I have bought this shoe again and again and again for over 15 years and many model iteration. I had Plantar Fasciitis and the Podiatrist told me he could either build me expensive custom orthotics or I could start wearing good shoes. His recommendation was US made New balance for athletic shoes and Rockport for other shoes. I have worn the New Balance ever since. No more Plantar Fasciitis just comfortable feet. The shoe has been well made and dependably sized and made throughout all of its iterations over the years. The quality is excellent and consistent. I mail ordered this latest pair from the factory because of the pandemic restrictions. It fit and was comfortable as expected. This is the only athletic shoe I will wear. It is made in USA and there is no need for trial and error in getting the right fit. It fits. It works. It is tough and well made. Well worth the money.

I am a former runner that became sidelined due to hip replacement surgery in 2011. I switched to Spinning, Peloton , Elliptical etc at the gym. Due to COVID-19 the Health Club was forced to close. I started walking outdoors with all purpose shoes that I wore in the gym. I always wore New Balance shoes on the roads whether daily running or in road races. Due to COVID-19 all shoe stores were closed. I ordered my New Balance Shoes on-line and chose the model type per the description for the shoe. The shoes arrived within 4 days. Good looking and after lacing them they fit perfectly. I have been using them walking and I have started running short distances. They are comfortable and provide excellent cushioning.

I have wide feet with issues with my arches. I have custom arch supports and with this particular shoe I have the best support. I have tried many different shoes over the years and these have worked the best for my feet issues.

Very reluctantly started running again once I had to start working from home. I had an older pair of NB 777's (I think) but needed a new pair. These are probably the most comfortable sneakers I've had in a really long time. The only watch out is they are a little heavier than I was expecting, certainly heavier than my last pair

I typical purchase these shoes every-time in need new ones. Work and hold up very well. Only issue I had was one side of one side of the shoe did not have the holes punched out to allow me to lace them up.

I have very hard to fit 8.5 EE flat feet and the only brands that tend to fit are Rockports for shoes and NB for sneakers. And as far as NB sneakers these are one of the most comfortable pairs of NB sneakers that I have ever ordered, so I ordered another. If your feet are hard to fit, some will be comfortable and some won't which is the benefit of ordering from Zappos- you can return for free and I have to say that I keep returning until I hit it---as many times as it takes, and this time I hit the right pair FOR ME.
I'd also recommend:

Almost perfect. I had a custom orthotic made for the left shoe. Quite comfortable but a little too narrow (I ordered a men's size 7. EEEEEE. I guess that is the widest shoe factory run made. My feet are 8" long and 4" wide. And since I'm not diabetic insurance will not cover custom made shoes, I have been wearing New Balance shoes for over 30 Years, always 7-6E made on the SL2 last. Best shoe on the market for me.

I am 61 and walk 3-4 miles a day as my exercise. My arches have fallen and I have very wide feet. Simply, outstanding support and cushion, best purchase I have ever had regarding footwear. Removed pain in walking and recovery. Really a miracle shoe. If you have wide feet and require support, these are for you!

Overall good, but as others have said the tong is a bit short. I'm unable to jog anymore but I find these shoes good for walking since they give my feet and knees the extra padding they need. I've bough New Balance for years since they cater to a wider foot and are American made for the most part.

I walk 5 miles a day in rough terrain and have had various ankle injuries over the years. This is the only shoe I will wear! It keeps me from causing further injury and is key to my fitness. I have very narrow feet also and fit is perfect. Online delivery was flawless and speedy.
