These shoes are great for my daily workout. They are light so they don't weigh my feet down. I have a very wide foot and this shoe accommodated it easily.

They are true to size. My foot runs narrow and I got these in a medium. They are a little roomy in the heel but they work. Not super cushiony feeling. Style is nice but nothing exceptional. The reason I got them is because I cover a lot of miles with my dog, mostly on streets. I’m flat footed and knock kneed. I have a lot of problems with my knees and lower back, foot pain. Everything was hurting when I purchased these. I have put 60 miles on them on the last 2 weeks. Nothing hurts. So for style I’d give these shoes a “meh”. For function they get a “ Yay!”

As many of the reviews stated, right out of the box comfort. I usually wear a wide width, but ordered the medium width and was perfect. Sizing for me with most sneakers , I always need to go up one full size. I did with these and perfect fit. I do a lot of walking and happy to have a comfortable and supportive fit.

It's quite purple, even more than the picture shows, but a cute and comfortable shoe. Great arch support, light and breathable fabric from the ties to the toe.

These are light-weight shoes, nice for running about town but I prefer more arch support and cushioning. These have a place as a casual shoe in my wardrobe, and they are cute. The fit is fine, like nearly all New Balance.

I usually buy a half-size up on New Balance, but after reading other reviews, I took a chance on my regular size, 9N. It fits well, though is not the easiest to put on because the laces come so far up the front of the shoe. The toe box is quite wide and comfortable, and I like how lightweight it is. If you have a high arch, however, this shoe is probably not for you. Overall, the shoe is appropriate for light exercise but not serious walking or hiking. I use it when exercising on my elliptical or running errands. Overall, it's not the best looking sneaker but will do. I'm keeping them but would not order this style again.

Very comfy. Toe box is a bit narrower at the front than other New Balance wide shoes. Nice for walking around the neighborhood. So comfy, that I bought a second pair. I do have foot issues, and almost always replace the insole on my shoes with a better one.
I'd also recommend:
Vionic, but not for their sport/exercise shoes.

This shoe is so attractive and it had the width I needed for my toes. My heel did not slip at the back. The problem I had is that New Balance has put a higher heel on the soul of the shoe that threw my natural walking gait off and made my back hurt. I was so sad to have to return this otherwise comfortable and good looking shoe.

I ordered these in an 8M which is my regular shoe size. My big toe came to the end of the toe box, so I returned them for an 8.5. They felt a tiny bit snug in the medium width, but I'm sure they will stretch to be just right. I expect this next pair will be very comfortable.

I love New Balance shoes and these are no exception. I've had many pairs over the years. My only observation on this pair is that I searched for the color brown and these shoes popped up. Since it's often hard to tell color by looking at the computer monitor, I trusted they were brown and ordered them. They are in fact more of a purple than brown. I'll still keep them, but definitely not the color I was expecting.?

Nice shoe. They are stylish (imho), and pretty comfortable. I wore them to work for 8+ hours the day after I got them in the mail, and my feet were a little sore at the end of the day. It makes sense since I am still breaking the shoes in. I am happy with this purchase.

This shoe has a generous toe box, which I need. It has a simple, clean look that I was looking for. The support is just okay. Without a place lock, the shoe would slip off. I wish NB made the more trendy styles in 2E. I have to choose between comfort and style.

I really like these shoes, but feel it doesn't have a lot of support for my ankles.

Very comfortable shoe. However, it does run short and the toe box is wide. New Balance shoes usually fit my narrow foot better than this style does.

This shoe was very comfortable. The only problem was I need more solid and higher sole for my feet. I really wanted to keep them, but I couldn't.

These are cute all round walking shoes and I like the neutral color. But I returned the 9 1/2 for a 10N, which I never wear. They run very short, but are good for narrow feet.
