I bought this shoe to replace my everyday wear shoes and generally I like it. I purchased size 9.5. Not sure if it is because I still need to break the shoes in, but top fees a little snug. Not sure if I should have gone with wide version? Biggest frustration is that the ends of the tongue curl in so you can see my white socks on top. I am hoping that will get better as I break in the shoe more. I do love the color and the tread. Also excited to see how the toe protection rim works because my last pair of New Balance my toe broke through the mesh. I think I was approaching 5 years though - which is pretty good for a shoe that I wear everyday!

I use the shoes for hiking. The shoes are plasticky and don't fit as well as previous products.

These were substantially more narrow than my New Balance 840 v4 in the same size and width (4E). The length felt about 1/2 too short also but maybe this was due to the shoe being too narrow. I placed these sole to sole with my 840's and the sole was nearly 1/2 inch narrower on the Dynasoft Nitrel V4 compared to the 804 v4. I wish the same size and width fit the same across all of the New Balance shoes.

Bought the wide shoe but could still barely get my foot in it. Had to return it.

They are squeaky, they are my 3rd pair in this style and I can't wear them at work cause they are to loud.

Great look. Toe box felt small despite EE. Cushion is pretty firm. Not for me.

Usually purchase 993's and this shoe is not as comfortable and does not have the same support. On the other side, it is less expensive. In future I would rather purchase the more expensive shoe for comfort.

Not as comfortable as I thought they would be. It's winter here now and the shoes don't hold any warmth.

Under cushioned and not very supportive. The cushion in the heel lasted only 3-4 months before it was essentially bottomed out.

I love the styling and general fit of these shoes. I ordered the 4E extra-wide and the fit was perfect. Unfortunately the insole is a very thin piece of foam with no arch support and no cushioning. I'm really surprised New Balance would put such a cheap insole with no support in a great looking shoe like this. Unfortunately I had to return it because my feet starting hurting within minutes of trying them on.

My husband loves New Balance but he is having a hard time finding them wide enough this year. His current NB shoes are 2E but these 4E are too narrow.

I hve your top of the line which fit perfectly in a 10 D. I bought the same in this, returned it for at 1-.5 and lastly for a 10.5 4w
It still is to tight in the toe box.
I should have stayed with the top of the line instead of trying to save some money

Completely different than what I ordered very disappointed

I've owned 2 other pairs and they have been great and lasted about 6 months each but these ripped after only 2 trips. I use them to hike out to my favorite fishing spot which is mostly on the sand with a really small amount of bushes and the smallest branch ripped right through the toe box. Not very durable for the price.

Not even going to try to use them. Will go back to the 993 or try the 877.

First off there size 10.5 in US mens is more like a size 8.5. Next you must have an extremely narrow foot to even get in to this shoe I'm very thankful they refunded my money upon return of this product. Thirdly, these are made in Vietnam and NOT the USA.

I’ve had these for a few months after purchasing for trail running. The first 2 or 3 runs were great but after that, the shoes progressively got worse.
Cushion is terrible and doesn’t last. This shows literally started misforming after 10 miles.
completely dissatisfied.

Fit well, I had sleeve surgery and have lost 100 lbs. Feet are a little narrower so probably next shoes look for 2E probably.
