The shoe is perfectly designed for various sizes from narrow to extra wide. It makes for every casual occasion including chores and long walks.

I've been buying this shoe for several years as I need a narrow width & many shoes don't provide that option. Also, I have flat feet, so I need a well made shoe to give me support I need, even with a custom made orthotic I use. I walk for fitness, so these give me that support. And when the heels wear down, the uppers stay pretty decent, so I'm able to get them re-heeled locally & get three or four cycles out of each pair before the entire shoe becomes no longer wearable. Hopefully the larger selection of color options goes back to what it was. These shoes are on the pricey side, but they hold-up well.

Excellent leather shoe for my orthotic inserts. Flat sole, up to 6E toe box and comes in half sizes.
It has ridgid side to side stability and are not mush. They hold your foot and ankle in place. They last me almost a year where cheap shoes last 4 months.
Bad splayed feet are a pain, literally.
Will buy another pair now as I like to have a spare in hand.
They are a bit pricey but worth it for me and my bad feet.

I was looking for a casual non-hiking, non-tennis shoe that provided lateral support[. These shoes look good and feel great. Perfect!

I had a bad right foot problem for decades. Blisters, Plantar Warts, and generally painful. These are the only shoes that I ever wear now. I must have boughten a dozen pairs over the years and my feet are now clinically happy.

These arrived about a week or so ago and I am very pleased by the quality and fit. Very much the same experience as my two previous pairs. Opted for white(still have black pair), but really wanted tan. That color did not appear available anymore.

I use these for work shoes. Spend 12 hours a day on my feet. The shoes are comfortable and give good support. This is my 5th pair and they don't let me down.

I purchased these shoes for work, I'm up and down my entire shift. They are very comfortable. It feels like I'm walking on a cloud.

I had very bad foot and leg pain so bad I couldn't sleep. A friend recommended New Balance and day one of wearing them the pain stopped. I walk alot for work and these are my go- to shoes hands down.

First, my podiatrist, who actually worked for New Balance, tells me that this model - the 928 - is hands down the best built shoe that New Balance makes. I believe it.
They are a little stiff at first and do require a short break-in period. The leather is of great quality, takes a good shine, if you want, and is very durable. I have 2 pairs - a black pair that is over a year old and now a new brown pair. When they are sitting side by side with their shoe trees in, you would be hard pressed to tell which pair was the new pair.
I find the toe box to be just a little too narrow. It puts undue pressure from the side on my big toe. This is the only complaint I have. It should be noted that I wear a narrow shoe and this might not be a problem in other widths. I am considering getting a shoe stretcher and working on widening this area.

For years I have struggled to find a comfortable walking shoe. The New Balance walking shoe has consistently worked for me. The roomy toe box and quality workmanship has made New Balance my first choice in footwear.

I bought 2 pairs at the same time. I'll wear one pair all day, then switch to the other pair the next day. This give each pair a full day workout, followed by a full days rest. I'll walk a minimum of 4 miles which is 8000 steps, and usually a fifth mile at the same time to get my daily 10,000 steps. I'll then wear the shoe as an everyday shoe for the.rest of the day. So, in short a minimum of 10,000 steps per day. If I do the 5 miles in one stretch, I usually so 12 to 13 steps total. However, the extra steps don't necessarily add up to mile as they.are shorter everyday activity steps..
I find the shoes to be very comfortable and certainly suited to walking. Previously I'd used the New Balance running shoe and it just was not as comfortable which makes sense as it wasn't designed for walking. At my age it hurts to jog my memory, much less my body. So walking is the perfect exercise for me. I'll walk at a pace of around 16 minutes per mile while enjoying the beauty of a golf course near my home on the island of Kauai.
For a walker from a casual to seriou type, I'd highly recommend this shoe.

First let me say that my shoes were delayed by almost a month because of the International Delivery company I engaged here in Israel. My maim reason for purchasing a NB shoe is because my feet have a fairly wide width. I have not really used the shoes yet. However trying them on was a delight. They seem to fit me perfectly. So all seems to be well for now. My problem with NB is that you do not deliver outside the US. Using an Israeli Int. Delivery company adds to my costs greatly. I therefore will look for alternative solutions. Another company , other than NB? Perhaps another creative solution. I would reconsider this policy of yours.

Second purchase of this model shoe, used for every day work and walking. The first pair lasted over 10 years before the tops began to show wear while the sole looks almost new. The shoe is exceptionally comfortable and durable and is the best fitting shoe I own. Having a tennis shoe in a narrow width also improve the comfort. Great shoe.
