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!

Super cute. Wish the wide was a bit wider, hoping they will stretch a little. Overall a great shoe.

They are so cute and well priced. I got the bright blue and it’s perfect to wear with lots of outfits. My heel slips a little.

Unfortunately, these shoes are super narrow. I normally wear a size 6.5W in my other new balance shoes. I sized up here the first time with a 7W from recommendations. Those fit great length wise, but my toe was visible from the top and pushing on the material. They were too narrow, even as a wide! So I ordered again with the 7.5 W and they fit in width but were a bit too long. I was willing to live with that as they look so cool. But I wore them for an hour or so outside and it was rubbing my ankle pretty bad. Such a bummer! Well, they now look really good on my narrow footed friend.

Super cute and bouncy, but it had a quirky fit for me so I had to return them. The size seemed right, but the back didn't hug my ankle, so it slipped when I walked. Also, after trying two different pairs I've concluded that the fixed tongue doesn't work for my feet. I need a shoe with an adjustable tongue so I can regulate the fit a little better.

Very strange. I have roavs in two other colors and ordered the same size in these. The elastic under the laces is much tighter in this color. I ordered a half size up to see if it helps, or maybe it’ll stretch out over time but right now I’m not sure on these.

These shoes are beautiful. I love the teal color. I always get a size 8 in tennis shoes. The length was good but the heel slips when I walk. I tried three different styles/thickness of socks, including no socks at all and they still slip. No go for me. Fit is odd.

The fit was fine. I just didn’t care for the pinkish color once I saw it.

I love the look of this shoe and was very disappointed that it doesn't feel good when I'm on my feet.. there's no give no Cush and feels as if I'm walking on concrete. I suppose it's supposed to feel so firm for support but it's too much support for me.. I see new balance shoes every where they are clearly very popular.. I was disappointed they just don't work for me.

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.

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.
