I have owned approximately 15 pairs of 860's the last several years. They have great support & hold up to a great deal of use.usually get 250-300 miles out of each pair. Come in great colors! Currently own 5 pair.

They were true to width which is the most important fit for me. They are also comfortable and stylish.

I'm on a college running team and these are great, I have never had a problem with these in the month that I've used them.

Bought this in a 15w. The wide fit is what I’ve needed all these years! The only drawback is that I’ve had some heel pain but I got some insole inserts and it’s all good now.

I wear these shoes full day for everyday use. They are comfortable and light weight and give my flat feet needed support.

These are very comfy, and breathable. I ordered size 8.5 4E, I have two other New Balance shoes same size and width and these fit the same.

I've been looking for a new stability shoe after the last few versions of Gel Kayanos got progressively worse. These 860s are great, I'm slowly increasing my weekly mileage and will definitely buy again!

This is just like it's predecessor which I wore out. It's a perfect fit for my wide, wide feet. It looks good. It feels good.

Ran on the 1080 for years and would wear out the outside heels within 6 months. Did some research and called New Balance. Decided to try the 860 and made a hugh difference. I feel like me feet are level rather than at angle, also felt like I had much control. Anyone with a similar problem, I highly recommend changing to the 860.

I replaced my Brooks Ghost with these NBs because Zapppos was out of men's 14W Ghost's , they are very similar, good cushioning and the fit is very good. Just logged my first run with them and it was a good ride.
I'd also recommend:

Mt husband has a bunion on one foot , hence he needs a wide width. The fit was perfect… the material stretched just enough to make for a firm, yet not too tight, fit. The color is nice too… a bluish grey which is different from his usual grey. He’s loving these shoes in every way! New Balance always seem to fit him well!

Going to use my new soft foam shoes for walking the Camino in Portugal and Spain next week. This is my 3rd pair of soft foam.

I have been a 860 user since introduction. This v12 is the best in terms of fit and support (so far, used it for couple weeks).

These are a great pair of sneakers. As always, New Balance doesn't disappoint. My son tells me that they're comfortable. He's been wearing New Balance since elementary school! And this style had so many color choices in a men's 12.5.

3-5 miles daily runs. Very comfortable. I have been wearing NB for over 20 years exclusively because they offer wide sizes. I am always 2E. I got these in V11 2E and the shoe was too wide. This time standard width. Much better fit.

My shoes were needing an update. Used mostly as gym shoes they are ten years old and very comfortable. I was pleased with how soon my new shoes felt as comfortable and they look so much better. Off to a new decade.

I've been running in 860's for 10 or so years. These foam cushion v12 are super comfortable. I have flat caveman feet and need the support the stability platform offers. Highly recommended!
