I was looking for a shoe that worked for daily use in the office and also for quick runs after and this shoe fit the bill. This shoe is a good shoe!

These are my favorite and most comfortable shoes. Great fit, long lasting, and they hold up to a wide variety of workouts including vigorous mountain hikes.

My husband has very wide feet and it is very difficult to purchase them anywhere except for Zappos! Your shoes are good quality, comfortable and very stylist too!

The shoe is very lightweight and fits well. It's doesn't have the quality feel of a Brooks Beast or a New Balance 1340 / 990 but it appears to be a good shoe for the price.

I've worn New Balance ( Size 10, 4E) for years. My feet needed the SL2 last with a wide toe box, and these became hard to find and expensive. Initially I tried the Gel Venture 6 at Size 10. These were pretty good but rubbed a bit on my smaller toes under certain circumstances, so when I needed a new pair I went up half a size to 10 1/2. These fit perfectly and are very comfortable.

I haven't run in them yet but they feel great up to this point. The laces are a little flimsy, though.

This sneakers are what I have been looking for. I do a lot of walking and was looking for good pair that feels good at the end of the walk. These sneaker felt great as soon as I put them on. Perfect fit.

Bought this sneakers for my youngest son. He loved how they felt on his feet to the point where he wanted to keep them on all night. Went running in them this morning and they were very comfortable.

These shoes are quite comfortable, having some give while supporting my foot. They accommodate my brace which is a difficult fit to find, and considering that I am a woman forced to wear men's shoes (because of the brace on one foot and an orthotic on the other), they are reasonably stylish.

I waited several weeks before posting this review to see how the shoes felt on my feet and I'm here to say these shoes are great. I bought these to walk around my 1.7M sq ft warehouse for work. Concrete floors, climate controlled and I walk about 6 miles a day. These shoes have stood up to the challenge.
I have BIG FAT feet like Sasquatch/Fred Flintstone and ordered these in a 13 4E and have zero regrets. Plenty of room in the toe box and the gel heel feels great all day. The typical swelling of the feet through the day doesn't seem to be an issue with these shoes as with other shoes and boots I have. They are light and feel cool on the feet with excellent breathability. Overall I am extremely pleased and only time will tell about the longevity.

Great shoe for the right price. Been wearing these since the Venture 6 edition. The toe did start to separate on one of the shoes but I feel this was just an isolated incident. Zappos customer service took care of the problem immediately and I am very happy with my purchase.

Very comfortable. These are worn daily for me and I stand quite a bit. I really enjoy the arch support and fitted with stretchy laces these shoes are just great.
