The product looked great and the recipient loved it, but they were a half-size too small.

Would prefer if they were no tie, but in the alternative, have round laces. The laces they came with are thin and cheesy.

These are very comfortable sneakers. I wear an 8.5W and they fit true to size. Plenty of room and my toes don't bang up against the front of them when I walk. They are lightweight and have nice cushioning. My reason for 4 stars is that they don't really support my arch very well.

Great look but not comfortable. Slightly smaller than expected and the padding feels like it ends at the ball of your feet and does not extend to your toes. It results in an odd drop off that is not comfortable when walking. It is a great look and very light weight.

I have an older pair of this shoe that is much lighter and softer. These new ones are stiffer and even though I appreciated the extra support in the back heel, the collar lining was very hard and rubbed on my inside ankle. I felt pain even after taking them off and I only tried them on for less than 5 minutes. I have very flat feet so maybe someone with a higher arch won't feel the rubbing on the ankle bone.

These shoes were not very expensive land it showed.

New Balance has been my go to because the wide is wider than other brands in the past at least.

The heel is so high in the back that it rubs and causes blisters. It didn't break in after many weeks trying.

I like the shoes however the toes have a piece (maybe of cardboard) around the toes that hit my little toes at a spot that catches sometimes when walking or exercising that is uncomfortable to painful. I would not buy this style again for this reason.

These are very comfortable but the toe box is narrow and like 1/4 size too small. I think a couple adjustments would make this the absolute perfect shoe!! Cushion but not too much… platform not too high… great look. Just slightly too small.

The shoe is decent, but lately the quality of all running shoes have declined over the years. New Balance used to be my favorite go-to running shoes, but they don't feel as cushy or as comfortable as they used to. With these shoes, while the fit was great, the laces are TERRIBLE. They're cloth-like so they're thick and very hard to lace up or loosen.

These shoes are comfortable if I don't have to walk or stand for long periods. The uppers are very cozy around the foot, plenty of toe room. But the soles are hard with little support. I do have tender feet, after about a mile of walking my feet get sore and fatigued. Handsome shoes, look great.

I don't care for the Fresh Foam Style! I wanted to wear these in the house, but the sole of the shoe didn't
feel comfortable on my tile floors. This shoe is made to be worn outdoors!

I need to stick to the New Balance brand for the best fit for me!

With a narrow heel and higher arches, this shoe didn't fit correctly. Also the finish of the fabric was a NO. Sending back.

I like the color and look of the shoes. The cushioning was okay but not great, and there was no arch support. I wore them for about 20 minutes in the house and began to feel discomfort in right foot.

I could feel my big toe against the top of the shoe. It would not be comfortable to wear. They have changed the fit of the Arishi New Balance shoe and not for the better.

I ordered my size in these, and my big toe was hitting the end. I ended up returning for something else due to them being wide and I didn't want them to be longer and wider. They are very nice looking and comfortable shoe just not the right fit for me.

Great shoe but the wide, which I usually take, was too wide and very boxy. Oh well!
