Customer Reviews New Balance 847v3

Ordered both sizes 9.5 EE and 10EE after foot surgery. Usual size 9.5 fit fine due to roomy toe box in this style. Somewhat disappointed with buckled material on right shoe which appears to be from poor workmanship. I will keep this pair though as I need them now for physical therapy. Plan to return larger size shoes.

These were recommended in an article about shoes for heavier people, unfortunately, unlike the many many pairs of New Balance I've had in the past, these just don't have enough support. My arches collapse and these did nothing to help prevent that, if I had kept them I could see myself wearing them out very quickly (and injuring myself) by walking over them on the arch side. This won't deter me from New Balance, but these aren't the shoe for someone with overpronation issues.

I wore NB years ago until they changed the style I liked. I saw this and decided to give it a try. Was so excited when I received them because they were super cute. I tried them on and had to double check the size because my toes were so cramped into the end. Very disappointing, as I wear the largest size they come in.

I’ve worn one version or the other of these New Balance shoes for years and years. The last three pair I bought had issues with delamination of the souls, but figured it I’d give New Balance one more try. First, I agree the toe box is rather large. Since I appreciate not having my toes smashed, I didn’t mind that. But, the material the shoes are made of feels and looks cheap; certainly worse than any other pair I’ve ever had. The “leather” is stiff and already has an odd crease over the toes of the right shoe after the first day of wear. The insole doesn't seem to have the support or cushioning of previous versions of the shoes. Since I have to wear black shoes for work, I am keeping them but will actively be looking for another pair of shoes. Very disappointed in these shoes - sizing, construction, and materials. Don’t waste your money.

Yuck! This is a disappointing replacement for the 847v2!! More cheaply made; material on the vamp is tacky-looking. I spent ten minutes trying to lace at the top, but the holes are not aligned. Will stock up on the 874v2!
