This product Fresh Foam 860, does not live up to the quality of Fresh Foam 1080. Sorry returned product with no problem and received credit

Fit is perfect. I’m a true 12 wide and can’t say enough about the fit.

Love the 860v12. Fit true to size. Shoe hugged mid foot and heel, with comfortable room in the toe box. Having a narrow foot makes it difficult to find shoes that fit properly, but that isn’t an issue with New Balance. Have purchased 2 pairs of 860v11 and now 860v12 in size 12N and they are perfect!! Great support and comfort for my daily 3 mile walks. Highly recommend.

I have a flat foot and I over pronate. The mid level arch support in these shoes really corrects for this. The wide toe box allows my toes to splay properly as well. Great shoes from a great company.

Recommended by my foot specialist. The NB Shoes I was using were actually Trail Shoes. I am a Senior Walker, and these shoes are for how I walk. Love them!

Decent shoe for comfort as of now but to eat to tell. Seems to be solid construction & like the wide width.

Not my first pair of NB, but the first with memory form (860). Have to say quite comfortable have not yet hit the road, but have worn them as a every day item.

Sz 16 fits good. Price I paid for these shoes seems a bit steep. Otherwise, NB keep producing sz 16's.

For standard fit is has the feeling of a smaller size than what you order. Other than that is a great shoe

These are the most comfortable shoes from New Balance I have ever had. I have had many NB running shoes over the years but the fresh foam really adds a new dimension in cushioning I find hard to believe.

Bought as a gift for my hard-to-fit husband. Shoes were comfortable and fit him well. He wears a 15N. Will definitely purchase again.

I returned the shoes because i did not like the feel or fit. The shoe looks ok from top view but is very wide on bottom. The best shoes are 990 series !

V12 has thickened the side welt compared to prior versions of this sneaker which I have worn for years through multiple versions. The new design causes the sneaker to rub up against my right ankle bone. Thus, I can no longer wear this model. Very unfortunate. I use the sneaker for walking, sailing and biking. I had to return the sneaker and am still searching for a suitable replacement.

I walk 5+ miles a day. This shoe has nice cushioning, a good sole, but is cut too short. I purchased a 13 first, it was too short, then a 14 and it was too long. I would like to return both.

The shoe is wonderful but the material around the heel rubs to the point that it disrupts my students when I walk in the room.

I've got Plantar Fasciitis really bad and these shoes have helped me keep my daily walking routine. I was having to use diclofenac twice a day but after wearing these for a couple of days I've not had to use it at all. I liked these so much I bought a pair for my wife also, she likes hers too!
