Very comfortable for walking

These are my nursing shoes. I’m a CNA so I’m on my feet for 12 hrs at a time and let me tell you, I have no feet pain after work!! These are awesome. They do size a little big so size down when you order. Mine are a little big.

I wear New Balance runners for walking, which are much sturdier then these. These are cute shoes, comfy and great with jeans or tights. I would not use them for serious activities but are good for kicking about.

I bought this shoe because I loved last year’s version – I feared the new model wouldn’t be as comfortable but it has even improved! I love the wide toe box, excellent arch support (without being obtrusive or harsh), stability of my foot, the good tread on the shoe, and overall comfort. This is a shoe I could put on straight out of the box and wear all day – and that’s exactly what I did. At the end of the day, my feet do not hurt at all and I can’t remember when I could say that. I’m ordering more pairs. They REALLY ARE GREAT shoes!!

Nurse here, Im so thankful I found these shoes. I had been experiencing painful sore feet after my shifts and had been looking for a good pair of shoes. I had tried two other brands that coast $170 each which were very uncomfortable and the pain in my feet continued. Someone recommended these and I took a chance. These shoes are very comfortable, affordable and best of all my feet no longer hurt.

I have square-ish feet (not triangular or tapered like many dress shoes), so, I ordered these sneakers in a WIDE width, just to be sure. Still, they injured some of my toes (near the outer edges of me feet), due to a problem with New Balance sneakers that simply does not exist with brands like Nike.
From the outside, these sneakers appear to have an all-fabric top over the toe area, but those looks are deceiving!! The toe area is actually **lined** on the **inside** with a rigid, clear-plastic reinforcement layer, or bumper guard, along the tips or edges of the toes. It’s very hidden, barely visible (and not removable), but if you put your hand inside, you can feel it… and it will never ever stretch, or, in any way, conform to your foot as the shoe warms up. (And you are most likely to hit it going downhill.)
Maybe not an issue for everyone—depending on the shape of your feet—but certainly a significant problem for me.
It’s such a pity, because otherwise I like the look and feel of these sneakers (and, in just a half-size bigger, my foot is swimming in the shoe… which isn’t good either). Again, I’ve owned many pairs of Nikes over the years… and not one of them has ever had this glitch (of a rigid bumper or lining around the toes).
I already knew from painful experience in the past to steer clear of New Balance models with an outer ‘scuff bumper’—so, this time, I intentionally chose a style that appeared to have an **all-fabric** top over the toes. But the culprit was still there… merely hidden from sight, colorless, and buried on the inside!
This is such a deal breaker for me… as I mentioned, it really injured a couple of my outer toes—and it’s not as if you could ever break in that hard plastic, or make it more malleable and conforming, alas!

Quede encantada con estos tennis. Se siente que estás pisando nubes; son súper cómodos y amplios para quienes tenemos el pie ancho. Para correr, caminar o simplemente andar por la vida son buena elección. Tal vez no sean los tennis más hermosos del mundo pero cumplen su función de tennis unisex, que brinda confort y protección del pie. Pensando en hacerme de más pares de otros colores. Como siempre new balance no decepciona.

I bought these like 4 times before I kept a pair. They are very uncomfortable but something was wrong with every pair, like something hard in the heel on one. One pair the left and right shoes looked and felt like different sizes. In the end I’m a 5.5 and had to buy a 6, which is too big, but 5.5 is too small once I started walking in the only pair that had no structural issues. The cushion when walking is so incredible I overlook a ton of quality control issues. Oh, and I can’t wear these barefoot (my typical way in the summer) because the inside of the toe area is so rough, it’s getting cold here so I will be wearing socks now anyway. The most hit or miss pair of shoes I’ve ever kept, but really the cushion is worth the hassle if you have leg/back problems.

These are one of the most “true to size” NB pair of shoes I’ve bought! It’s the first time I’ve ordered them from Amazon and I’m so pleased!! Thank you!

These look great but I didn’t think they would be durable enough for a daily workout shoe so returned them. The fit was true to size, quality was good. I just need something more durable. I would totally wear for fashion though.
