Shoe felt good and didn't need to insert my orthotics to get a good comfy fit.
Was able to wear them on the first day and needed no break in time.
All round good court shoe.

Very stiff uppers with too narrow a toe box for me. Felt about a half size too short as well.

first time i am purchasing NB for tennis shoes. I have worn them once and it wasnt the best feeling on my first wear. i ordered a half size up as i usually do for tennis shoes but it felt a little tight and the support/cushion wasn't the best compared to my other tennis shoes. cute shoes and vibrant colors, but i am still hesitant on the level of comfort and support.

Minimal cushion; size is smaller than with other shoes I own. Buy 1/2 size larger.

Bought to use for Pickleball, however I wear a 6.5 2E. This shoe unfortunately runs narrow and does not work for me. Pain form lack of room started 30 minutes after I put the shoes on.

I am a 2E and this isn’t even wide width. If you need wide shoes, stay away from these.

Much too narrow to be a WW width.

I wear a 2E and this felt like a narrow. Do not purchase this is you have wide feet. I will be returning my pair. As for style, they are nice looking.

Reviews said they might run small, so I bought them in the widest version possible. They're still uncomfortable. Can't recommend. They're going back.

Could barely get my foot in it. NB used to be a great shoe, but they need to quit making shoes in Asia. It's not even a Wide, which I can usually wear in a 7, but this is just a joke, poor quality management.

Very disappointed. I have purchased the NB model WC806 court shoe a few times and they fit fine. I was just tired of white and hoping to find a wide width in a color. Since these are NB wides I assumed the fit would be similar. The overall shoe, in the same size, is significantly shorter and narrower. I'm not sure that a 1/2 size bigger would even work. (I order a size 7 and a 7.5) Returned both sizes.

I normally wear an 8 and I ordered this bigger sized 8 1/2 because I was using it for tennis. It is WAY too small. My toes started hurting as I was playing, And once I wore them, I can't send them back. UGH!!!

These shoes killed my feet on the tennis court. I tried to push through but my feet ached every time I wore them. It was like wearing bricks. Plus they wore out quickly and got dirty very easily.
