I'm very pleased with the New Balance steel-tip shoe I needed for my warehouse job. It is extremely comfortable as well. In addition, it seems to be a shoe I will use for a long time given that Zappos has a great reputation. Bravo Zappos!

I love New Balance shoes as they tend to fit well and last a long time. I was glad to find composite toe shoes for work.

Tight as first but i got half size bigger and good idea to do so. After a couple hours the broke in and now they feel great inserts are NOT a must but added for personal preference. The composite toe doesn't make it feel heavy. I like how bulky it looks and light weight. I'm happy to have them.

Fantastic shoe! Fits just and moves just like a normal shoe. You wouldn't even be able to tell the difference!

I am a floor mechanic for a EMS helicopter maintenance facility. And I'm on my feet for most of the work day. These are comfortable durable and well made. Their not as heavy as work boots. And the soles are almost as comfortable as my New Balance running shoes. They come in extra wide. Which is nice. The guys I work with, have noticed and asked about them. I would recommend these to anyone, that stands on their feet most of the day. I'm not disappointed. And I don't think you would be either.

These shoes showed up with a blemish in the mesh above the right big toe area but I needed them right away so I kept them the hard toe is not as wide as it is in the 412 so not consistent across different lines of shoes I'm a 14 4E and they are against my toes on both sides but not to the point of having to jam them in the 412 gave me a little room on either side I use these shoes for work as an ATM tech so far the toe has held up better then the 412 which started to come apart very quickly over all I do like the shoes and will probably get them again but I wasn't happy that these were not included in their sale then they did not show up absolutely perfect they do go through the metal detector at the airport so if that is something you need they are good for that

The size of the shoe is good as a brand also but for long term of wearing it and standing 10 hours on foot in one position I wouldn't recommend it for summer time specifically your feet are boiling in it for the winter time tho I would wear it yes but not for long term of time. The shoes are heavy and makes your feet hurt especially if you have surgery as mine on your foot ! They are heavy duty shoes yes I agree and I like it but not for me and this is my opinion for my feet yours could feel better! Thanks :)

The fit and finish on this was so bad, that I couldn't get them on, within minutes of trying to lace them up (which you can barely do, because the eyelets were not properly aligned), I simply put them back into the box, printed out an RMA Label, and posted them back the same day they arrived. Adding insult to injury is the discontinuance of the 993 series, which was one of the bestselling shoes under the brand, because they were made in America.
I will no longer wear NewBalance, and I've also considered discarding the shoes under this brand I do have, as I can no longer support a brand that could put forward such an utter failure in design, construction and delivery ( not to mention the customer service rep on the phone that got me so upset, that I just told them I was ending the call, and will never buy NewBalance again.
It was a good 40 years of wearing good shoes, but whoever is running NewBalance now has decided to destroy their own brand.
I'll miss what once was.
The shoes were confirmed as having made it back to the company, and will need to wait up to a month for them to process the refund. Everyone else can do this upon delivery to their return site. I guess they need to leverage that cash on float for the 21 days it takes...hopefully the refund shows up.

Not much padding and the material in the heels tore out even though not worn extensively.

This is the fourth time I have purchased a composite toe shoe, changing the size each time I cannot find any matching my feet. This is incredibly frustrating as I have to order this through the mail come and get them sent to my house, try them on, they don't fit, then return them, and try again over and over and over. I'm so over this

Shoe type is great in both men and female versions of this shoe and is perfect for my 10 hour shifts. Last me more than a year each time.
