For a runner with low arches and a slight to moderate bunyon on my right foot, once i put this pair on to start breaking it in with walking , it felt really good on my feet and toes. I wear the standard width and I still have room enough for my toes to spread during tor-off or foot flat of the gait cycle even with my toe spreader worn on the 2nd toe. My only slight disappointment are the shoelaces being flat and kinda thin but feels durable. They would eventually get all twisted up and come out thin BUT a minor thing for me.
I would recommend this shoe for all those who have low arches.

Great shoe for those of you who have a wide forefoot and need extra stability because of flat feet. The ordering was simple and shipping was quick. Seamless process.

I buy 6-8 pairs a year of the 860's. The toe box is much more narrow on these.

Love this Shoe I usually get trainer shoes for the support but they lack comfort I have found the right shoe for me to wear everyday.

I walk 1.5 miles every day for exercise and the Fresh Foam X 860v12 is perfect for that activity. My feet don't hurt when I finish my walk and during my walk the light weight of he shoes keeps my calves and ankles from getting fatigued.

Extremely comfortable and excellent fit overcame my dislike for the Gore-Tex billboard on the side of each shoe, so I kept them.

This shoe was made even better with its fresh foam. The only running shoe I will buy for my flat feet. I have tried all the other brands shoe for pronation and this is the best one for me, for life.

I am required to be on my feet a lot while at work. I walk anywhere from 7500 to 18000 steps per day at work alone. These shoes have made my workday so much better.

New Balance sells orthotic, unfortunately they don't always sell shoes to fit them! Shoe was unusual fit where 12 extra wide was on the small side, and the 12.5 extra was on the large side. It was almost they needed a size 12.25 extra wide.

FINALLY! I had to return the Gravity Defyer 12 WW, not because of quality or design, but because of a poor fit. Finding shoes wide enough for my 12 boat oar feet is always tough, but when I saw these New Balance available in a 4W, I ordered right away. All I am reviewing is the fit and comfort as I have not road tested these shoes yet. Props to Zappos for their generous return policy. I wore the Mighty Walks for a month! They wore a blister in my heel that was the size of a silver dollar. I tried, but had to give up and was thrilled when Zappos took them back with a full refund, no question, no hassle, not cost to me. Again, Applause. If you have wide feet, the 4W is what you need. They are not too wide at all and the 12 fits true as well. These shoes are nice looking, and we shall see how they hold up for comfort and support on the pavement.

Great support and comfort for longer distance walking. I used to run but, now as someone recovering from various foot issues, I strongly recommend these to someone looking for comfort with adequate structure as well. Ps. Also hood to order Wide if needed.

I have 860-11 and 860-12's and both have the tongue attached to the sides of the shoes. This new one does not have that and the tongue now moves from side to side.

This is my second pair. I wear women's 12B and have the light blue/aqua color. This time I went with the mens 10.5 and got the yellow which I love. I am a walker, not a runner and these are incredibly comfortable.
Interestingly I tried/returned the women's 12W -- they were too big, squishy in the forefoot. Oddly, the men's 10.5 which should be the same, right? fit really well -- not swimming in front.
Anyway, I'm a believer. Thanks, New Balance
