They are roomy in the toe and provide great support and cushioning. 2008-08-04 23:09:55 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from NYC Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support I dance and run 40 hours a week. This shoe is rather heavy in the sole, I'm not used to that and I feel like my ankles are not happy because of the extra weight. They are a comfortable fit and have good arch support. They feel pretty good when I do leaps but they feel clunky when I dance. 2008-07-19 08:11:23 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Anonymous from Pennsylvania Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Excellent! The first time I put on these shoes, I felt they would do the running for me. The shoes helped me walk faster than I imagined. I walked all over Europe in these shoes and they don't show any wear. I would highly recommend these shoes to anyone who plans to walk a great deal. You won't go wrong with them.

I also wear them for long walks and they feel like you are walking on air. Awesome!!! 2008-06-26 08:21:52 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Tish from Folsom, LA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Comfort and support - I bought these shoes to wear for work. The colors go with my scrubs. I am extremely pleased with the comfort and support they provide me. 2008-06-22 18:30:51 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from Boston Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support A heavy sneaker, but good support for the supinator. Not the most fashion forward! Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Brooks 2008-06-21 11:14:26 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from Georgia Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Disappointed - Although this shoe is nice looking, I found not good for walking. Too much room in the front. I could just have ordered the wrong size, but did not work for the use I had intended. 2008-06-20 06:02:39 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Abby from Brockton, MA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Very pleased - I love these shoes. I have a wide foot that is hard to fit and these sneakers are extremely comfortable. Very happy!!! 2008-06-19 10:20:23 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Anonymous from Santa Barbara, CA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Comfortable but not what I expected - These are running shoes, which is more about comfort and performance than looks. I was looking for neutral grey gym sneakers to replace my old New Balance 470s. So I ordered the grey/pink pair of the WR8508. I was disappointed when I took them out of the box they were more shiny and metallic silver than grey. The pink hollow heel looked kind of weird too. I wanted a shoe that I could wear with jeans to work, in addition to wearing to the gym and these just looked too ridiculous for my taste, so I had to return them. Otherwise, they were very comfortable and lightweight. 2008-06-07 07:12:26 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Marsha from Wickes, AR Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Teenage daughter loves them. I purchased the white/blue shoes for my teenage daughter. She said that they are the most comfortable shoes that she's ever had. They look great. As always, very prompt delivery. 2008-06-03 16:40:44 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from Orlando, Florida Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Great shoe - I own several pairs of New Balance, and I think this will become my fav. They felt great the 1st time I put them on. I have a heel spur and it didn't bother me wearing these shoes. 2008-06-03 12:08:42 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Laurie from Indiana Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support I have happy feet! Love these shoes! So happy to find a wide width. Very easy to break in too. Zappos your shipping rocks! 2008-06-03 06:49:28 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Sara from Connecticut Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Very comfortable - and stylish too - I needed new sneakers for the gym but I was really sick of the typical ugly "white plus another color" women's sneakers. Since my gym pants are generally black I got these and they look great. More importantly though they are very comfortable! I have multiple problems with my feet so it's tough to find good sneakers for me. I definitely recommend these. 2008-05-27 13:02:04 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Lori from Woodstock, IL Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support New Balance WR8508 - Finally, after ordering and returning literally 100 pairs of shoes, these NB are the greatest! I have had surgery for a neuroma (which didn't really help), so finding comfortable shoes is VERY difficult. These shoes were just great, and no break in time needed. Zappos has been SO GREAT in that I've had to return more pairs than I've kept. So, thanks, Zappos for your great service.

This one is very stylish! The white/blue looks more like white/aqua or turquoise on my screen and that is what I wanted and that is what I got! The blue is a very soft, greenish blue. Very pretty and trendy for this summer. The shoe is very attractive, even on my wide foot is well made and well cushioned, yet supportive. In NB, I usually wear an 8.5EE or 9 wide, so I ordered these in the 9W. Out of the box they fit great and the toe box was very roomy, but now that I've worn them a few times, I think I could have gone down a 1/2 size to the 8.5W in this shoe. I wore these all over France and did a lot of walking and my feet never complained. I like them so much, I am considering buying it in more colors. 2008-05-15 05:38:19 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Geneva from Eastern Indiana Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support I had never worn athletic shoes before. My daughter bought me these shoes and told me they would help my endurance. My back and feet feel much better when I take my walks. I am 70 years old. Thank you! 2008-05-13 20:00:30 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Great looking shoe. The fit is very snug which is great for running. 2008-05-11 05:05:54 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from Maryland Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width A Definite Keeper! Shoes needed ZERO break-in time and are great in the gym or out walking. Zappos service was terrific, as always! 2008-04-30 04:14:15 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Sheila from Michigan Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support New Balance WR8508 - The shoes are great. The quality is durable and well made, very comfortable and they are really cute. These are my fourth pair of New Balance and each time I've not been disappointed. I wear a size 7 with a B width. 2008-04-29 14:20:14 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: Taaz23 from Kansas Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Wonderful Shoe! This was probably the best shoe buying experience I have had. This shoe is wonderful, I love the way it fits and looks. I have been looking for about 6 months and I finally found what I wanted.

I have a high arch and short Achilles heel, and these are the most comfortable shoes I have found in years! Zappos was great, as they even shipped earlier than scheduled. 2008-04-08 08:33:26 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from Dallas, Tx Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Love the technology of this shoe! This is my second pair. It's a great running shoe, you can really feel a difference. As a massage therapist on my feet all day, they're great for work also. Keep me updated on new styles!

I also walked two miles (fast) in these shoes straight outta da box! No problems with fit or style, and they remained comfortable the rest of the day. I got the pink/gray, very cute! I can highly recommend these shoes! Other shoes recommended by reviewer: only new balance for me 2008-03-27 17:58:31 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from Seattle, WA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Beautiful show...too tight - I am a supinator and wear a 10.5 Wide. I bought these 8508's and the 8507's (both in black). Out of the box I liked the look of these better. More sleek, less *sloppy*. When I received them I put one of each on and wore them for a few hours, changed feet and wore them for a while longer. These 8508's were smaller in the toe box. My toes got a tad tingly, so I know if I were exercising/sweating, they'd become too tight. I'm keeping the more *sloppy* looking 8507's - they were 100% comfortable for me! 2008-03-26 13:22:44 New Balance WR8508 Reviewer: from Millsboro,Delaware Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Great New Balance - Great Fit!! Very nice shoe stylish and not clunky. The white/blue the blue is more a teal. Walked 2 miles right out of the box and there was no break in time.
