I have always worn an 8 1/2 wide shoe. The first pair I bought were that size. They are too short but I kept them anyway. This pair I ordered a 9 wide. Perfect except now I have heel slippage. I want to love these shoes but I won't be able to wear them for exercise only for just around the house. They are super comfy but I wish the heel didn't slip.

Different type of New Balance shoe I have had yet, definitely very comfortable especially in the wide version.

They fit great. Normally buy a size 8 and these fit just fine. Not the most comfortable. They feel pretty firm just standing around. Very light weight.

I have had 2 previous pairs of the Foam Roav's and I absolutely LOVE them. I was excited about the new design and I ordered the same size I had previously ordered, but the new pair was VERY snug. I was very disappointed, and I knew that if I went up a size they would be too long.

Too much foam- shoe feels u stable. Foam wears down after awhile and feels like no support. Otherwise live the color and look

These shoes are nice, they just don't hold up very long if you're wearing them regularly. I already burnt out the first pair I bought 4 months ago. They are super comfortable, and the style is nice and sporty. I'm hoping this pair lasts a little longer. All in all, a good shoe.

Shoe is excellent in all respects except.. since there is no "tongue" to pull up and away while putting shoe on, a shoe horn is a necessity. The built up fabric behind the heel also contributes to this. Which means that any sock foot pulls back tight against the toe while putting shoe on.
If the tongue was normal and could be lifted up, access into the shoe would be solved!

I LOVED these shoes but they were a lot lighter in color than I thought! I needed a bit more of a darker blue

I love these shoes! They are stylish and very comfortable. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that they are a little wide on my feet. Overall great product.

As an ICU nurse I've gone through several pair of shoes, including HOKA's - and then I found these. Reasonably priced and super comfy! my only complaint is that the shoe laces come undone often, because they are a slippery material; I don't want to be touching my shoes in this line of work... but still love the shoe and can change the laces easily.

Looking back I wish I did the white bottoms instead of the brown. Very comfortable shoe that's easy to put on and take off. The back looks a little weird but it looks pretty much like that in the photos.

I've had these shoes for about two weeks now, and they have been a life-saver. I work in Health care, and I'm on my feet, running around all day 5-7 days a week and these shoes have been amazing so far. I actually plan on buying a second pair to have handy for when my current ones eventually meet their demise. My only complaint was a shipping issue, which delayed my delivery date by 5 days, otherwise I have no complaints.

These shoes are flat out comfortable! Ordered 1/2 size up and loved them so much I bought 3 more pairs in case they aren't around the next time I need shoes!

I love the shoes . The design , the fit , everything . There is one thing that is major for me personally , the back part of the shoe is not engineered very well and the material and thread used is awful, I keep bleeding and having to put bandaids on every time I wore the shoe, it's the little flap that comes all the way up in the Achilles area . Once that gets fixed , I'lol continue buying .

I bought 2 pairs of these and absolutely love them. However they top shoelace loop has broken and I am devastated! I can't find my receipt from 2 months ago so I tried to have it repaired at a cobbler but they couldn't do it. I'm sooooooo sad and wish NB would fix this issue bc the more I'm reading I see it wasn't just mine!

After years of swearing by Adidas, I had found some all-yellow foam roavs and had to have them. At the time, I was working 55 hours a week on my feet. They are the most comfortable tennis shoe I've ever worn. I wore them so much, in fact, that in about 5 months I've got toe holes- which is disappointing, but I put those babies through it. I plan on ordering another pair very soon!

I have had multiple pairs of this particular shoe is multiple colors. I love them for my daily treadmill workouts as well as going out on casual walk abouts. Super supportive and comfortable. This pair was the first one where the fabric on the inside of the shoe on the back of my heel wore thin and then ripped. Doesn't make the shoe unwearable as long as I have socks on, but not sure why this one in particular wore out so fast. Also, in case there is any debate about the color of these, its definitely a light purple/lavender color with light blue accents. I thought they were gray on my computer screen but liked the purple enough to keep them.

I love these sneakers. They are extremely comfortable and light weight. I can wear them all day with no issues. BUT they do have a flaw, the top lace loop ripped when I went to tie them up so now I need to see if I can get it fixed. Otherwise, you can't wear them. So very sad. Tried contacting New Balance support but did not have any luck.

Your “Recommended fit” was wrong again!
Now I have to return these shoes and hope the appropriate size is still available.

I love the comfort. They are amazing. My heart has broken twice though when the shoe lace loops have broken. I have sewn them back together, but for the price I would really hope they would be sewn strong enough to withstand normal wear and tear.

I ordered a half size larger from Zappos because New Balance's website was out of the 8D. I wish this shoe came in more colors. It's the right midpoint of stylish and comfort. So many of NB's shoes can be very comfortable but look clunky, and so many brands look stylish but are actually bad for your feet. These shoes deliver. I find that, in these more form-fitting shoes, I need to go up a half size or wear very thin socks.

I really liked the style, color and weight of these shoes but even with a wide they were too tight fitting. My foot felt like it was in a vice. I've had NB wide in the past, maybe it's this style but sadly I am returning them.
