This shoe not only looks great but is very comfortable on long walks with my dogs.

Great shoe, I work on my feet 12 hours a day as a critical care RN and this shoe keeps my feet feeling as good at the end of the day as they did at the beginning

I like the look and that they are very lightweight. The toe box is too small and tight. I ordered the same size and X-Wide as I always have with NB. This is mislabeled as true fit.

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.

I am returning these shoes only because they are heavier than the others. I need a light weight shoe and bhe others two were better for m.

I love that New Balance carries narrow, stylish athletic shoes. These fit great and are light weight. I plan on wearing them on my vacation but I’m sure I’ll wear them around town as well.

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.

The shoes fit perfectly the first time I put them on. I bought them to replace a previous pair of New Balance walking shoes that also fit perfectly. They are also very lightweight. I've found that New Balance shoes are usually very true to size. I'd highly recommend these shoes.

Unlike the rather comfy 940v3, this shoe runs short and narrow -- my inserts wouldn't fit even though they're 1/2 size smaller.

I don't EVER write reviews...but I thought I would this time :) So I used to be an devoted New Balance customer! That's all I wore for years! Then I discovered Nike and have worn them for about 2 years. I noticed that my feet were beginning to bother me which for me is tell tale sign of needing new shoes. I happened to be away for a weekend in Vacaville, CA and went to the outlet stores. Well I decided to go into the New Balance store and I found these shoes. I tried them on and it felt like I wasn't wearing anything and they were so lightweight. They didn't have them in a color I liked so I came home and looked on here and purchased these ones! SO glad I didn't just settle for another color! Thanks Zappos for coming through!

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 really wanna like the shoe. I really want to want like New Balance fitness walking shoes, but I can't. Every single pair, including this one, falls short. This is a great shoe for wearing around, but not for fitness walking.

I purchased the extra wide and went down 1/2 size of what I usually wear. The shoe was too big. My heels slid up and down while walking. Had to send them back. The color was a deep eggplant/purple, which I liked. The N was kind of a shiny rose color.

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 loved these shoes and gave them a run for the money right away as I had to run through an airport in them first thing. I ordered a 9.5 wide and they fit perfectly. They are very comfortable for a wide foot and the toe room is right what I need it to be. I am always very worried about shoes being wide enough but these are truly perfect. Order your actual size and you will be happy. And, the nice thing is, if you are not, Zappos allows you to send back for free. But no regrets here!

I do a lot of walking and these shoes are great. My other shoes always left my feet aching at the end of the day - but these are so comfortable I ended up buying a 2nd pair.
