Best fit for my wide feet! Bought 2 pairs so I
could rotate them. As a barber I wear them all day on my feet. Haven't had one that's lasted me all day up till now where my feet don't hurt by the end of the day.

They fit great. No break-in period and the articulated heel, make this the best sneaker line New Balance has. This is now my 5th pair.

New Balance needs to offer the extra wide width in more colors. I like to have more than one pair in use but it is very difficult to find a variety of colors in extra wide.

This model NB has a superb cushion for anyone who jogs or runs on asphalt or concrete. Shoe size comes in wide sizes so it really help the fit.
My podiatrist is very high on NB 860 and 880 model shoes.

I would not call these high on stability or support. They are comfortable, but the shaved outside heel drive into a dangerous gate.

After 2 weeks I'll have to abandon them since I started having an injury.

I bought these a few weeks back and they are a good stability shoe. I've worn them on about 10 runs of 4 miles and they're holding up well. They fit well, I did order a half size up based on prior experience with 860s - I normally wear a 10B but 10.5B was perfect with these. If you have awful feet like mine, overpronate, and need narrow widths, these work great.

Shoe very comfortable. Toe box a little snug but heal nice and tight. Gives good support. I'll give it 4,5 stars.

My teen loves the bright color and the comfort! He has a very wide foot and is a size 12 We find it very hard to find sneakers that are comfortable for him. If you have a wide or xwide foot we highly recommend the x 860vs!!!

Mesh sides and top adjust to bunion. Rounded toe is good for extra wide feet. Would buy again if possible. Had to buy men's 4 X to fit wide feet. Why do shoe makers think women do not have extra wide feet?

I like this shoe but not as much as the old 1080. When NB changed the 1080 by adding the plastic heel tab which, to me, is a bad addition. I tried the new 1080 but the plastic tab rubs my ankles even with inserts. NB shouldn't fix something that isnt broken.

I run about 15 -20 miles per week. The shoes feel great and work well. I had planter fasciitis a few years ago and started running with the 860's and Superfeet arch supports and I have had no problems since.

The shoes arrived in a timely fashion. The colour and size were satisfying in size and colour. I have a wide foot and they fit perfectly. I've only worn them in the house so far because I'm waiting for the return of warm, dry weather for walking outdoors and moderate gym use. I am pleased with these shoes and glad to be dealing online for the wide selection of styles and colours.

I have been wearing NB Fresh Foams for years. I wore them at a job where I was on my feet all day long. Now that I am retired I wear them for walking.

This is my first pair of NB. I was loyal to another brand but started to have hip and knee problems. So I took a chance on NB, haven't had any pain since about the forth day of wearing them. If this holds out you have a new and happy customer.

I have used used your tennis shoes exclusively for years in the 4E size. Over the last year the 4E size seems smaller and is now too small for me so I have returned everything after trying several models. I believe you changed the place of manufacture and maybe that is the reason?

I am a walker (used to run; too much knee arthritis now). Walk about an hour a day (3-3.5 miles); weather permitting (in VA so winter not too bad). First of the New Balance Fresh Foams that I've gotten for walking; like it very much. Good support all over especially in heel. Very comfortable as well. I like New Balance because my foot is wide and you usually have wide widths in the shoes I like. its a quality shoe.
