love these shoes. I usually wear a 7W and the 7W in this shoes was a great fit. I suffer with plantar fasciitis and this shoe was well cushioned & has good arch support. I plan on buying another pair in a different color

This is my fourth pair of these sneakers. I have wide feet and the xtra wide is perfect. They are cushiony and roomy. At last I can buy these sneakers knowing they will be the right fit for me.

Love these shoes! First just want to thank you for your free shipping, these shoes don't exist in a store within 1000 miles of me, so grateful you guys ship them with a return policy!! Always scary ordering shoes online but these fit true to size and offer the right amount of cushion and support for my feet. After 4+ years of plantar fasciatis and ankle pain, so grateful for a pair of sneakers that I know aren't causing damage!

These are the only shoes that I can wear for bunions and hammertoes!!!! I have gone through many shoes and these are the only ones I can put on and wear from the minute they are out of the box!!! I have to wear orthotics in both shoes, and a lift in my left shoe, because left leg is shorter than the right.
I don't want to see these shoes discontinued!!! It's so frustrating when you find a shoe that works, to find out they've stop making them!!! A NOTE TO NEW BALANCE...PLEASE KEEP MAKING THESE SHOES AND MAKE THEM IN EVEN MORE COLORS!!! When one is down to wearing Mary Janes and these wonderful shoes, I cringe at the though of going through searching more something else!!! I wear a 7 1/2 and extra wide! Fits like a soft glove!!!

I bought these shoes When I was in Florida with the support inside the shoe I had support inserts put in them and it took my back and leg pain away I have had these for over six months and I would buy them again.

I have tried several shoes, looking for more padding under the ball of my foot. This is the only pair I have been able to find. I have a very narrow foot so 2A still feels a little wide but I am able to lace it tight so it is fine. Lots of toe room which is very comfortable. I exchanged the black for the blue. The black was not as attractive to me. Zappos shipping and return and credit to account process is outstanding and very prompt.'

I have neuromas so have to have extra wide shoes for my workouts. Normally I have to settle for some dorky styles just to get the width I need, but these are actually super cute and stylish. They might even be a tad bit too wide. Lol. That’s never happened. Anyway I’m super excited to try these out now that I’ve decided to keep them.

This was my second purchase of these same shoes in about a three month period. I liked the first pair so much that I thought I'd buy a spare for when the first pair wear out! And the price had gone down a bit, which was an added bonus!

I've been an Asics fan for years. This is my first pair of New Balance and I love them! Ordered another pair to have when these run out...I have dealt with plantar fasciitis in the past so I wear custom orthotics with them and they are perfect!

This is the 3rd pair of this shoe that I have owned in the past 15 months and they are close to being perfect, howerver they wear out fast for me. About every 4 months they are no longer wearable for me.

I have been wearing the women's 1080 for years. The 1080v8 is the same as all the others. I wear a size 9 and the size 9 fit perfectly. There is plenty of cushion and no arch support as this is a neutral shoe.

I love these shoes! They are pretty much the same as my older ones that I wore out. This color is lighter, but I usually am walking around in town and on campus. If I'm hiking, I use my hiking boots. I need some arch support and more stability than the new softer styles can give me. I'm 59 and have arthritis. The top 3 videos in the photo gallery are my older shoes. This time, I got a mint color. I almost said "flavor." Ha!

I been wearing New Balance shoes for years due to wide feet. I find the 1080v8 good for high impact exercise or/and days you have to be on your feet all day. The color is nice and the toe box is roomy.

I ordered these shoes larger and wider than I would normally wear, so I am able to wear my orthotics under the foam cushions that came with the shoes. I find them very comfortable. I had the 1080v7 for a year and I wanted the same shoe but couldn't find it, so I ordered the 1080v8 and I think it's better than the v7. I ordered them in black and I like them. They came in two days.

Very comfortable shoe. I needed a large toe box due to my bunions. I put an orthotic in. I will need to order a new pair soon.

I own an older pair of fresh foams.. I wanted to try another color and version.
These do not disappoint. I have a persistent Morton’s neuroma under my left foot. These sneakers make it barely noticeable. If I had to , i. Could remove the inner sole and place my orthotic. Thanks New Balance and Zappos

My 16 year old daughter suffers from severe overpronation of her feet and needs a supportive shoe that will fit her custom orthotics. Some of her past shoes look like something her grandpa would wear. These, on the other hand, are a nice, trendy-looking tennis shoe. She wears them daily without complaint.

My physical therapist recommended these shoes for me as I have back issues and a tendency to supinate. I have very narrow feet, so it's hard to find a sneaker that fits properly. I decided to try my luck with the AA width, and it worked! They're the right width, very comfortable to wear (I work at a standing desk and I wear these shoes while I'm working as well as while I'm walking or exercising), and as a bonus, they look cool, too!

Fantastic fit straight out of the box. Zero break-in time. Perfect fit for my size 12 ee feet. Adds a bounce to your step. Roomy toe area. Comfort throughout. Definitely will buy more of this style!
