Fit well, good stability and look great. However, they seem very heavy and stiff (size 13). Bought a pair of NB 880v11 and they are much better in terms of weight and feel.

Fit and size were accurate. Reasonably comfortable all day. But the ugliest sneakers I’ve ever owned.

Didn't fit my foot. Too heavy. Really liked the 1080 until the last versions with the tacky plastic tab on the heel. It rubs my ankles. Will try another shoe similar to the 1080.

The shoes fit alright, however I tried for three days to wear them in the house and the soles of these shoes are so hard and inflexible I could have been wearing wooden clogs. As a shoe made for walking and for orthopedic wear these are not acceptable. They are being returned.

I was looking for a shoe built on the SL 2 last which promised a wider and taller toe box. I tried NB 847v4, size 13 4E, in Artic white and they were perfect. Because of the great fit, I got the same shoe in black and the toe box was uncomfortably less wide and less tall than the white pair. I exchanged the black for another black and this pair was a little better but not as comfortable as the Artic White.

The fit was fine, but the box toe was enormous, even for my big feet. It felt and looked like astronaut shoes.

IT IS HARD TO RATE A SHOE BEYOND SAYING THAT IT IS PROBABLY A SIZE TOO SHORT. ALSO THE COLOR SEEMS TO BE MUCH LIGHTER THAN THE PHOTO (CLOSER TO WHITE THAN GRAY). I TRULY LIKE NEW BALANCE SHOES BUT THIS ONE WAS NOT FOR ME.

the fit was as i needed however they are way too stiff for my needs.these are more like bricks than anything. I could'nt get used too the roll bar in the back of the shoe. If you need a shoe with max support then these will probably be good for you. if you need more comfort I suggest going with the NB 840v4's. Much more comfortable shoe with the same fit. I reviewed this shoe previously but did not wear them too work before I did. big mistake. that's why I am writing this followup review.

The shoe has a lot of movement up and down against the heel, causing discomfort. Also there is a piece of plastic that forms the heel section that has a noticeable edge on the inside of the shoe that further aggravates the rubbing discomfort. Returning these.

The shoe was very comfortable but I chose to return them because I was not pleased with the workmanship specifically on the cloth coverings.

They were too big basicically too wide in the front but over all just too big. We shipped them back Feb 22, 2021. We are waiting for a reply from Zappos that you got them and refunded our money.

The 6E and toe box was definitely very wide. It was almost too wide. The size was larger as I wear an 8.5 and it was a half inch longer. The fit was not good, it seemed to be uncomfortable right from putting them on. The arch support was digging into my foot a bit. They looked great and they certainly were very wide which is not easy to find in any New Balance these days. I thought about going down to an 8 but wasn't sure whether the 6E would still be too wide and wasn't sure about going down to a 4E to try that. Too much effort to be having to try all kinds of odd sizings.

The shoe was ordered in the correct size, along with another pair of that size, but these are too short - my toes hit the end.

I have neuropathy in my feet and find it difficult to find a shoe that is comfortable. These shoes are extremely heavy even with a different insole. They are built-up more on the sides which rubs my ankles more than normal. The foot bed is a little too wide and me foot seems to slide around a little more than it should. I can't wear them for more than just a few minutes and off they come.

I have a narrow foot and I have purchased a few B Width sneakers for New Balance. This one felt wider and gapped more than the others.
