They fit well, they're comfortable, but they're not as lightweight as I was looking for

I have bad plantar fasciitis on the bottom of my heels and the heel cushioning in this shoe helps tremendously. I also like the loops in the back and the front, which help to pull on the shoes easily. Cute styling that doesn't scream clunky athletic shoe. As others have said, the shoe runs small. I bought my usual size and my toes are pushed up against the front, so 1 star removed for the off-sizing.

This she was very comfy and very light weight. I am a meter reader and walk ten miles every day. Good stability and cushion, however just like the trail runners I bought from NB, the toe box is too shallow- the shoes fit in length and width, but the front toe box presses down on my toes as it is not deep enough. So they start out great but by end of day toes hurt on top. This model is pretty stretchy so it's getting less painful as time goes on and I wear them, but I would definitely recommend going up a half size which I would have done if I had known this. Now that they are worn it is too late to return them for half size bigger so I'm just going to suffer through. Other than that I like the shoe I just wish I would've known about the fit of the toe box before buying so I could have sized up.

These are my favorite running shoe style and I was so glad when I saw that you can order the reissue from the website but they do run just a touch shorter in length than the original issue.

These are my first pair of NB but won't be my last. My feet no longer ache after long walks. Great support & very comfortable!

Love the sneaker for casual wear (it's not for serious walking or working out) but they are a little short so best to size up a 1/2-1 size.

I am keeping the shoes, but not as much arch support as I would like. So white & clean looking....classy.

These are greatly looking shoes and my husband get lots of compliments on them. They fit true to size and came just as pictured. The only issue is that they aren't the most supportive.

I have been looking for good work shoes as a nurse for my entire career. I never liked the idea of sneakers because of the...ahem...bodily fluids issue but I've reached the age where I just need to wear what's right for my body and there isn't a clog out there that was doing it for me. I know because I literally tried them all. Size up one if you are buying for work.

I bought these since I have another pair of Fresh Foams, but somehow these seem snugger even though they're the same size. My toes seem to be a little squished. Also I wish there weren't laces so they'd be true slip-ons!

This is my 3rd pair of this comfortable, light and stylish shoe. The fabric color on the black pair seemed to be slightly better on the original

Ordered the black ones. Comfort and quality were great. Definitely order 1 size up. Loved the tan sole and accent. However, the black has a blue/green tinge to it. Because of this, I'm returning.

I got these for work, so every day wear.. they are comfortable and really light. I would say they fit kind of snug.. I have never had to buy "wide" fit shoes before and I accidently ordered the wide fit thinking they may be too wide but they actually were still pretty snug.. I would suggest maybe sizing up 1/2 size if they offer that--I didn't check. Over all though, great shoe!

The shoes came in great, but when they arrived they have stains on the laces :( it almost seems as if someone's makeup rubbed off on them. It isn't a huge deal however they are white shoes so it's very visible. Other than that, the shoes look and feel amazing

I love walking in these. The support is good and they are a good weight. Wish I could get them in white without any other colors added. Would have given five stars but had to order half size larger because these seem to run smaller than my usual shoe size.

These are not quite as fluffy foam as the vongo but they are still a great very comfortable product. They are easy to slip on and I really like the softest heel support. You can dance and fully point your toes in them. Very happy with my purchase.

I like the sneakers as they are comfortable for walking, running or doing any other sports. I did not realize when I bought the sneakers they would have a strange bump on the inside of the sneaker in order to secure your heel. It takes a little to get used to that security on your heel, but after that they are quite comfortable. I enjoy the cushion in the heel area, and how light the sneakers feel when I wear them.

My foot in a little too wide for standard so I went with wide. I wear a 9.5 women's shoe in adidas- I went with a 10.5 wide and they fit perfectly. Only downside is that the black ones look a little greenish and it's hard to tell them apart from the navy ones.

I like these shoes for the most part. My only complaint is the pictures don't show down the ankle of the shoe very large it says "since 1906". Not a fan and it looks silly to me.

Excellent support but the width isn't quite what was stated. Overall, good shoe but not a great fit.

The shoes didn't come in an original box, the tag says 7.5 W... maybe that was interpreted as wide which is what the shoes were listed as however I'm pretty sure the W is for women's. Not wide which is what I needed. have to return.

Actually a very nice shoe. However, I have a high arch and have a difficult time putting them on. I want to return these and order another New Balance shoe.
I'd also recommend:
Softwalk, Reiker, Born
