Living with a bunion and hammer toe can create issues finding shoes that fit comfortably. Per other reviews, I decided to try these and I am not disappointed. They're comfortable with ample support. I'm glad I ordered two pairs, because I will be wearing these daily!

I Purchased these as a replacement for the 1540 which fell apart on me completely after just three months. They are a softer feel and seem a bit wider in the toebox, but are very comfortable. And I think they will last longer as the fabric seems stronger. I use custom orthotics in my shoes so the amount of support isn’t that important. I agree with another reviewer that they look kind of clunky but that doesn’t bother me as they are very comfortable.

Shoes fit well but I had to change out the inner soul on left shoe because of my hammer toe. It's a little thicker than my 940 NB and my toe was rubbing the top of shoe. Can't seem to get the 940's so I ordered the 840's and they are comfortable. They are not as supportive as the NB 940's so my foot still overpronates. I wish Zappos would re-supply the 940's in 8 1/2 W or at least let me know that they are discontinued.

These didn’t work for me - the tongue is really tall and although you can get it well secured so that it doesn’t slip off to the side, it looks weird and bulky. I also found the toe box to have too much room, especially height, which is maybe the first time ever having that problem as someone with wide feet and large, full length orthotics. They seem nicely cushioned and the light color is attractive.

These shoes fit my extra wide feet perfectly! The gray is very bright - almost white. I was looking for the darker gray that I have in 840 v4. I hope NB will offer the 840 v5 in a darker gray, soon. :)

Disappointed that I will have to return them. I tried various types of socks but they all bunched up under my toes and hurt my toes.
I'd also recommend:
Possibly Fila or Nike.

definitely for the runner. I bought for extra cushion and for walking and running shoes typically have been the best bet. Toe box too big. Returned

I really liked these however the toe box was a little too wide even with my bunion. They felt too bulky for me.

Right sneaker is extremely baggy and loose at the arch area. Left sneaker was better. Sneaker ran large.

The color is an odd grey blue. Does not look like the photo but it was the only one with my size. And they are overpriced for sure.

The shoes ate great, the only thing is I order my size and they feel big, but they are comfortable.

I was desperate and ordered 1 wide and should have ordered 2W but you did not have any at time of purchase. Always order your correct width!@

This is a good shoe but the 840v4 fit my large bunion foot better. Every time I find a shoe that fits, you discontinue the version.

Could of probably taken 10 1/2 but New Balance doesn't make a 10 1/2? Eleven would be too large. It seems to run short to my old 840's as they are a perfect fit. But I need alignment to keep my foot in place and wide seems to be correct size in width.

I think they look better online than in person though, and prob run a little snug.

The toe box and heel are generous enough for my custom orthotics. I'm not quite sure what's different about v5 but it works for me. It actually feels better with my orthotics in than the insole it came with because I was getting some rubbing from the inner aspect of the heel collar where it meets the tongue.

The only problem I have is there tighter than other new balance sneakers. Hoping there feel better after a few days .
