Best shoe ever!!! My arches were in so much pain until I put this style on and wore them to work. I couldn’t be more pleased with a shoe! For me, this is heaven.

My favorite shoe - This is my 4th or 5th pair of New Balance shoes. They have a nice fit for my wide foot and high instep. I am overweight and need a good shoe. New Balance is well constructed and comfortable. I like to get the white, but will be trying another color the next time. I keep my old ones for working on the farm. My new ones are kept for "good". They never wear out!

First pair of shoes that fit me just right with the UCBL - The 926D shoes were comfortably wide and long enough to accommodate my UCBL orthotic. Did not need to take a bigger size for the length. First pair of shoes I did not have to return in 8 months. I am grateful for these shoes...

I broke a foot and needed a shoe to wear after the cast. This shoe provides support and is comfortable. I'll keep wearing it while volunteering in a job that requires black shoes and a lot of standing. I can't honestly rate the sizing as I am wearing an elastic wrap on one foot. It seems roomy. It's from an SL-2 last.

Do you have plantar fasciitis? These may not turn any heads as you stroll along, but you will be able to stroll in less pain! I have a wide foot and use a custom orthodic. The foot bed of the shoe comes out and my orthodic fit perfectly. If you are just learning about care for a plantar fasciitis condition, this shoe has a great toe box (design in the front) and the roll bar helps to keep the heel stable. I tried them on at a retailer first and the sizing was true to fit for me. Take care of your feet! Be blessed!

It was suggested to me to buy this shoe to wear with an orthotic. The shoe is comfortable without the orthotic, but not with… it feels too small.

Great Shoes! Even if I'm only using one for now! I broke my right leg, and when I was fitted with my "boot" after surgery, I needed a shoe that had a high enough sole so that my hip wouldn't hurt when I walked. The New Balance WW926 is great! It provides plenty of support, handles my orthotic well, and was comfortable within two days of wearing it. Pretty soon I'll be breaking in the other shoe, but I don't think it will be a problem at all. I love New Balance and will buy again and again.

Awesome! I just purchased my 2nd pair of these. True, they aren't the most attractive athletic shoe, but the comfort and durability outweigh that. I wear them every day since I am on my feet constantly. My first pair is still in good condition even though I wore them daily for more than a year. I would highly recommend them to anybody. New Balance has never let me down.

Practical but my size. Because I have health issues and problems with my feet, it is necessary for me to buy supportive shoes that are not usually fashionable. My shoe size is 5 1/2 double wide and impossible to buy anywhere. I have been buying shoes that were not my size and being uncomfortable as my size has not been available to me. I recently have found Zappos.com and was surprised to see 5 1/2 double wides listed. I figured when I tried to order I would be told that size was not available. That did not happen. Then my shipping was ungraded at no extra cost to me which I thought was very nice of Zappos to do.

The most comfortable shoe I've ever worn - I have a lot of trouble with my feet--high arches, wide width, painful ball of the foot and frequent plantar fasciitis and heel spurs. I ordered several pairs of shoes for a trip to Europe, and these were the ones I decided on because they were so comfortable from the moment I put them on. I always take several pairs of walking shoes on a trip so I can change out as my feet start to hurt, but my feet did not hurt at all in these, and I only changed shoes if I needed something dressier. I have worn New Balance 843 for years, but it was not available in black. I'm really glad, because this shoe is even more comfortable than the 843. I had a great trip thanks to New Balance and Zappos.

Great shoe for narrow, flat feet - I have narrow and flat feet. After several knee surgeries and years of chronic lower back pain, my chiropractor suggested a New Balance shoe for walking - numbered at least 800. After reviewing the other comments about many shoes on Zappos.com, I selected the 926. I am pleased with this choice, although the heel on one shoe slips a little. I ordered 9.5 N. I will wear a thicker sock on the foot with heel slippage. No more back pain, much better posture and can walk at a faster pace. Thanks, Zappos, for making the customer reviews available!

Wonderful Shoe - These shoes have been wonderful for me. I have to wear custom orthotics due to plantar fasciitis, and I always had to buy wide shoes to accommodate them. That was a problem since I have narrow heels. These shoes have wide, deep toes, but the heel area is not wide. There is plenty of room for my orthotic and I can even put the padded insole back in on top for added cushioning. I am able to wear my regular size of 9B. The shoe is super comfortable right out of the box.

Painful to Wear - Conventional wisdom often suggests that the uglier and clunkier the shoe, the more comfort it provides. Well, in this case that statement is simply not true. I was literally in tears after wearing these shoes for only four hours. I have a large bunion on my left foot which was irritated horribly by these shoes and I have a painful heel spur on my right heel that was not feeling any relief after trying these shoes, despite my doctor promising me that this particular style of New Balance Walking Shoe would bring me relief from my chronic pain. I cannot seem to find a shoe that works for me that I can wear all day long. If NB doesn't work for me, what will? I'm open to any readers of this review who may have some suggestions for me that might work. That said, Zappos is still the best shoe business out there and I have no issues with their service at all. They are the best.

Great Shoes! I had just gotten back from the podiatrist with diagnosis of several foot problems – morton’s neuroma, falling arch, and pronation - and went through the recommendations on the New Balance shoe and found that the WW926 made from the SL-2 last would be helpful for all three of those problems. SO I ordered. Typically I have had trouble finding my size shoes in comfortable styles locally, so didn't bother to even try local stores. Next day they arrived. Great shoes! Very good cushioning (firm yet “gives” a little). Supportive arch, nice wide toe box for the morton's problem, and a very nice fitting snug heel. They also have a nice roll forward effect when you walk that keeps your foot in line without rolling side to side. They are a bit heavy looking as I have big feet (size 41), but look like they will last a long time. If I don't look at my feet when I walk though, I think that I'm in heaven. Zappos’ phone help was very helpful, I will order again when I can save up to buy another pair. Fast delivery - express at no extra charge was wonderful. Thank you!

Stable walking shoe - VERY stable wide walking shoe with solid "wedge"-like sole. Feels truer to size than previous New Balance shoes owned - I ordered the usual half size up & wider, but probably would have preferred my "normal" size (will wear with heavier sox). Lots of cushion for pavement or paths, but not a "country" walking shoe (not a lot of traction).

This is a good, stable walking shoe. The width is true to size; I bought a double wide and it was perfect from the first day. The length is a bit short. While I generally wear an 8.5 double wide in that length, my toe hit the shoe, so I returned it for the 9 double wide. That is great. Zappos is a wonderful company.

Disappointed - Let me begin by saying I have terrible feet and I have had problems with my feet for about 5 years. After walking in these shoes for one hour I was in pain, my left foot did not have enough of an arch support and my right foot had metatarsal pain. New Balance makes good shoes, I just have very bad feet. If you have problem feet, I would not recommend these.

Helpful shoe - I have Morton's Neuroma, so I purchased this shoe to help me be comfortable enough to get walking again. I believe it does provide the support needed to ease the pain, however, I find that it runs slightly narrow. It does look orthopedic, but that is a small price to pay for some comfort.

Pleased wearer of new balance - I've worn New Balance shoes for many years – no other athletic shoes compare to the comfort and support for my feet. I have a narrow foot and 2A is the best fit for me. I wish New Balance would make a narrow sandal with arch support for people like me.

New Balance Review - The shoes were purchased to fit my swollen foot that was recovering from bunion surgery. The shoes were 1/2 size longer and wider than my usual shoes. They fit my foot perfectly. The only thing I wish the shoe had was more of an arch support. They will be good walking shoes for me.
