Could not get a pair of 990's in my size (14 W) and preferred colors (black or navy blue). Thought I'd give these a try. Sadly, the fit is not the same, and I returned them.

This would be a great shoe if it wasn't for the ridiculous hard plastic chunk where there should be cushioning... who ever designed and approved this shoe should be fired. I even still have 2 new pairs of 990v4s waiting for use
Ps I'm glad the 990v6 doesn't have that plastic ankle strap.

I'm a Security Officer at the WinStar World Casinos. Have been for over 14 years. Have been wearing New Balance for most of my time there. The old 411's and 623's were the best shoes I ever had. Then you changed them on the inside and I had to buy insoles which made them just OK. Now you don't even make them at all and I can't find shoes that work for me at all. I ordered the 928v3's in 10.5 4E while wearing 519 10.5 4E's. The 928v3 came in and were 10.5 6E and measured at least 2 inches longer than the 519's. Whoever is in charge of engineering and measurements needs to be much better educated in their respective jobs. Because they are not very good at this at all. You really need to go back to manufacturing the original 411's in black as they were the absolute favorite of all, especially Security Officers and all the other employees who work/worked at WinStar and many of the other casinos. I know this is a waste of my time telling you this but I speak for many others who are on their feet all week. Please, reconsider bringing back the original 411's and get your sizing corrected. Thank you.

Been buying new balance 1400 boots for many years best shoes I've ever worn but can't find size 12 anywhere so I tried these and they are terrible and already hurting my feet.

Daily use on a farm with mud and muck. I like the fact there is a flat sole and not a lot of tread to pick up gunk.

These shoes are dangerously slippery in water we have to hold on to tables to walk through water.

I bought a pair of 928v3 a while ago. The right shoe cut into m y ankle so I had to wear a foam pad, which stuck out of the shoe and looked unsight.ly. Walking in them was fine with the foam pad in. Recently it was time to buy another pair. I had convinced myself that the first pair was unique, i.e., just a bad pair. When I received the second pair I had exactly the same problem, so I returned them. It was not just a bad pair but apparently a bad design.

I have never paid so much for a tennis shoe and been so disappointed. The tongue is way too short, if you lace the shoe through the top 2 holes which I always do the laces go under the tongue and it is very uncomfortable, very very poor design

I bought 3 different NB shoes to try each. This one turned out to be a great disappointment. My lower back is in pain days after one walk in this walking shoe. Tried it out in the house for a few days and seemed fine. On the concrete it was like no give in the soles. Rock hard! Even with orthotics no improvement.

I have foot issues so take this review with a grain of salt. These are one of the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever bought. Within a week of wearing them, my feet, ankles, knees, and back were hurting. I bought new insoles and a heel lift which did no good for comfort. Hopefully they work better for you than me if you choose to buy them.

I ordered a wide and double checked to see if it was just a wide not anything bigger, but when I got it they were huge on me. I bought some from somewhere else. New Balance is not a bad brand either.

Right shoe is not watertight and lets water in. Get a wet sock every time.

I have purchased over 20 shoes from NB, so I broke down and purchased the most expensive shoe I have ever purchased and after one week the bottom on the right shoe starts coming off. I have glue it and still 25% is still flapping around. I guess I will go back to another brand. I should have returned but did repair as I need them for conference and only shoe I brought. Disappointing to say the least.

This was my first NB order, so I ordered my usual 11.5 & extra wide. Wow, these shoes were really, really Large - too long, and way wide. The shoe didn't seem to have the arch support (I have a very high arch) that my previous walking shoes provided, For that reason, I returned the shoes rather than exchanging. I'm still patiently waiting on my refund.

I ordered USA walking shoes and received shoes made in Vietnam. I kept them because I needed the shoes.

I am really unsatisfied with you on line order . for customer it is very confusing to have same 928v3 for hook and loop and lace shoes.
Why you can not use 928v4 or even 928v2 different number to separate two different style It is not rocket science, normal customer are not salesman or worker in your warehouse to know the difference

I've been wearing this similar shoe (507?) for probably 15 years and these don't hold a candle to them. They are very hard to break in almost impossible! Please bring back your Made in USA model. USPS loved the shoe.
