The shoes themselves are super comfortable and nice fitting but walking in them just gives me the worst blisters with the back being the way it is

Looks - 5 stars
Comfort - 4 stars
True to size - 3 stars
Advertised as "wide"/ accuracy - 2 stars
I purchased these shoes with the impression that they would offer extra space in the toes. It was advertised as "wide" which someone with my foot condition needs to reduce injury. I also used my actual measured foot size yet, with the lack of wiggle room in the toes, I now wish I'd purchased at least a 1/2 size larger.

I had high hopes for these shoes because of the foam soles. However, the wide is not wide enough. The toe box is narrow and the fabric presses down on the top of my toe. It would soon wear through. Very disappointed.

This is the second pair I've had to throw out because the top right lace hook has torn. They don't get tons of wear and tear but while trying to tie the laces, the cloth on the hook tore right off. I love these shoes for their comfort and style but they need to work on the quality of the lace hooks.

I had another pair in a different color and same size that fit fine. However the pair I ordered on-line and returned was too small. I loved the bright purple color. Very disappointed.

I had to send these back. While the length was fine, the toebox is "tight". The cushion in the heel is fantastic, but the toebox comfort made me send them back.

The shoes were too small. When ordering, get a larger size.

I loved the colors. It said "wide" but it was too small. I loved how it felt but by the end of the day my foot was aching. Cali from customer service she sent me a return label and said, as soon as they receive the shoes they will refund me.

I didn't find these to be very comfortable. My heal kept slipping. I tried a gel insert, but still didn't help. I have a narrow foot, so it may just be me. I'm disappointed. I really like the way the shoe looks.

My daughter liked these, but the heel sits back in the shoe and is just odd and does not fit the heel/foot right.

Size up half a size. I'm a 7.5 and they were definitely too small for comfort.

The first time I ordered this shoe I received men's 8 which I returned. The second time I ordered black with blue. The shoes are blue not black. They feel very comfortable and I like that the tongue is connected to the shoe, however, there is not a hole for the shoelace in the same place as all the other NB sneakers I have been wearing for years and years.

Was very disappointed as these are my second pair. There is redundant material in the toe on one shoe which is very annoying and not really fixable. The other shoes toe was partly separated so I fixed that with superglue. Otherwise the shoes are super comfortable. Quality has taken a backseat maybe?

I like the shoes but they are tight for being a wide size. Not happy how they fit but it is all that I have at this time.

I guess I didn't realize that "bootie" meant no tongue or ability to adjust the shoe across the top of your foot. This type of shoe never fits my feet. Had to return. Generally, I love my New Balance shoes. I've had too many pairs to count. This is the first time I had an issue.

I purchased the Olive Green Colorway. They are not olive like the in the picture. They are a lighter shade of green. The shoe is very comfortable and true to size. Just wish they looked like the picture.

The New Balance tag on the front, under the bottom lace, scrunches up when the laces are drawn tighter. As a person with a narrow foot, I didn't like this look.

My son loves New Balances this particular style runs small. He is a size 11/11-1/2 and he needs to get a size 12. I had to return the pair I got for him.

True to size. The stretchy laces don't stay tied well. But I could walk in them all day!

After walking around in them for a bit, I decided to keep them. Then after a few hours of wearing them, the side of the shoe started biting into my left heel. The image on the website shows that the back molded part has ridges (even on the inside). One of these ridges must be too big because it's continuously biting into my heel. Clearly a flaw in the design. Would return if I could. Feel like I wasted my money during a time of inflation where costs are already high enough as it is. I don't have foot issues, nor have I had issues with previous shoes in the same size, so I'm sure this is a design flaw.

These are my work shoes, I work in a warehouse setting 40 hours a week. They are decently comfortable and keep my feet/legs from getting tired throughout the day. My only issues is that #1 the laces do not stay tied and #2 the laces are so long I have to tuck them back into the tops of the shoes. It drives me insane, I'm constantly retying them. Other than those 2 things I really enjoy these!
