Reviewed at New Balance
I have used New Balance for years and know there are real running shoes and ones foe casual use and for walking. I wanted a shoe that looked like a running shoe but I could wear in my everyday life. I like the look of the shoe alot. It feels good when I put it on. I like the 2E or 4E widths for comfort and room for my toes. I got the widest width and it is comfortable. My only negative has been when I wear the shoes all day my feet are fatigued. That isn't NB fault. I probably shouldn't wear them that way. If I used the shoes for doing a 3-5 mile walk and take them off my feet would feel fine. 4 stars in my opinion is still a great score. 5 star shoes need to check off every box for me. I would buy these shoes again if available when these wear out.

They sneakers are the most comfortable sneakers I've worn in years but they are too small. They're very light spicy which is good if you have to wear them for a long time. I wanted to exchange them, but didn't see an exchange policy.

I get these for my daily work shoes. These were not as comfortable as my previous Fresh foam models. Feel a little on the stiffer side.

Very nice looking. Stylish without being garish. Light weight, good lacing flexibility. And lots of cushioning.

The fit is a little tighter than my other Fresh Foam running shoes, but still like New Balance Fresh Foam better than most running shoes. I don't know if they were meant for full running, but fast walking is great in these shoes.
I'd also recommend:
Any of the New Balance Fresh Foams

New Balance has been one of my favorite shoes brands since the 80's.I was a semi-pro football player and my older brother was a D2 Head football coach.He had access to several brands,but he gave my 1st pair of New Balance all those years ago to train with,and I've purchased several pairs in store. Wether working out or just for casual wear,New balance is a comfortable,durable shoe.

Disappointed in the arch. I have a high arch and I have trouble getting the shoes on.

Usually, I have had good luck with 4W NB sneakers fit, but for some reason, this pair was unusually narrow feeling near the toe. I thought there would be a slight stretch as usual when breaking in a new pair, but this pair didn't. The longer I wore them, the more they bothered my big toe. Love the look and color...not impressed with the thinness of the material, or width of these sneakers. They may have been better in a size longer, but it's too late now to change them.

The toe area was too cramped to be a 4E width. I have several similar NB shoes which have more room

The look of the shoe is nice. I am a woman & have found out over the years of purchasing NB men 4E wide fits my foot best. The width is slightly wider than my previous pr in this style, but is not a dealbreaker. The shoe does not have much cushion, but for the price, I add an insert & I’m fine with this option. I will buy more pairs.

Love the colors, just a little orange. I walk a lot and this she feels real good. Only problem is the 10 was too big and the 9.5 is just slightly small. But im trying to make it work.

I ordered 11 extra wide. They are a little narrower than expected. Next time 11-1/2 may fit less tight. Very good cushion and moderate arch support.

Every pair of New Balance I have owned has run half a size small...so I always order 1/2 to 1 size large. I like these shoes, very light, comfortable, good support

Went to the NB Outlet store in Mass because I like to try on shoes before buying. Price in store was $79.99. Not sure why an factory outlet store would not have competitive pricing to internet. My bad, but I needed sneakers that day. They also run 1/2 size small.

Size was true and these feel very comfortable. Out the box I wore them on a vacation that included a lot of walking around and I felt great. Plus I love the colors.

Shoes are great for road running. Uppers are a little flimsy for anything off pavement, but they have a wide toe box, plenty of support, and are super lightweight.

I do not purchase from Zappos regularly. I ordered these New Balance and was very excited to get them only to be disappointed when they were too snug. It could not have been easier to exchange them and the new, larger pair arrived in two days, before I even had a chance to send the other ones back. Excellent customer service and the new size fits perfectly!

I've been wearing NB 990's and 1540's 4E, which fit, but are pricey. These cost half as much buy are a good half inch less wide in the 13 4E size. They work for me (barley). Wish they matched the sizing of the 1540's.
