First of all Zappos' service is outstanding, both the purchase and return. That said, I have very wide feet and thought I would chance purchasing a pair of the EE width, but without success. They were still too snug and with regret I have had to return them. I blame my feet, not the shoes.

I love these shoes. I first bought the grey/grey which was a where and I loved the feel but my right first rolls inward when walking due to overpronation so I had to send it back and get the grey/rose gold which was a leather shoes and was more supportive so my foot doesn't roll inward. They have a thick sole which absorbs shock. Lots of padding around ankle which helps support the heel and ankle. Not much of an arch support but I always use my own orthotic anyway. Love the color. Seemed to be narrower than usual even with a size Wide so I sent them back and got an extra wide and it was perfect. And as always, Zappos Customer Service is wonderful to communicate with. Love them!

These shoes were keepers. I have a very hard time finding shoes that fit my misfit feet. I need a shoe with a wide toe box as my toes are quite painful & I can't have a shoe pushing in on them. At the same time, I need a sturdy material that does not give like the mesh shoes do. The shoes with mesh or soft material lets my feet slide too much & it hurts my toes when they touch the side. These shoes keep my feet steady & in place. I have poor circulation so can't have a tight shoe over the top or by the ankle. These shoes do fine. I did not lace them all the way to the top, though; I stopped 1 hole from the top to be sure my feet didn't have anything tight. They fit fine that way, & don't slide around at all or slide up & down on the heel. I also have bad knees, so much so that I use a walker. These shoes have enough good support but are still soft which helps with the walking. I like the light gray color but sure wish they had other options besides black or white. I've returned many pairs of shoes that just didn't work & am thankful to Zappos that they offer free returns; otherwise I just wouldn't have found these.

Stylish and sturdy. I work at an animal shelter and walk a lot... I also can get some nasty stuff on my shoes. These shoes can take the beating while cleaning easily. Highly recommend.

Bought these for my daughter who has a very wide foot. Fit her very well and were very light and comfortable. They looked very nice, too. Very happy with purchase!

This is a very comfortable shoe, with great support. Width and length are perfect for my feet. It's also good-looking. I bought the grey, which is goes with all color clothes, and looks more like a shoe than a sneaker. I'm very happy with it, and will be back for another pair when the season changes!

I have for years bought this shoe in white and black. While I was working as a security office O bought the black pair . Standing on my feet for hours I wanted a comfortable walking shoe and I was not disappointed. I would recommend these walking shoes . They will not disappoint you .

I use orthotics with socks and these shoes provided staibiity in the uneven terrain here in Arkansas - a very difficult problem to solve. They are flexible - another important quality

Ah, comfort at last! Previously tried Easy Spirit Romy and New Balance 623v3 before finding this shoe. Not pretty, but it's a great
sneaker/walking shoe/cross-trainer which fits my orthotics, with a generous toe box and narrow enough heel.

What a great shoe! After reading some of the reviews, I decided to give this one a try. I'm on my feet all day and in a uniform, so I needed a solid black shoe that gave great support and was lightweight. This shoe does it and more. I wore these shoes right out of the box for 9 hours and never once had pain in my feet or knees. Fits true to size. I like them so much I'm contemplating buying another pair as a back up! Great shoe if you're on your feet all day for sure!

I originally bought a size 7 in these shoes, which is what I’ve worn in other New Balance styles. They ran a little larger than expected, so I went down to a 6.5, and that was perfect. I love these shoes — very smart looking with a nice, neutral color that is a change from the typical white sneakers I usually get, yet also not the outrageous neon colors that are so popular these days. I’ve been wearing
New Balance for years, and they never disappoint my small square feet! :-)

Hey, check this out, I work in law enforcement and it's really hard to find good work shoes for women. This shoe is a perfect fit for me , I'm a 7.5 D wide, they look really nice on my feet, add some black shoe polish and I am the bomb out there in the field. Now, if you can turn this shoe into a work boot that would be so so awesome. Hope you are listening.

My arthritic feet are difficult to fit due to overlapping toes and extra large big toe joint on one foot. Must use custom orthotics. Sneakers are really the only shoe I can wear. Former style of choice (847v2) went to a V3 which was totally wrong! so found the 840v2. Hope the version lasts more than typical 4 months

When I found out that the style I usually get has been discontinued, I was heartbroken. It is very hard to find shoes that fit my feet. New Balance has been the only company that I can count on. I ordered these shoes online hoping that they would have a good fit. It has been a success thank you!

My podiatrist suggested these for a problem that I am having. They are very comfortable and the extra wide width is perfect.

These are my favorite shoes ever.. they are perfect for my Achilles tendinitis and are so cute....but i had them for only 6 months (i wear them to work as a pharmacist tech) and they already started opening at the toes.. there's a big hole in each of the shoes.. im so disappointed, i have New balance shoes since so many years and its the first time they rip.. and at this price i would have hope they last much longer!
