They hurt my feet, the insole is too thin with no padding. The D width fits like a B width and the toe box is tight. Didn't like anything about them. I bought them for walking and they hurt the soles of my feet walking in my home on carpet within a few minutes. I used to wear nothing but New Balance shoe most of my life and they were very comfortable. This is the 2nd pair I've tried in the last 5 years that have a very thin insole with a hard sole. I won't be trying anymore New balance shoes.

The shoe was supposed to be a "walking" shoe. It is SO UNCOMFORTABLE!!! The shoe runs quite small and there is little-to-no padding at all in the foot bed. I have tried many different inserts in the shoes, with no luck. Terribly uncomfortable!! I hope I can send them back!

Runs too small. Other NB sneaks in same size fit so much better. These are way too snug!

I love my Freshfoam New Balance that are actually wide, actually 2E. Are they men's or what? The pair I bought say 2E but they are barely a D if that. Bummed out.

The shoes squeaked when I walked and don't like that at all. Sent them back for a refund. Will try again, but will buy them from a store where I can try them on first.

See above. Have bought NB for 15 or more years. Have ordered 4 different pair of shoes NONE fit right. So disappointed. Foam is just weird. Two pair felt too long. One pair too narrow. Then the foam pair.......

For a double wide shoe, this was narrower than the wide shoe. Too short and too tight. Would not recommend this shoe.

The shoes were fine fit and color-wise, but really, Zappos, can you not even attempt to hide the fact that they were used? If you can't clean the soles or provide the original shoebox/packaging, why not 1) donate the used shoes or 2) label them as open box and sell for a reduced price. You are not thinking about the customer and their excited anticipation of New Shoes! and the let down when they receive obviously used shoes (for a cost of over $100). Much respect to Best Buy, who labels open boxes. The "Hassle Free" box you provide - not buying that shtick.

This shoe felt a good half to one size too short. And there was no support in the toe box area----just mesh that didn't feel "secure". The insole is comfortable. May be good enough for around the house but not to do any kind of exercise because of the lack of "solidness" in the forefoot area.

I sent these shoes back because I have a high instep. A strange combination of a narrow foot and a high instep causes me to shop only at zappos. I couldn't get my foot in these shoes. That is unusual since I bought New Balance before, but these didn't work for me.

The left sneaker fit perfectly. The right sneaker's heel was too wide. Too bad. I liked these.

This shoe is very cute, but style matters little with athletic shoes if they are not comfortable. There is nothing comfortable about this shoe. Even sitting they do not feel good. I've been a long time New Balance fan but these are being returned.

more than a whole size small. i wear a size 11 in Nikes, Hokas and Asics. with these my big toe is up against the front of the shoe. i think they would be a very comfortable shoe otherwise.
