Customer Reviews New Balance Work & Safety 589v1

The fit is good but, they are not comfortable on cement floors

Bought 8 wide. I normally wear size 8 Converse so these felt big, especially in the toe area, but I think that's more me than the shoes. Fit perfectly with insoles.

The New Balance fit perfectly. They are built heavy duty and are great for safety work shoes. So far they are comfortable and have plenty toe room.

Everything quality was good but pinky toe hurts

Too bulky

I liked the shoes but i fwlt that they were on the heavy side and they hurt my feet

Have to wear composite shoes for work. Bought a size larger, and wear thick socks. Standing 10 hour shifts. No comfort.... Have to buy the thick insoles inserts. After all, they're pretty and overall good.

I love wearing these shoes to work. Always been happy with New Balance.

heavy shoe. will take getting used to the weight.

Had to send back women 7.5 extra wide and order size 7 extra wide ,now I am happy these shoes are fine , I am a man wearing woman shoes , I have small wide feet and have a hard time finding the right size shoes

Love them they're cute, comfy and cool

The size was perfect, I prefer to have Skechers they're more comfortable. These shoes are only comfortable if you were thick socks they tend to rub the toes. Very painful.

This shoe is a great work shoe as far as the protective toe and rubber sole but the shoe is a little heavy.

Great work shoe

Fit is okay but rubs against my toes when I walk because of a little more room because of the composite toes.

Today I begin my new job and I will be wearing my new protective shoes. When I opened the box for the first time, I thought they were horrible looking because pink is not my favorite color. When I took them out of the box, I thought they were the heaviest shoes I have ever had. They are. However, after I tried them on, I loved the feel and the support.

It runs big and isn't comfortable

For an odd , wide seven and a half size like mine, I needed a half size larger., and a width of EE wide or extra wide New Balance women shoes. So this shoes, 589 size 8 EE is the right size for me.

Style was super cute. Comfort is doable. It’s not as comfortable as the running shoes but it’s meant to be a durable shoe with a composite toe. The fit is true to size. Upon arrival as I tried them on as I slipped my right foot in I immediately fell in love… it was the left foot which I still haven’t totally fell for. The left foot seems to have an issue with the material that provides a barrier and the roughness of the composite material. I pushed it into place with my finger and it’s not quite perfect but I am going to give it another week in hopes that with wear it will seat itself. That is my only issue. I tried another brand that ran big and this was my second choice. This one fits about right! Good luck and hope this helped.

The shoe is pretty but I did not know it felt like steel toe. I can’t wear steel tie shoes they seem so heavy. I had to return them for something else

I normally do not order a wide width, but with this shoe I should have. My three small toes, on both feet, hurt so bad! I love the color and style. I know NB shoes are very good, but I think it’s just the composite toe?

Totally love the shoe style and support it's a little snug but once broke in be fine feet feel so much better

I normally wear a 8 wide in New Balance shoes. I ordered my size. The shoes where very big. I thought it was because of the composite toes. I wore them 1 day and my feet moved around so much that my shins where hurting from not being able to walk correctly. I have to return them. They are stylish and have great arch support...just be sure to get the correct size.

There were no wide shoes available in my size. I was persuaded to try the extra wide and I was able to fit my custom orthotic and my gel cushion in with the original bottom support. They feel good. I had gotten Nautilus before. They fit good for about 2 months and then started to give me blisters.

I wear these at work for my 10 shift and I mostly just stand on my feet in this little cube. The shoes are good and my feet don’t hurt as bad as they did before in regular shoes. Sometimes my heels hurt, but like I said they don’t hurt nearly as bad as before, so they do good. I’m not sure any shoe wouldn’t hurt my feet after standing for 10 hours. The steel toe does make them bulky and I can see why people think they’re heavy. They do have some weight on them which I feel when I walk in them. I’m not sure how I would like them if I had to walk the whole time since they do have weight on them. But overall they are good, I got the extra wide width too because the steel toe takes up room in the toe section, so I’m very happy I got the extra wide width.
