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

I bought a pair of 928v3's 5 years ago. They were finally wearing out, so I replaced them with another pair. They are comfortable and well cushioned. Great for walking the dog, working in the yard, and everyday wear.

Fits fine, have been using these for long walks for years, replacing them every six months. My only observation is that the laces become smooth after a month or so and so won't stay tied. I replace them with elastic laces, and all is well.

I bought these shoes for my 12 year old son to wear with his leg braces. They fit nicely. I'm glad to have them.

Still need upgraded insoles. The shoes are light and have a nice base.

Currently I have to wear an AFO (ankle-foot orthosis) which necessitates a larger and wider shoe (14, 6EE) than my usual size (13,C). Thankfully New Balance offers a few options in this size, and most of them are even attractive (ever checked out orthotic shoes? Yikes.) I'm hoping my issue will end as the leather and materials soften and stretch because as of now, short of unlacing the shoe part-way, getting my foot into the shoe with the brace in place is difficult. So I own this quibble and believe it will end over time.

Fit me well right of the box, considering I have a wide foot size. Comfortable.

I have a black and brown pair and this is my second pair of white ones. They are comfortable and easy on the feet. However, one thing I don't care for is the tongue of the shoe won't stay in place as it slides down under the shoe strings once you start walking

My husband wears a size 12 EE in every shoe he owns, and he has a good many pairs. In this shoe, however, that size is one-half size too long.

Very nice looking, comfortable, well made shoes. I've worn Brooks Addiction Walkers exclusively for years and have searched multiple times for an alternative. These will probably be the ones even though they are more expensive and not quite as comfortable, as Brooks stopped offering brown Walkers. It's a tradeoff but a good one.
