Customer Reviews New Balance 840v5

Size and fit was good because I was replacing the previous shoe

Excellent fit and comfort from the moment I put them on.

I have been wearing New Balance 840’s for years. This bright blue color is the most interesting one so far. Lots of compliments.

These sneakers are very comfortable and I have problems with my feet.

I was pleased that these shoes fit comfortably as soon as I put them on. My wide feet are difficult to fit.

I work 12 hr shifts. These are the only shoes that can go the distance . I love the shoes but wish the shoe laces were longer as I like to double tie by laces .

These shoes fit well, and I have worn them daily since receiving them. I will order another pair!

I love Zappos, and I love New Balance. I love Zappos because of your great selection and you make exchanges as well as purchases so easy. I love New Balance because their shoes provide a lot of support and stability and they fit my feet--most of the time. I had written a previous review because it seemed like the sizing on 840v5 had changed. And for the version of this shoe that I bought from Zappos that was manufactured in the summer of 2021, it did change. However, I decided to order another pair because my earlier pair did work with larger socks, and to my surprise, New Balance actually shortened the shoe. And it was manufactured in the summer of 2022. I didn't know that New Balance changed the sizing for the same version, manufactured at different times. And so I'll close with another compliment to Zappos. This time, the change in fit worked out for me, but if it didn't, I know I could have returned the shoes. Thank you Zappos!

Due to my own silly vanity at 65 years, I avoided New Balance as an "old person shoe". Ha! My husband bought me a pair of 840's and I LOVE them. So much, I ordered my second pair! My foot has changed and New Balance is my new go to exercise and gone shopping shoe! Thanks to Zappos, I was able to get my size, style and color I wanted!!!

Have had multiple pairs of the 840 over the years. The sneaker get updates (now Version 5), but still my go to for lots of walking and just on my feet all day long! Love them! I wear a wide. New Balance is wonderful for offering different widths. Great fit.

Love the color! Very cute and comfortable.

I needed a flexible cushioned walking shoe with good arch support. This would have fit the bill, but the softer and lighter weight Fresh FoamX880v13 was even better.

Super comfortable!

I used to buy the American made or assembled 940 series. I loved these shoes, and have not bought any others. When they finally wore out, I found only one color in black. So the search was on. I tried four pairs, and finally this 840 seems to be the one. It works in the heel area and toe box. The first day, I had to adjust to having arch support again. The next day, the shoes feel good. I got the pair with the melon trim. I’m almost tempted the get the pair with the dark pink and eclipse colors to alternate. But they are a bit expensive. Still, it might be worth it to take the advice a a reviewer on Zappos who said when you find your shoe, buy another pair since they change the designs often.

My last NB lasted 4-5 years. I knew I needed a new pair since my feet started to hurt again. These are a different style but they make my feet feel so good. When I put them in I feel relief. Good fit, comfort and look.

Comfortable fit, great shoe for running/ daily long walks

These are great shoes!! I have issues with my feet and New Balance is the only brand I can wear without any issue. Super fast shipping as well!

I think I have finally found a walking shoe for my feet! Thank you for your assistance always!

Bought these for my daughter who wears a 6.5 2E. They fit so well with the wider toe base. The color is greasy since most extra wide shoes are pretty boring. Transaction was easy and shipping was fast. Will buy again from Zappos!

Love these shoes. Very comfortable, plenty of room for the toes, good cushion. Love the color.

Too narrow through the mid-section (arch) of my foot. Not wide enough.

Love these shoes. The first pair that I can wear that I do not have pain.

fits well, comfortable, like wearing

I love the fit and feel of New Balance. My feet are wide and thick and it is difficult to find comfortable shoes. New Balance never fails

So comfortable, I'm ordering a second pair.
