These shoes are so comfortable to wear. I purchased for a charity walk, haven't done it yet, but I know they'll be ideal for the terrain I'll be trekking on. I purchased early to break in, no need, but one thing, these shoes are not made to walk on sidewalks. I love love them!

I love these shoes, but they run small. I normally wear and 8.5-9 size, but because they run small I ordered a 9.5 size. However, even the 9.5 were too tight. So I ordered a 10 size which are perfect. They are so comfortable with great support. I wear them all day. I thought that I might need a wide given some of the reviews, but there was no wide available. Luckily, the standard size fit my feet perfectly. Would buy again.

I hope to hike more this year and with a narrow foot, I was told by two friends that your shoes are the best!!

I walk about 5 miles a day and need a good sturdy walking shoe. Since I have wide feet I also need one to accommodate the extra toe room for my big feet. These shoes have been comfortable from the moment I put them on, I definitely would buy again.

I'm wiggling my toes freely inside my new shoes, wearing orthotics and hiking socks, while my heels stay inside the shoe. I can't wait to go for a long walk in these. I know my wide yet short feet will be very happy.

I've never before had sneakers that felt so comfortable the first time I put them on. My orthotics fit well in these shoes. Have worn them in about 10 hikes now, and they still feel great!

I hike/walk with m dog. We put in a lot of miles and it takes me about a year to wear out my sneakers.

Great to find a shoe with a wide enough toe box, that also has plenty of support throughout. Perfect for light hiking and road walking.

Was having back trouble and knew my old shoes were worn out. Since I bought these no more problems! They are soft on the inside but the soles are tougher than regular tennis shoes. Will order again, only from this site.

My wife has a very bad latex allergy and can't wear sneakers. She did a lot of research and looked at NB's policy on natural latex free. We figured we would give them a try, fully expecting to have to return them. She has had them now for 2 weeks and the sneakers do not bother her. She actually loves them and the wide width. She loves the fact that she can take the inserts out! Look like we have finally found a winner!

I have enjoyed my shoes. Recovering from knee replacement I knew New Balance is the only shoe I would get good support and it definitely has. I am a senior citizen and walk with poles. These along with the sturdy made shoes has brought that success. Still getting use to the laces

During this time of restricted socialization, I am walking 7mi. Daily with happy feet. The terrain of the North Coast is challenging for breathing but not for the feet!

These are the best shoes I have found for hiking. Super comfortable. Wore them at Palmetto State Park.

Just what I needed, a walking shoe with support and a waffly bottom that means they won't slip when hiking on trails. I have wide feet and the 2X/WW size was a perfect fit for me.

The fit was perfect for me. I wore these first time all day long at my work.. No problems.. feet felt comfortable. I purchased these because I am walking more often and need to be sure that I have a good walking shoe. Just right for me.

These fit well and are attractive for sneakers. I really appreciate the few companies that still offer 5 1/2 W shoes. That said, I bought my size in a New Balance sneaker without the back and had to return it, as it did not stay on my foot.

I only wear NB shoes, have for years and years. Unfortunately, every time I find the perfect pair, you stop making them. Tried this shoe and love it! Ordering a second pair so when these wear out I'll have a replacement! I wear these for everyday walking (great for travel as well). They look great and feel terrific!
