These shoes are supposed to be slip resistant but that is not the case 100% of the time. I have tried to order 2 pairs now and neither one is really working out. I don't know that I would order slip resistant shoes from NB again.

I ordered a half size bigger than my normal size because (A) New Balance sizes all run small and (B) 2 of my family members had to size up when buying this exact model. I had to order 3 times and go a size and a half bigger then my normal size. I got NO HELP whatsoever from NEW BALANCE customer service.

Don't buy these! I was so please that these fit by abnormally large-footed 11 yr old BUT when they got damp they began to smell of cat urine (we do not own a cat). I washed these shoes & the odor persists.

This shoe is at least 1 inch shorter than other size 12. No way even close to the size ordered.

I was excited to wear these shoes. However, I was disappointed after trying them on. They definitely run small and narrow. I run a bread route for a living and I'm in and out of restaurants all day. The grip on the shoe is excellent and I was able to move right through water and grease with no problem. The other problem I have is they do not ventilate at all. My socks were soak and wet all day and finally after a few days I stopped using them. New balance needs to work on the design and I'll buy these again. I ended up purchasing a pair of all black hiking boots from NB, but they're not non slip.

Runs really small. I'm a 10.5 in most NB. i needed 11W in these. Non slip was super hard to begin. Needed some scuffing up. I've had them for 6 months. The nonslip has warn out. The toes have curled. I needed a new insole 3 months in just to extend their life. Don't buy. Waste of money.

This shoe ran small and wasn't comfortable at all. I tried it on immediately after a long walk in my NB Cypher Runs, and it felt like going from soft foam to concrete. Great looking shoe, but not the gal for me.

I was always a 16 2E in all NB shoes, now 16 4E is too narrow. Luckily I still have my pair of minimus 20v4 I bought years ago. I wish I had bought multiple pairs at the time. new balance, what happened??

The size feels to small and narrow and does not seem to have any arch support. Not a good shoe for work if you walk a lot.

Within 6 months of purchase with moderate use these shoes began to fall apart. The tread of the shoe is coming unglued and NB believes this to be normal. Not worth the $. Find another brand.

I have two pair of 860v8, size 10- 2E. They fit fine for regular wear. I wanted a pair for relaxing in that would be very comfortable with the fresh foam. So I ordered 10.5 - 4E. When they arrived I was surprised to see that although they were marked correctly, they were shorter and about two sizes narrower. I've already sent them back.

Worst new balance shoes I've every had. MY FEET HURT. I threw them out in the garage, never to wear again. I've been wearing new balance since 1983. BAD BAD BAD.

The shoe runs small and is not the most comfortable I would not ever buy this shoe and considering I own at least four other pairs of new balance shoes. This shoe by far I am extremely disappointed with and would never recommend to anyone.

Great looking shoes. Went to a party to break these in. After 3 hours my feet were killing me. Not sure how others rate these so highly as comfortable. I will be returning this pair of shoes.
