I want the item and black and we didn’t have it in the admin Brown, the exact same shoe but only in browned, about $50 more. I think that’s outrageous. Same shoe different color should be same price. I bought it only because I actually needed it and I couldn’t find any place else. But trust me I’m continuing to look and when I find it someplace else I’ll switch companies.

wide enough un front but heel area should be narrower. All in all very good

I'm really happy with the shoes I purchased. They were a little expensive but I guess you get what you pay for.

When I find the shoe in my size mens 8 4E with removable insole for my orthotics its great but I can never find it or it takes forever to buy it, I dont know what happened with this company, I usually order three at a time, I dont understand why the problem every time i need shoes which is usually every 8 months, very poor customer service

I have been told that New Balance is discontinuing this shoe. Big mistake. This is one of the most suggested shoe from our local pediatrists. Works well with orthotics and over the counter arch supports. Please do not stop making this shoe.

My husband has neuropathy on bottom of his feet which is extremely painful. These shoes have lessened the pain when he walks.

The shoes rub at the big toes, and feel very tight across the front. So far I have not tried wearing them more than 4 hours per day. I am hoping they will break in after a few days. (BTW, I removed the footbeds and inserted my own orthotics.)

Shoe is great, accommodates my orthotic, only issue is that it wears badly on outer heel due to pronation. I go through them much faster in new model than original 928.

I walk 4-5 miles daily at a local paved county park. This trail has hills, valleys and turns. Most of the trail cuts through a mature forest around a lake, and is beautiful.
This shoe is a solid platform, comfortable and has enhanced my walks.
The only negative I've found is on a moist surface traction is compromised.

They do take a while to break in however they are comfortable, I do need another pair with better cushion.

I made it very clear that I wanted this shoe with velcro fastening and I was assured that they were however, when I received them they had laces. I am givi;ng you a four star because when I called to return it was handled very very professionally and pleasanrt with a rapid refulnd.. I am waiting and will reorder as soon as the desired shoe is available.

Everyday, this last order i made, I did not order the same shoe as I did before and they are not as comfortable as the ones I had ordered before. I thought they were the same.

Great for foot support & health. Love the look.
Only shortcomings are a short tongue & lace. Otherwise a super shoe.

The shoe was great. We have to return for a 12 instead 12.5. The width was fine just need a 12.

I had to put the shoes on a stretcher for a couple days and forego the orthotics I usually use in walking shoes to get them to fit the way they're supposed to, and the result was good. I have wide feet and an arthritic big toe that needs a high toe box, and the stretcher did the trick. I was about to give up on NB after a couple of really atrocious fits, but this model might keep me around a little longer

New Balance is THE shoe for foot support and health.
For some reason, NB has shortened the tongue of the shoe
so that it is TOO SHORT and difficult to position correctly.
I guess to match the TOO SHORT tongue, they provide laces
that are... TOO SHORT.
The shoe otherwise is great, but they need to use common sense
with the length of the tongue and shoe laces.
Previous models of NB men's walking shoes did NOT have these problems.
Fix this & the shoe is as good as it can be...

I have to get these about every six months because they wear out with my feet issues. I buy them locally or direct from New Balance. When I ordered these through Zappos this time because my usual go to places did not have them in stock. I don't know if my feet have changed yet again or what, but this pair and one before them (I did get to return the first pair no hassles because they didn't seem right) for some reason have not relieved my knee and back pain like they normally do when I first get them.

These are nice shoes, but they run a little large in length and width. My husband added an insole instead of returning and they seem to be working out. A little clunky looking. The design could use some tweeking, but overall happy with the purchase. Can't remark on how long they will last because they are new to him.

The NB 928 Wide is an Icon among quality, stable, comfortable men’s shoes. This is my 3rd Pair over the past 8 years. Awesome in every way you measure a Shoe.

The shoes are very comfortable and the soles have a good firm grip when walking on tile floors. My only complaint is that the shoe laces are way too long which forces me to tie a double knot to keep them from dragging the ground. I wish they were a little shorter.

After years of wearing shoes that were too short, and not wide enough, it is great that we have found the correct size and width. This is the third pair we have bought, and will continue to do so. Also buy golf shoes

A well built shoe that is true to size. I have worn 12 2E for over 20 years and still sized perfect. The tongue is too short. In the picture the top lace hole is unused and this is the only way you can wear it. If the top hole is used the lace is over the tongue and against your foot. I'm not sure how this slipped by New Balance as there top tier shoes have always been perfect and long lasting.

I use them for work so the black helps. I also use them at rehab exercising. The only thing that could improve them is a place nearby to try on different versions to see what would be perfect for my feet
