Customer Reviews New Balance 940v4

i have tried several of the 940v4 and everyone of them the "tongue" always slides down to the right, no matter how tight you tie the lace

Looking for NARROW shoes -- but the area around the toes/mid-foot was WAY too roomy. I have really thin, bony feet, and this shoe had a lot of empty space, even when the width was suitable, the space above the foot was way too vacant.

First pair were too small despite ordering correct size and my measured feet have not changed. This has happened 3 times now with NB products. I think the quality has definitely suffered. First pair probably had the correct shoe insert in them, but because the shoe was not made to true size, the insert caused a bump at the toe as it buckled. Not wearable. Returned pair for a larger pair. The larger size fit is fine, however there are sharp points on the internal toe support that really hurts my big toe. Becoming very disappointed with NB products.

I have truly been disappointed with New Balance shoes on my last 6 pair. I had to return 2 pair because my normal size 8 were so small my toes touched the end of the shoes. My feet have not changed. Something has changed about the way they are making shoes. The next 2 replacement pair only lasted a few months before wearing through the top. The next 2 pair were too narrow despite ordering the correct width. Now with this pair, 940v4, the first pair had a weird lump at the toe. I think it was the wrong shoe insert and because it was made for a true size 8, it didn't fit in the shoes. My toes touched the end of the shoe, which again is odd because my actual measured foot has not changed. I think they are making the shoes shorter, which caused the insert to not fit correctly. Because I love the shoes and the width is correct, I returned them for a larger size. The larger size fits well, however, now there is something that feels hard and sharp on the side of the big toe. I think it's the edge of the rubber that provides definition for the end of the shoe. I'm going to try wearing them for a few weeks to see if it softens or if I can somehow fix it. I've looked on New Balance website, which is where I typically purchase all my NB shoes, and for 2021, they no longer have any shoes in stock for my extra wide feet. It's hard finding good shoes that do not look hideous for extra wide feet. I hope NB is not discontinuing Extra wide sizes. I don't know where I'm going to find quality shoes with great support for my arthritic feet.

I love NB because they make narrow sizes. However, this style has no arch support and no cushioning. I returned these shoes.

Extremely disappointed. I bought this shoe because New Balance retired my old model, 1260. This is definitely not a good replacement for the 1260. Toe box is very large and makes the shoe feel and look bigger than it is. The shoe insole is extremely stiff and hard - making for an uncomfortable fit.

Big toe stuck out into the material. Never had this happen before on a New Balance.

Did nit like

Didn't even get to wear them. A full size too big, a full size too wide. I did a side by side comparison of my 10w OG New Balance and something changed in the sizing. I put them up against eachother and it wasn't even close. If you're going to get these keep that in mind. The sizing is utter rubbish.

The shoes run a half size big...also the medium is a very generous width. They were comfortable in the house....not a long distance shoe for me.

Sadly, they did not fit my really weird feet had to return them.

After a few weeks of wearing this pair of New Balance I am having pain in my feet. Something is wrong with the over pronation. This is my third pair of New Balance over pronation. Getting the pain back in my feet again. IT IS NOT MADE RIGHT. DO NOT RECOMMEND!

These sneakers were previously worn. There is dirt and something sticky on the bottom.
