I had a previous pair of the 840 series, and am pleased to say I'm still very happy with 840s as my shoe of choice. No break-in period, no lower back issues from heel change. I reluctantly bought online, so feared I might require a different size and width. Looked inside the toungue of the previous 840s bought about 4 years ago, and ordered what I read. Perfect. I plan to get a second pair soon.

Great shoe! Fit is true to size. Tongue needs to be a little longer; tends to move off to the side during wear. Otherwise nice fit.

I have to say... these shoes look huge. They’re not sleek or streamlined. They’re sturdy, comfortable workhorses, built for wear, not style. The fit is perfect for me. I have high arches and a very high instep, and the 9-1/2 wide (my usual NB size) hugs my ungainly feet perfectly with room to spare. My only complaint: they could use a tiny bit more cushioning.

I needed a shoe with a thicker "sole" per Dr orders for after surgery and this shoe has worked perfectly. It's still comfortable for walking and the grey is lighter than what I was expecting. The wine color offsets it nicely.

I bought these shoes for work (health care) and they are super comfortable, even on days with a long shift. The toe box is generous (which I love), but doesn't look clunky. Good arch support.

I have been wearing these ( both colors) for the last several years . This was a replacement pair. Haven't found anything as comfortable from day one ! Wide toe box is perfect for someone with bunions like me. I just wish they came in more colors - I'd snatch them up in an instant!

The 840v4 in extra wide is a perfect fit for me. The rounded toe area gives plenty of room, while tapering mid-foot fits the arch area well. My step feels light, cushioned and supported. Well done, New Balance!

Love this shoe! It felt great and very comfortable. I went with the wider shoe but could have easily been happy with these! I wish it was not mesh on top but otherwise I love it!!!

I had a bunionectomy with bad complications-swelling, nonhealing fusion, etc. I went to the New Balance store and they recommended this shoe. It has been a lifesaver. The toe box is the best I have found from trying other brands-my toes are super sensitive to any touch and this shoe gives me plenty of room to be comfortable. The 840 gives me plenty of support for my back and knees as well. I have tried other brands, and this shoe is it for me! I highly recommend if you need a wider shoe and plenty of toe room.

I got these last year when I started running, and they lasted a long time. When it came time to get a new pair, I decided to stick with these. They have great support, and do not cause blisters or rub in any weird places.

These New Balance shoes, are so far, the best, most supportive running shoe I have found. I am still going to try another brand after recommended by my sister so I may still end up returning them. I wear a narrow size shoe and I have to say that not enough companies make a narrow size. I am in search of a running shoe that completely surrounds and "cradles" my foot with support. I have had some in the past that are no longer made.

This is my second pair of this style of New Balance running shoes. They fit my narrow feet that have many issues. They're so comfortable for walking and look great also. I highly recommend. I wear an 8 1/2 in a regular shoe but take a 10 for this one.

I have had to have a full leather show in the past as I need full support. The problem now is with my arthritis, I'm having issues with callouses and sore areas on my toes and sides of my foot. The 840V4 gives me this best of both worlds. Excellent support (I haven't even had to put my orthotic inserts in yet) and the uppers stretch to fit my foot with rubbing.

I use these shoes for walking. They are slightly longer than my regular 7.5B, but the toe box is just right, so they feel comfortable. The shoelaces are rather short, barely enough for regular lacing, but not enough for the last holes.

I wear a size 6 double wide which is hard to find. These give me plenty of room in the toes and are very comfortable. Love New Balance shoes!
