I ordered these because I need a narrow width. I generally wear size 8.5 in athletic shoes and the 8.5 narrow fits perfectly. My foot doesn't swim around in the shoe, but I still have plenty of toe room. They have good arch support. The style is okay - I wanted white, but would prefer a pop of color somewhere. The narrow width only comes in black and white. They also make my feet look big, but I'll sacrifice style for a good fit.

I just about live in V12 of this shoe - bought several pairs but can no longer find. The great thing about this version is that the D width provided plenty of width and depth to make the shoe comfortble. With having had surgery on both feet, and a metal plate on one, the space made them perfect - along with the cushioning that helped avoid some previous plantar fasciitis issues. With at least the V14 and later, NB decided to make an attached tongue - which added pressure to the foot. Also with the V15 it has less depth (height) for the top of the foot making it even more uncomfortable. I did find a V14 pair but the colors are ones that I'd care for. I tried the "grey" and they should have called it "white". It would look filthy after a couple of wears - so now I'm looking for a different shoe.

After wearing H'a's for so long, I thought it time for a change. Enter New Balance 880. This was a perfect pick for me! Size 8 1/2 Wide is true to size. My orthotics are pretty high and wide so these New Balance are the perfect fit for me. I'm ordering another pair in black! Thanks, Zappos for selling a very fine foot!
I'd also recommend:
None. New Balance is the new foot

I wear a size 9 in a regular shoe and bought a 9.5 in this sneaker. It fits well. I love the color combo on this shoe. It's very bouncy. I can't say it has arch support really but it is not uncomfortable.

I needed a half size larger, although that wasn't available, so I ordered a full size larger. It seems to be fine with a full size larger. I also definitely needed the double extra wide shoes.

A spongy feeling, like walking on a cloud. I wish it had more support on the sides, as I have a problem with pronation. I cannot comment on the wear of the sole of the shoe, since it's new. I hope it holds up under the wear and tear of power-walking. The shoe sits firmly on the ground, and my footing feels secure. I usually wear the New Balance 990v5, which are the best, and they're built strong, but they don't come in the color white.

I ordered the same item I have purchased within the year. It was too short. I wear a narrow. A half size larger was not available. I'm VERY disappointed. With a narrow size I get no choice of color. And when white is not available I must need new feet.

These are super comfy. The sole is a little "klunky" but the comfort makes it worth it. My only complaint is the color of the laces ran into the shoes on a rainy day....makes them look dirty. Disappointed at this price that shouldn't happen

The cushioning in this shoe with the Fresh Foam makes the shoe very comfortable.

LOVE these. I have wide feet and ordered a 9D and they're perfect. Super comfortable right out of the box. They don't rub anywhere or need to be broken in. Took off 2 stars for style because I really dislike the ginormous soles, BUT that's all they're making now so I have to conform until the styles change again. Thanks Zappos!

I love these shoes! Like walking on a cloud. I sometimes. wear size 9 and sometimes 9.5. I ordered the 9 initially and had to exchange.

Nice shoes, comfortable, but my toes hit the end which is not a good sign, since there is no room for foot swelling as you wear them for an extended period of time.

Had hoped the longer size would help with need for more toe room but the added length were too wide for my orthotics.

Very cute shoes but have to return because too much arch support. If you have flatish feet these would be perfect!

Really not too happy with these shoes. I don't have much choice left to me in shoes anymore as I have very narrow feet. In a lot of cases I have to settle for what I can get to stay on my feet. I also have to take a large size and had to order a 10 1/2. All shoes usually look cute in a size 6 these look more like clown shoes. Like I said I have to take what I can keep on my feet.

The New Balance Fresh Foam X 880 v15 cuts into my ankles when I walk or jog. These shoes are being returned because of the discomfort. Compared with New Balance Fresh Foam in previous years, the fit of the X 880 is shorter.

I really wanted these to work - they're really cute! But, my normal size 9 1/2 EE no longer fits like it used to. The shoes are, unfortunately too short and too narrow.

I could not fit my foot in the shoe. The tongue has elastic to hold it to the insole, very narrow.

I don't know if it was me, but I had a difficult time putting the shoe on my foot, it felt like it was a childs shoe not an adult wide. For that reasone, they went back, but the style and color was eyecatching.

I love New Balance shoes! They always fit great and feel like walking on clouds. The fresh foam shoes’ support is great for my Zumba Gold classes.
