This is a great shoe and the fact that I can buy them in narrow is a real plus.

I have a wide foot and your shoes offer a selection of widths in most case (mostly boring white). Would like to see a better selection of width in more fashionable styles and colors.

TRIED OTHER "support" sneakers but these are the best for the money. At 6'1'' and 225 lbs. these sneakers give the best stability and support

I wanted an all leather shoe for ease of cleaning to use for walking and going to the gym. I've previously purchased 990s, 624s, and 574s. The 574s make a good "knock around" casual shoe. The 990s are my favorite for walking, but they're pricey and seem to be getting pricier every year. The 624s work great. I wanted to try these, as well. I got the ones in black and white. Nice looking shoe. Wide enough for comfort, good padding, but support is better on the 624s. I put in a well-reviewed aftermarket insole that ran around 21 bucks and had good arch support and that made a big difference, as I have flat feet and plantar fasciitis. With the insoles, these make great walking shoes. I might even try wearing them at work, where I am on my feet all day.

New shoes squeek a little but hopefully that will work out with time. The shoes are very comfortable.

Casual use. Bought through the Norway Maine location, "Made in the USA." Disappointed to find they were made in Indonesia.

Great for wearing to the gym and just everyday wear. Comfortable, and I don't have to wear my inserts with these shoes because the support is fantastic!

Okay, before you buy the product, it must be understood that it will take some extra time to break it in. In fact, it took more time to break these in (about two weeks) than any other shoe I have worn. The shoe doesn't remember the shape of your foot until you have worn them for at least a week and a half. When you are breaking it in, your feet will hurt a little. It's totally worth it though. After a few weeks, I can say that these are the comfiest shoes I have worn. The amount of support is amazing. And I also have to mention that they do seem quite durable, but it will take more time to really see how durable they are. Anyway, very pleased with my purchase, and will probably buy this product again.

I was disappointed with the store being unwilling to exchange the shoes for the correct size
The shoes which you replace them with are a shoe I have used for years and they work well with my lifestyle
Thanks for all your help

This is the shoe I continue to order as it feels great and looks good. This time I did order a half size larger. Not sure why... maybe production has changed or my feet have grown. ?

This shoe is great for foot issues due to diabetes. I wear ortho inserts in my shoes and by ordering the wide shoe, I can use my inserts. Great value at about half of what I usually pay.

I originally bought these shoes just to have as a backup for my workouts at work. However, they were comfortable enough for me that I often wear them all of the time! They seem to be constructed well enough that I would expect them to last for a long while, but admittedly, I haven't had them for too long yet. The price was reasonable so I would recommend them to others that want a good shoe and good price.
