This is my second pair of these after wearing out the first. They're my go-to casual sneaker. Super comfortable - not a lot of support, but very light weight. There's not many cute sneakers for wide feet so I was really happy to find these! I'm normally an 8.5 or 8w and got these in an 8w, but kind of wish I'd sized up to an 8.5w.

I normally wear an 8 W, I ordered 8.5 W and my toe is just about squashed. These run very small, seems like a full size! They are super comfortable and light and I'm disappointed, but I'll return for a larger size and re-review.

Just what I was looking for - a pair of slip on sneakers that I can wear in daily activities. I do not think these offer enough support for gym activities, but are great for leisure. I normally wear size 9M, and that is what I ordered. They fit great. I like the softness of the upper and the ease of putting them on.

My third pair of NB FuelCore nergize. NB is best fit for my moderately wide feet. I wear these in strength training and low impact cardio workouts. Super lightweight. Easy to slip on and off as the laces aren’t really functional.

These are great for transitioning away from or balancing with true barefoot shoes. I’ve embraced the reasoning of barefoot shoes, but sometimes need a little cushion for those rocky trails, or as I age and lose the fat pad on my sole (but no where else!). These aren’t terribly cute, but stretchy upper allows for weird knobby toes and bunion, lacing is redundant.

These are super comfortable right out the box. I got them in the mail and wore them to the gym within the hour. No breaking in at all! Theyre super lightweight which makes them great for training at the gym. I definitively wouldn't run outside in these. I have size 9 feet that arent narrow but are more narrow than most, which makes finding sneakers a challenge. These fit perfect with no sliding around while I'm training.

I love these shoes. They are great for running and resistance/weights. They are flat so you are able to get good balance and grip. They are extremely comfortable and light weight. Obsessed!!!

I love these shoes! So comfortable. The color makes them fun to wear and has really encouraged me to get out and walk more often :) I feel like I glow in the dark at night, too.

These are super cute and comfortable but they really don't have much support and wouldn't be great for high impact.

I have a very narrow foot (AAA), however, I can lace these sneakers up and my feet stay put! They are great for city walking! Went walking on a moderate trail with them--- not great traction. Very comfortable.

Blissfully comfortable! I walk -- a LOT -- and these shoes may just be the most comfortable pair I own right now. They're perfect for summer -- light, slip on, and OK without socks.

I really wanted to love these, but sadly they weren’t what I was looking for. I tried 3 pair of dark soles NB shoes. These were a contender until I wore them around the house for a while. They just don’t have enough support in the forefoot for me. Otherwise I think they would have been fine. My foot runs narrow with a high arch, narrow heel, wider forefoot. I normally wear a 9.5 but generally need at least a half size larger in an athletic shoe. I ordered a 10M first but they were too short. The 10.5 was better but I still had the forefoot burning sensation in my larger left foot. I liked that the back of the shoe was not cut high so would seem comfy for wearing all day. For some wearers, these shoes may be perfect.

I got these shoes to wear at the office with scrubs. I typically wear a 9.5-10 wide width, I purchased the 9.5 wide in the color black/black and they fit well and look good. They are very light, but they don't have much support or cushion. There is a memory foam footbed which is nice at first but just too thin to make much of a cushion when wearing for an extended length of time. With that said, they are comfortable enough for me to wear for a full 8 hour day in which I alternately sit and stand, and I've gotten compliments on how they look. The way they slide on and off is very convenient. On one day I had forgotten my gym sneakers and decided to wear these shoes for an aerobics class. They really don't have enough support for lateral movements and I felt like my foot might bust out of the shoe. They might be ok for something like weight training where you aren't moving your feet a whole lot, but these are definitely not for any type of high impact or vigorous exercise. I'm not sure that these will hold up well over time, but I do like them for just walking around and wearing at the office, they feel like wearing slippers.

for lounge around shoes they would be great. I needed more support for walking and standing, so I returned them

These soft, fabric sneakers are so stylish in the photos, but I don't find them sturdy enough in-person. Just by walking around my house, I could start to see the outline of my big toe through the fabric; it didn't instill confidence. They were also very small -- I'm always a 7.5 in athletic shoes and these felt a full size too small.

Loved the look of these shoes, but the opening was not wide enough to comfortably get my foot into it. I have wide feet and ordered a wide. They looked like they should fit me if only I could have gotten my foot through the opening to get them on. I find this is often an issue with wide width slip on shoes in this style. There needs to be more "give" to get them on for the wide with folks.

These sucked. I’m a major athletic shoe officianado so I know good shoes when I feel them. I tried to find a shoe that was easy to wear to work or running errands, nothing crazy. I ended up wearing them on a 1mile walk and my feet literally hurt when I got back. I am new to New Balance and will likely not order another pair. The irony is that there are tags all over the shoes that say “I’m so comfortable”. It’s a lie.

This shoe was really cute, and sizing seemed good and comfortable. However, the description says it has a removable insole, but it does not. The memory foam insole is glued into the shoe. I need a removable one and looked for that specifically in the description.

I have always worn a size 9 in New Balance shoes. I noticed when I removed them from the box that they appeared small. I had difficulty getting them on without socks and there was no way I would be able to with them. I also noticed that the inside seams rubbed both feet on the outside of each shoe. In addition my toes touched the end of the shoe in both shoes.
I love the style and appearance, but was afraid that the seam problem would not go away and that it could be difficult to get the correct size. I'll try them in the New Balance shoe store.
