Since this was my second pair of WR790, my review is positive. This shoe is lightweight, comfortable and the mesh covering keeps feet cool. 2008-07-28 16:55:49 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Oceanside, CA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Lightweight, perfect fit for trail shoe - Loved it. Super light, great for trail and street running. Buy a 1/2 size larger. Mesh makes shoes easy to clean and also helps stay cool.

I wore them all over London the first time out of the box - and wore them sockless and they did great. 2008-07-09 18:41:53 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: Regina from NY Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Comfortable - Nice looking, comfortable shoe. You might want to get a half size larger than what you normally wear. 2008-07-07 06:29:28 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Cleve, OH Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support WR790 review - I like this NB very much. Theyre better looking and lighter feeling than other NB's I have. This shoe can take my orthotic well.

These have to be the most form fitting, most comfortable NB I have owned to date. I love 'em.

This is a nice looking shoe. Nice weight, great color choices, comfortable. I wear it everyday for normal activity. I'm an under pronator and my custom orthotics do not fit this shoe. That's why I gave this shoe 4 stars instead of 5. I use a different shoe with a corrective arch and heel for serious workouts. 2008-06-28 09:43:24 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Georgia Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Great trail shoe - I love this shoe! Simply put it was easy to pack, comfortable to wear, and looked cool. It is a very light shoe with great grippers for rocky trails. 2008-06-25 06:57:05 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: Kim I from Ga Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support Nice look, but not great fit - I really liked the shoe, but it had no arch support for me. I recently started a boot camp class with running and needed a good shoe. This was not it. I ended up keeping the shoe and I ordered another brand from Zappos.

It has a tailored, sporty look with a roomy toe box, fits snugly at the ankle, and comes in multiple colors. Good value for the money. I wore off the tread before I wore out the body and that's with lots and lots of use.

They are SUPER light and they fit my narrow feet perfectly. I am between sizes 7.5 and 8, and I ordered up and they fit like a dream. I bought them in the color "surf" and they are so cute! I want to buy them in every color now! 2008-06-12 10:41:00 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Southern US Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Suitable for travel - I wore this shoe when touring Florence and Rome. It was okay, but probably would have been better if I had gotten one with more support in the arch and the heel. My orthotics would not fit it. No serious problems, however, and the shoe looks great in the Raspberry 08 colors. 2008-06-12 08:58:29 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: Busy M from CT Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Love Them!!! From the first time I tried them on, they were very comfortable. Did not need to be broken in. They were also lightweight and didn't feel like I had weights on my feet. I wore them a few days and decided I needed another pair in a different color. I highly recommend them. 2008-06-07 06:36:05 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from New York, NY Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Light and comfortable - These shoes are light as a feather and very comfortable. I just use them for walking and they are perfect. They keep my feet cool in the hot weather, and they also look great. 2008-06-02 12:55:50 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Oklahoma Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Awesome - These shoes are so great. I love them. I got the raspberry ones and they look so neat. Not to mention how comfortable they are. I have a lot of problems with my legs and have problems with clots so, these are awesome! I will definitely get another pair in the future. And of course Zappos makes it so simple. I had never ordered from them before and I was impressed all around. I looked around all over town and could not find this price! 2008-05-30 09:29:12 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: Nancy from Chicago, IL Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Aces - I have serious gait problems due to MS and I've been looking for a shoe that provides support without the weight that usually goes with it and this shoe is a perfect fit. It really is super lightweight, as advertised, yet supports like a heavier athletic shoe. 2008-05-30 06:31:29 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Chicago Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Good little walking shoe - I've been giving these shoes quite a work out during the past couple of weeks. Typically, I walk 4 miles on a rough gravel/large stone path. These shoes do the job of taking the jolts and cushioning my feet. I would buy them again. 2008-05-29 13:21:41 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Chicago, IL Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Lightest shoe ever! I received as a gift and I love them! They are so light - perfect to slide on and head out for a walk. 2008-05-28 07:26:34 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from San Marcos, TX Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a full size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Not Consistent from Color to Color! I ordered my usual New Balance size in the grey/purple color. They were too small and my toes were hitting the top of the shoe. After exchanging them for the next size up, I still had the same problem. The problem was that although the shoe "fit" there was no give. The material would not allow for that. HOWEVER, after returning the shoes, I found the same shoe in brown/raspberry in a store and they had a different material only in the toes!! I only had to go up a half size and the top of the shoe was a different material than the shoes that were grey/purple. The shoes are identical in every way except the material used for the top of the shoe. But now that I have my new shoes, I LOVE THEM! 2008-05-22 11:56:42 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: Fina from Long Island Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Love these - but order a 1/2 size bigger - Love these. Super lightweight. Great arch support for me. Cool looking without looking like I'm trying to be cool. Super soft mesh. All around, there's nothing I don't like. Just order 1/2 size larger. I am always a 7 but the 7-1/2 fits perfect. 2008-05-21 06:00:58 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: from Washington, DC Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support Great walking shoe for summer. Super lightweight and the mesh keeps your feet cool. Be sure to buy a 1/2 size larger than you normally would. Seems to run small and you will want the extra toe room for walking. 2008-05-20 09:04:18 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: Michelle from Montana Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support Not Quite What I Had Hoped For - This shoe is super cute, very light and would be great on race day and that's about it. It is comfy but not very durable. I went out for 2 easy short runs (about a mile each) and I didn't even run the whole way because I am just starting for the season and haven't run in over a year due to being pregnant so they were very easy paced runs. The heel is already starting to crease and wear down. I have had to buy a new pair of shoes that I can run in full time. I would be buying a new pair of shoes now anyway if I wore these to run in. I'm bummed because I love New Balance. They are very cute though and if you're not wanting to put miles on them they're great. 2008-05-15 07:36:49 New Balance WR790 Reviewer: Lorena R from Bayville, NY Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: No arch support Not happy - The sneaker is too small and has little support for a cross trainer. I will be returning the sneakers shortly.

I LOVE the color combinations and the style. I'd like to buy more colors soon. I bought both size 6 and 6.5 after reading the reviews but found the 6 (which is my normal size) to be more supportive and a better width for my narrow foot. The big toe is a bit short but not that different from the 6.5, which my thin foot kinda swam in. I'm very happy!
