I love these shoes. That said it has been very difficult finding the right size. I usually wear 6 1/2 in this style, but am in a 6 in the gray and 5.5 in the black...

Normally wear 9 1/2 half but a 9 fit perfectly. Have to return the 9 1/2. So glad Zappos accepts free returns!!

I am new to arch supports and have had trouble finding comfortable sneakers to fit them in. These do the trick! I am not a wide, but I tried a regular and a wide, with the wide working better. It accommodated the space my high arch and my support insert needed perfectly! I am so happy to find these. I cannot tell you how many sneakers I've tried before to fit in the arch supports with no success. These were definitely worth the wait and the money. They look pretty good too, and are pretty lightweight. I will probably explore the other options New Balance has for tied-sneakers.

It’s difficult for me to transition from Fitflops all summer to closed toes in fall. These shoes are amazingly comfortable. I use them as my walking shoes and highly recommend them. Slip on is faster than my regular lace ups. The insole can be replaced if it wears out before the rest of the shoe or if you want even more arch support.
I'd also recommend:
Fitflops sandals. Hoka walking shoes

Got these for my mom as she was always wearing her older new balances and stepping on the back heel. Now she doesn't have to do that anymore. She says they are super comfy and really happy with them. I can't be more thrilled with this purchase.

These are great for slipping on for a comfortable, supportive shoe in a hurry. I did add some arch support under the insole as they didn't have a sufficient arch originally.

I love these New Balance slip on shoes. I'm in the process of buying my third pair. I already have the light blue and grey. I've worn the grey constantly for two years (they aren't really worn out, but I wouldn't wear them in public). I purchased the light blue last March right before Covid-19 hit. Therefore, I haven't worn them as much because I've been staying home most of the time. Since the weather is getting cooler I'm buying the black. These shoes are so comfortable. I think they look a cute and sporty - normally wear them with sports pants, but I also wear them with jeans. I wish they came in brown. Hint! Hint! This New Balance website is great because if you buy the wrong size or don't like the fit, you can just return them. There is no return fee or postage. Great way to shop on line. Thank you, New Balance.

I love these shoes. I just bought a 2nd pair. I couldn't find the slip ons for quite a while or they weren't to my liking but I really like these. Sizing: I normally wear a 10 medium in sneakers. In these, I wear a 9 wide.

This is my first pair of NB Fresh Foam shoes, and I can’t believe I didn’t know about them before now! They are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. I bought them to keep at my desk, so I could slip them on for walks during my break. But they are so comfortable I ended up wearing them home! Now I need to buy another pair to keep at work! Absolutely love them.

Like many others, I have a foot and Achilles problem and I cannot wear closed-back shoes. I went through SOOO many pairs of similar shoes, none of which felt comfortable or fit properly. The cushioning on the footbed is great, and the insole can be removed for the placement of orthotics. The only downfall that I can see would be for people who need a lot of arch support, and the arch support in this shoe is not real high. For me, they’re perfect!

I am a runner and wear w1080, but at home or when I am out running around it is so convenient to slip this on. I get great support and the fresh foam is amazing for comfort. I never feel feet fatigue in these slip on. Also, I can put my custom orthotic. It does fit a little wide. I am normally 7.5D but I wear 7B in this model.
