the first time I wore them. They are not very comfortable, even with inserts.

The shoes are great for standing and walking all day.

This shoe is very big. I wear 6.5 wide but would fit 5.5 B in this shoe. The materials are of good quality but they designed this shoe like a box. Very disappointed as I love their running shoes. The fit is for someone with a larger foot.

I should of ordered 2 sizes up

I don’t like wearing them cause they hurt my feet and I have a cut on my toe from the composite. I’m very unhappy with them.

It was fitted me well but I feel discomfort after three hours .The color and size were good but it was little heavy in weight so I’m returning it .

Get good insoles to put in them. They are not comfortable. It’s like having bricks attached to the bottom of the shoes so you can’t walk right like in regular tennis shoes.

I followed the reviews saying the shoes ran small. I have wider than normal feet, so I ordered wide instead of going up a size. They were too big. I had to return them for normal width. I wear a 7 1/2, but if shoes are wide enough, I can go for a 7. To be safe, went for normal width 7 1/2.

My back was bad after walking 7 miles at work. It has taken a week to recover from it. Not like the NB shoes I have been wearing for the last 6 years.

Toe space very tight . Hard to walk in for 10 hours. Nice heaven shoe.

These shoes look huge! They look like Frankenstein shoes. Not even boot cut jeans would cover them. As for the fit. They fit bigger than I expected. I wore them all day trying to break them in and they hurt my toe to the point it is still hurting a week later. I do not recommend!

The shoe was what I didn't want for the walking that I do It was an all purpose work shoe very attractive and well made.

I read many of the posted reviews thus decided to order half a size bigger, but they were SO much bigger! So uncomfortable, my feet and legs hurt, so I changed shoes mid shift. I'm gonna try my true size. Hopefully they'll feel better. These are my first work shoes.

The fit is fine

Shoe looks great. Fits true to size. Nice for a composite toe. But very very disappointed in the comfort. No cushion in the sole area. No arch support. I had to take the insoles out of my old sketchers arch fit to make these wearable. Come on people. Work shoes have to be super comfy. I’m on my feet 10 hours a day!

felt like i was wearing high heels. My toes had no where to go but on top of each other at the end. it was the strangest feeling. Have worn shoes like this before but have never had this feeling of closing in.

Although I have only worn the shoes one time so far they felt fine, but I still had some heal discomfort. I did purchase gel insoles for them and will return to give a review about how they feel after the addition and a few weeks of wearing them.
