The shoe fit a lil tight the first day but after one day of working in them they were great. I’m a 10.5-11 depending on the shoe this one gives me a good fit at 11.

I had originally ordered my normal size of 10.5 4EE and those were a little small. I called and exchanged them for an 11 4EE and these fit perfect thanks for the help

So glad this New Balance style comes in multiple widths. Troubled feet need a comfortable fit. This style and width is true to size, width, and comfort.

Relatively light, very comfortable and easy to get on and off. Get stay dry and shoe has proven durable. It's been better overall than my Reebok Sublites.

I usually wear New Balance sneakers and felt their boot would fit the same. I've been having problems with my ankle and needed the support of a high top. These were just what the doctor ordered. They are a good fit and have given me the extra ankle support I was hoping for.

Fit so perfect that (since the composite toe has no give) if my toenails start to get too long, I can tell it time to clip them!

Natural Balance always lives up to it's quality name which stands for excellence, just like Amazon does. True to size in all ways. Good fir from the start. I am wearing them around on the streets for a week before intense work, however, they have felt great so far, just my policy to get used to a new shoe before I use them for work. I hardly notice them on, which is the best recommendation I can give a safety work shoe. 5-STAR al the way.

These boots are great, and comfortable. I'm a pro-barefoot-er but needed something comfortable, light, and ROOMY for my feet. I've been barefooting and using toe excercisers/ spreaders to help combat many years of too tight and too small shoes. I've gone from and 11/12 to a 13/13.5 reliably. I've been specifically wearing wider and wider too, and experiencing less arch pain, less halux joint pain and less foot fatigue overall. This pair of boots in 13/ 4E -Extra Wide is a dream. I have them laced to slip on and off at the back door, and don't get tired from wearing them. The sole is nice and flat, my toes just barely can touch the sides exactly how I like, even if a thick sock was involved, but my usual 13 seems just a hair too small. My toes are a little too close and touch the end, where usually I like to use a thick sock in winter I don't think I can. I'm hesitant to try a size 14/ 4E, but I'm going to give it a shot before returning the 13/4E. I wouldn't call these uncomfortable at all, but I did 4/5 stars because as nice sturdy work boots they're great, but I think I'll be too confined with a big sock and I've never needed a 14... yet. So I took off one star because I think they're about a half a size too small, and I think a 14 will be too loose in summer with thin/ no socks. I'll definitely update my review if it's my feet continuing to grow is the problem and not these boots being sized too small. We've had very good luck ordering New Balance in the past, but there are some size discrepancies. Luckily Zappos has this nice return policy for getting the right fit.

New balance has the width I need for most of my shoes. Having an extra wide composite toe boot for work will make my job less cumbersome. I usually require an oversized pair of work boots to fit the foot width.

I bought these for my step-dad and he is loving them. He needs to wear steel toe boots for work but with his wife feet he has always had to wear uncomfortable shoes, till now. He said he feels like he's not even wearing shoes, that's how comfortable they are.

I needed to purchase a boot with composite toe and electric shock protection for my profession as a Facilities Manager. I googled lightest composite toe boot. After going through the list and being unable to decide, I wondered if New Balance offered work boots on their website. I found exactly what I needed with this boot. Is it a very light boot? No. But with composite toe and thicker sole for electric shock protection, I'm not sure they or anyone could make it any lighter. The fit is perfect, just like all of my other New Balance shoes. 9.5 4E. If you already like the way New Balance shoes fit and feel, then absolutely choose this boot if you need boots. Thank you New Balance for making this boot.

I've been buying NB sneakers and work boots for years now. These are comfortable, lightweight and whatever they're made of, it's easy to clean and looks great. Super water-repellent yet breathable. Was tentative about the composite toes, but they have been awesome.
