Very nice shoe and is well made. Comfortable and will be my dedicated walking shoes. One would think NB would put decent laces in these expensive shoes. Flimsy ordinary laces. And yes, that does matter to me.

I wear a size 15 B which makes finding decent shoes a choir. These shoes fit great. My brother always raved about New Balance but I never looked into them even when I worked in New England and would stop at their stores at the headquarters in Lawrence, MA. I will definitely be getting another pair of these shoes in the future.

These are insanely comfortable shoes. I ordered my regular size but forgot that I take a half-size smaller in New Balances. Unfortunately my right size wasn't available in my width so I had to send them back for a refund. But I still strongly recommend them for their unparalleled comfort, if your size is available.

This brand 6E width fits well and my feet are not hurting when I walk. They provide all-day comfort and I am glad I got them. The reason for the 4-star overall is dropped one star due to the cost of the shoe. Having larger feet I always have to pay more, but these exceeded the high price I am used to paying for shoes. If the foot pain stays away it will be worth the extra cost and I would then give a 5th star overall.

This pair are fine no noise the last pair I bought from you had a loud squeak in the right shoe god knows why. Was hesitant to buy another pair apparently an assembly problem. They are now work shoes where the noise doesn’t matter.

Exercise, casual wear. I buy New Balance for the quality, feel and MADE IN AMERICA.. I have owned over 30 pairs of these shoes and will buy from them as long as they do not become a WOKE company like Nike. I have thrown everything I had Nike out including over 100 golf balls, hats and shirts.
I suggest New Balance consider this when deciding on selling product and being a company or trying to get involved in the social corruption.

Super comfortable sneaker with a simple but stylish look. Definitely will be buying more colors. A bit pricey but worth the money.

These are the best fitting & feeling sneaker I have ever owned. So much so that I purchase 1-2 pair per year which works out just fine.

Great fit. Very comfortable from the start. Style is OK for what they are - running shoes. New balance has changed the insert that comes in the shoe and it’s much improved. I have been buying a separate orthotics, but with this shoe I no longer need to. I just hope new balance doesn’t mess with / discontinue this design the next time I need a pair.

I have a wide foot and have had trouble recently with New Balance shoes being wide enough in the toes. Although expensive for me, these shoes fit perfectly and were extremely comfortable out of the box. I am very satisfied.

This is my third pair. Bought 2 pair but kept one in reserve. #1 pair's soles are wearing out after about 900 miles on cement sidewalks (120 miles a month for 8 months). Shoe holds up well in Texas heat and occasional rain. After walking in pair #3, I can really appreciate the new soles.

My son recommended these for me - he is a shoe fanatic and knows what is a good buy. After one day of wearing them, I almost forgot that the shoes were new. Highly recommend them.

I love these shoes. Still don't understand why they are so expensive( and getting more so) and don't have a refurbish program for the soles, since the uppers are perfectly fine by the time I wear the soles out.

Thought these would be great. Didn't mind paying extra for made in USA. No arch support. The sole insert in left shoe came out within two weeks.

These are great shoes and they are so comfortable. I always have a hard time getting a good fit because of my short wide feet but these are always great. I am ordering a second pair for when these wear out!
