A little large feeling, but what I expected, and I wanted shoes with: protective strips along toe, heel and side, enough underfoot padding, room for warm socks. For camping and excursions into rough. I added superfeet as usual for arch support.

Love my choices but seems I need a 1/2 size larger. Will be exchanging not returning.

Used as an everyday casual shoe - long walks, shopping, travel. Ordered my usual New Balance size - 9.5 wide. Width, arch support, and comfort are very good. Length was a bit short on this pair. Best features are its reliable fit and comfort but most importantly, the additional toe protection over the front top of shoe. I'll continue using New Balance as my go-to in the future.

This shoe is a little wider than I expected. It doesn’t have the stability I need with my orthotics.

I liked the shoe but it was about an inch shorter than the womens size 9 Asics. I thought I accidentally ordered a kids' size, that's how small the shoe was! Size UP with these, they run very small

Liked the looks of the shoes but did not like the design around the top of shoes, I can feel it on my nails of my toes.

the tongue of the shoe seemed almost like a paper, and would ride down as you walked. That doesn't seem to be the best when your going to be doing nothing but walking.

I have bought these same shoes before and found this pair to be extremely disappointing. Never had trouble breaking in NB but these were awful. They dug into my heel leaving blisters/cuts after a short wear. Buyer beware! Leaves me a bit nervous about buying NB in the future.

The fit was good but the back of the shoe comes up really high on the heel. Just a few minutes wearing them around the house it was clear they would cause blisters. Couldn’t keep them.

These are pretty shoes but sizing is crazy. I have worn new balance shoes for 30 years - switched from 8 1/2 to 9 about 5 years ago. Bought these in 9D and they were too short. Bought a 91/2 D and no bigger than the 9! Weird. Had to return the whole mess.

I thought that these would be more supportive than they are. I bought them for intense HIIT workout with lots of jumping and weightlifting. they feel like they run half a size big. the arch support isn't that great they feel pretty flat.I'm keeping them because I don't have time or the energy to return.

I usually wear a 7 in an athletic shoe--quite comfortably--but my toes were right up at the tip of these NB Nitrels. I have to return for 7.5. Also, if you are expecting the usual "cushy" New Balance this pair is not that. Attractive profile, though.

Shoe runs smaller than I thought. I'll have to return these and try another model.

Runs small. New balance shoes don't seem to be the same quality as they used to be.

Love the colors, comfort and support, buuut, the wide width is not wide at all. I wish I had not worn these shoes so much to figure that out. Maybe try ordering a size up?

This shoe runs small, get half size bigger. I'm normally 8 D had to get an 8.5 2E, There's too much mesh all over the shoe, it's for nice weather not an all season shoe. One puddle ='s new socks

I like the look of the shoe, but it was slightly too tight so I had to return it. I wear an 8.5 wide.

Disappointed. Ordered a half-size up and my toes hit the front of the shoe.

I bought these for trail walking at my local state park, because I can't bear to get my new 840's dirty! However, they are not as roomy in the toe box, and the reinforcement over the top edge (toes) makes my big toe hurt on left foot. They also rubbed my heel on left foot, so needed to use moleskin. Since I love my 840's, guess I just need to be more careful choosing styles that are right for me.

The shoes were
Very nice and comfortable but I bought the wrong size had to return them. The returning process was very easy and very fast, but I still haven't gotten my refund yet.
