Customer Reviews New Balance Work & Safety 589v1

To heavyweight and causing pain

I had to order a size bigger because they were too narrow and 4e is the widest zappos carried. The insole is completely flat with zero arch support or softness. After getting a replacement insole they are almost comfortable. One further note. These shoes are very heavy almost like wearing ankle weights.

This show hurts to stand in and even hurts while I’m sitting.

Ordered a size bigger because I figured with the composite toe I would need it. Got the 2E... should've gotten the 4E. As with most shoes nowadays... no arch support at all. Have owned for less than 2 months and they are already coming apart in places. Definitely not the new balance that I'm used to... Work shoes should hold up to the work site... I work inside in a warehouse...

Very uncomfortable steel toe. No support in the heel section. Will not recommend

There are the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn they gave me blisters on my feet

Extremely uncomfortable

Second pair i ordered after the other NB sneakers that were also foot torture.Always used NB sneakers before but they obviously cannot make good comfortable composite toe work sneakers.

Felt like frankenstein boots, couldn't wear them for my shift as it just hurt. Maybe with some well cushioned sole it might be good, but eventually you'll just be switching sole for sole as there is no cushion in this shoe at all.

not great

very uncomfortable ( my opinion, most composite toe shoe are uncomfortable)

The size is okay but the arch support is not, also my heal slips. After one day, my feet hurt so bad I could barley walk. I gave them a good solid week of wearing them at work and my feet, legs, and lower back hurt. These are probably one of the worst shoes I have ever worn.

Was not sewn well. Size is too large. Overall poor quality and design.

The most uncomfortable work shoes I’ve ever had by the end of my shift I have the worst pains in my feet I feel like crying

Not very wide, and not available in true (5e+) extra wide. Size felt about right though.

The steel toe made the shoe very uncomfortable.

Fit was fine, shoe is too damned HEAVY. Ankles destroyed in a day. Never worn again.

size 11. Not comfortable at all.

Shoes are junk. I want to return them but I'm still waiting for the Bates to come back in stock. Are you getting them in or what?

Not true to size. My feet were in were severely in pain when Amazon warehouse made it mandatory for me to wear them (which necessitated me seeking orthopedic doctor help).

The shoe was very uncomfortable to wear.

Too small. They are just uncomfortable

My toes hit the top of the shoes causing irritation and discomfort. I did not like these shoes and had more luck with a Reebok model.

Shoes are very uncomfortable to wear
